Comp cutting tires.

Who has done this themselfs? Got a set of 26 inch Stu blasters I’m wanting to try this on because of the price I got them at. Mainly concerned about the depth of the cut before seeing cords. Anyone?

97 Polaris Xplorer 500 pressurized/leaking antifreeze reservoir

OK guys,

I have a pressured AND leaking antifreeze reservoir. I do believe I have the same issue as a guy that posted 2 years ago ("1999 sportsman 500 coolant reservoir filling up"). I would like some of the experienced guys in this area to hopefully reply to some of the questions below.

PLEASE KNOW that I did notice this a few rides back but I don't believe it leaked or if it did, it tried up to look like it didn't leak. But I have not driven hours upon hours since I noticed it, it's more like take it to deer lease, but a few miles on it at a time. Shut it off several hours... sort of like morning work around and evening work around and the rest is just setting.

I plan on diving in tearing the top end apart and removing the head and checking things.

Now:

Question 1: Does anyone know how to check if it is in the oil? Other than the obvious, Drain it see if it looks thin...

Question 2: What else should I be looking for when i tear the top end down?

Question 3: Being this thing is a good 22 years old, should I replace the water pump/thermostat etc?

Question 4: I read the post mentioned above that the coolant can cause major issue in the cylinder?.? Can someone with experience speak to that and explain that to me in a Do It Yourself verbiage? hehehe.


I'm going into this COMPLETELY learning as I go. So ANY information will not be wasted. i'm not afraid to pull apart a 4 wheeler at all but aside from pulling the head, replacing gasket and head, i'm not familiar on the 'dos and donts' on atv top end work.

Intro…

Hey all, I'm Tony and I live in Vaudreuil, Quebec, Canada. It's just outside of Montreal.
I don't have a quad yet, but I'm shopping....
I have ridden quads in the past, but never owned one of my own.
I grew up on BMX bikes and motocross.
I switched to DH mountain biking and when my daughter was born, I just didn't have the same drive. I just wanted to be with her.
As she grew a bit, I finally got my moto permit and I'm currently riding an FZ-09. It's fun, but my wife is scared of bikes and won't go near one.
Quads however, have 4 wheels and that's "safer" in her mind. If she only knew....LOL
Sooooo....Yeah. I'm in the market for a quad or two. Probably 2, but it might end up as an ATV and a SxS, who knows.
Currently have my eye on an Outlander Max North Edition as it has heated grips (also on the rear grips) for the Winter months for the wife and mini.
Probably a Renegade XXC or XMR for me. Not sure which way I want to go. I've mainly ridden sport quads (Quadracers, 250Rs, etc), and I just love pitching a quad sideways.
Feel free to ask me anything...
