How much play is acceptable on front bearings? I know the hub will move a little bit, but how much is too much?

Does anyone know what a 2002 sportsman 500 (freedom edition) with 500 miles is worth?

I have read a bunch of posts on this but nothing seems to fit just right so I figured I would just ask. My budy has a new 570 with about 50 miles on it. I went through a mud hole with my grizzly and he was following me when his quad quit. Once I pulled him out it started right up. He had the exact same issue last summer on his 2011 500 HO in the same hole. There was no water in the air box. With both quads he went though deep water and mud without it stalling and 2 other 570s went through that hole with me in May and did not die. With the 500 he entered slow and with the 570 he was going faster. He was on the throttle when the 570 died starting to come up. Any ideas as to why both quads would act the same way with this hole but not die in the other ones?

Thanks.

Has anybody put led bulbs on their sportsman? I want to change the stock lights out for led just want to make sure its worth it?

The dealer has a 2016 650 max xt with 26 miles on it that he bought back from a customer with hardship issues. I told him I would take it test rode it and a 2017 both seemed to sound and handle the same for the little I rode them. Now I am reading about rear differential problems, it is not too late for me to cancel. My wife and I really liked the two up feature as few manufacturers offer it the machine is beautiful we have been looking at them for a few years now. Sorry for joining and having a slightly negative first post but really can't afford to buy a machine and have to throw a lot of money at it later on, really thought it would be a good machine. We were going to pick it up this Friday were also looking at side by sides but they all seem a little on the noisy side. Please advise what do you think we should do firs impression we loved the machine had a few Hondas in the past but they don't offer a two up machine. He is giving us a six month warranty on the machine.

Hey first post here, new to the Polaris scene. I have acquired a 2007 Polaris MV700. It is missing the carburetor. Can anyone tell me if this will be a model specific carburetor or can I use one from another Sportsman model? I have tried to search to see what the differences were, but, couldn't find anything to really tell me. Thanks

Hello,
New to the site so am looking forward to sharing and learning.

What brought me to you is my 2001 Traxter XL. Good old quad I use for utility work on my property. This weekend, while I was moving slow in 2nd gear the engine quit. When trying to restart I noticed none of the indicator lights worked, the head lights didn't work, nothing powered by the key seemed to be getting power (the aux power plug-in still had power). I checked the fuses and they are all ok. I tested the starter switch and it seems to be ok. I am able to make it turn over by jumping the solenoid. I am hoping its not the MPEM ECM Module (as I see they go for $800). Any suggestions or insights are appreciated.

Im looking for a 2 inch hitch that will mount above my 1.25 inch receiver. I don't want one of those adapters. I'm looking for something that will mount to the frame. I want my trailer to be more lvl when towing.

I want to know what others have done to solve this issue.

I was looking at this Quadboss 2" receiver. It seems like it will work, but I am unfamiliar with this company, and I did not come across any reviews online. I am just looking for some quality that will last.

You guys with the hitch on the renegade. How are they holding up? Im a bit concerned about bolting it to the rear diff like that. Ive read a few posts about the diff breaking where the bolts go through it. I dont plan on abusing the tow hitch at all, but need to know if it can take it if it happens. Thanks :th_ATVsmiley:
