Has anyone seen this after they pulled out their spark arrestor.
Looks like the muffler packing is plugging up my arrestor.
Less than 300 miles on the bike.

Flagship Ranger gets redesigned for 2018

Polaris Ranger is the industry’s No.1-selling utility side-by-side (SxS), offering the hardest working, smoothest riding family of vehicles for hunters, farmers, homeowners and recreation enthusiasts. For Model Year 2018, Polaris has set a new standard in utility side-by-sides with the introduction of the all-new Ranger XP 1000.

Additionally, redesigned under-hood air intakes and a new clutch cover provide increased air flow for cooler, longer-lasting belt life.

Hi all,
attached is a photo of under the hood of the 04 sportsman 700 that I picked up two weeks ago.

The machine runs but doesn't charge the battery. I opened up to find the problem I thought I'd change the rectifier and I see the 3 yellow and 1 red wires coming from the rectifier werent even connected.

not only that but I see five (yes five I cant believe it) connectors that aren't connected to anything-highlighted in the green arrows in the photo. That seems crazy to me, could this be why its not charging even after I connected the yellow wires as seen in the photo? theres a red wire coming from the rectifier I'm wondering where that one is supposed to go, same for the other four loose connectors.

the attached photo is high res, I'm hoping somone can help me straighten this thing out, I'd like to get it charging.

(dvom between each of the yellow wires and a ground got me 5, 7 and 10 volts coming from the stator)
(right clicking on thumbnail and hitting "open in new window" will get you a very nice and clear full screen photo as its very high resolution)

OK guys I know this has been answered 1000 times. I have 3 sportsmans that I want to put 26" tires on 14" rims. I don't want to have to use spacers, or do anything special, just want to bolt them on and not have to worry about them rubbing. I ride with my family most of the time 95% of the riding we do is on logging roads, fire roads, seasonal roads. The other 5% of my riding I like to spend some time in the mud. What tire out of the bear claw htr, mud lites or zillas would be best for my riding style, or are there any others out there? I don't want to do anything to hurt the performance of the atv, just would like to improve it a little. LIke I said we do a lot of groomed trail style riding, so Id like a tire you could whip around with that wouldn't give you that rough choppy ride. But can handle some mud also on occasions. Thanks

Looking for some suggestions for a set of tires for my Sportsman 570 that are not too aggressive, I basically just use my quad for utility use around my property and plowing in the winter. I have a set of ITP Mega Mayhems for plowing snow, so I'm looking for something that won't tear up my yard too much. I got the Mayhems with the quad when I got it so, I want something for everything else. please let me know what the best thing out there! Thanks in advance!
