Replaced my stator magneto. All wires are plugged except a brown plug that is jumping off a wire to the speedo. Anyone help with where this might go?

I recently purchased a 2007 outlaw 525. Have had it for about two weeks and it has been running great. I was riding it one day and i went to take off in 1st gear and stalled it. After that the starter wouldnt engage on the flywheel so i tried to bump start it by just pushing it in 3rd gear. I tried it and when i let go of the clutch the wheels kept turning like it was in neautral. Nothing sounded like it broke or popped it was just quiet and kept rolling. Now I can put it in any gear and it will act like it is in neautral even with the clutch out. The sarter will still not engage eathier. Any help would be greatly appreciated as i cannot find much online about this. Thanks again

My buddy just picked up a 93 trail boss 250 4x4 yesterday for super cheap, it's in nice shape but someone disassembled the starter and pull start for whatever reason. We compression tested it and it was just above 90psi.... tons of spark, cleaned the carb and had fresh gas... it wouldn't even try to start even with ether.... not sure if this is one of those 4 wheelers that needs a good battery to run properly? It doesn't have a battery in it right now. However we do have a new starter and battery on the way... just unsure if I should have him order rings and gaskets too or not...

For you Touring owners, have any of you installed audio? Preferably with BlueTooth? Would be real interested in hearing what you ended up doing. Great to see pictures also...

I just purchased a 01 Sportsman 500. I purchased it from the original owner and it has been maintained VERY well.

Any advice is welcome, but I just wanted to say hey.

Hi, I have a strange fault developed on my bike and would welcome any comments on the possible cause.
It cuts out on right hand cornering but restarts when the steering is in the straight ahead position or turned to the left while still in motion. So far I have replaced the fuel pump, three sensors and various breather valves that are in the fuel line. The fault only seems to occur after a couple of hours running when the bike is hot and fuel has gone down to 3/4 full.
after it has been stood for 30 mins or so it runs fine again. I have also noticed the tank seems to pressurise. If anyone has had anything similar to this and found the fault please pass it on, I am starting to tear my hair out. :-( I should add the bike is run in 35 degree temp as I live in Cyprus.
Thanks Gladders.

Anybody know of any xc or hare scramble races near south east ky? Plan on setting my Predator up for some of those types of races. Anybody race the VXCS series or the VCHSS series, or know if there's any GNCC tracks pretty close? Don't really care if I win or not it's just something I've always wanted to do and for fun.
