My son has a 2016 Sportsman 110 EFI. The other day the check engine light came on. I started it up and the light was off. I let the bike warm up then started to ride it. The light came on. Then it went off. I put the bike in neutral and revved it up a bit. Light never came on. I pulled the clutch in and the light would try to come on but then go out. Never really quite lit completely. When you ride it the light stays on for a moment then goes out. The manual says if it blinks it may be over heating. If it stays lit see the dealer. I checked for loose connections. Oil and trans are full. Spark plug is new. I'm at a loss. No screen to give codes. He just rides in the yard. Not on trails or through mud and water. I called the dealer and asked if there was something else to look for and they said they have no idea what it could be that I had to bring it in. They offered no insight. The dealer wants $97.00 to diagnose. Then another $97.00 per hour to make repairs plus materials. I'll take it to the dealer when my means are exhausted.

Sportsman 500 HO Starving for fuel
I have a 2004 Sportsman 500 HO ATP with less than 600hrs that has been flawless since I purchased. I've only had to replace 1 CV boot and a starter relay. The rear foot brake rusted so I disconnected it but not hindering performance. I use this for travel to/from the woods and game retrieval during hunting season. Stored indoors. About a month ago I was riding around and when I went to idle the engine stalled. I tried to restart and it acted as though it was fuel starved. Tried to fire but backfired or would not stay running. Very hot day 100+ and thought I may have vapor lock. Let it sit a couple minutes and it started it up and ran another 1/4 mile before I stopped to check a trail camera. Engine died and would not restart with same symptoms. Few minutes later it restarted and I drove it home 1 mile with no issue. Full fuel tank, checked the fuel cap to make sure it was not to tight and getting a vacuum lock. Later it started and I was able to load and trailer home. Replaced the fuel filter with a larger see through filter and replaced the fuel pump when the filter did not solve the issue. Disconnecting the fuel lines replacing the pump produced good flow but have not pulled the line off the carb to see how the fuel pump is pushing to the carb. The behavior seems to be dry carb. Once the bowl fills up it runs until dry.
Before I pull the carb for a rebuild/clean, anyone have any suggestions besides checking the new pump is working and fuel is getting to the carb?
Thanks in advance.

battery toast after 8 months?
yuasa. atv used maybe 1x per week on average. lots of shorter runs. i understand that it drains the batt, but now tickle charger will show after 5min, and I can get 1 crank if i'm lucky.
disappointed....I mean those things are not that expensive....
what is a good brand to replace it with? (no yuasa please)

New to Polaris, not to ATVs.
Just picked up a 99 Sportsman 335 for $900, needs alittle work but seems to have a strong motor.
Sure I will have questions.

Vintage Two-Stroke Racing at Redbud National + Video
Vintage Two-Stroke Racing at Redbud National + VideoIt’s been a lot of years since we’ve seen (and heard) this many 25oRs lined up at an ATV national and we’ve got to admit, we kind of miss it. It was very cool of the series to host some vintage two-stroke racing last weekend during the Redbud national motocross race. more
My 1000R finally here – first mods
Hey everyone. Was a long wait for me but my 1000R XTP is finally here halfway around the world.
Just wanted to share my first mods, replacing all front low beam and high beams with CSP LEDs. So that means i will be drawing 100W (25w x 4) vs 240W (55W low beam x 2, 65W high beam x 2). But i then added a 60W light bar too.
My first complaint is hot left foot... I need to do something about it but I see many topics about this already, I didn't want to do something too elaborate though.
