Starting issue help!!!

I have a 98 sportsman 500

I push the button to start it up and it will crank but then stop. Feels like battery is dead. Check battery and has good power in it. I did replace the voltage regulator a couple of years ago and could have been a cheap chinese one but not sure. could it be decompression because quad has been sitting for a year or so.. When i pull the starter it is hard to pull but will fire right up. any ideas before i go into the motor for this decompression spring i am hearing about or could it be electrical?

QSC clutch kit

I just got my kit in the mail. I honestly have never clutched any of my previous machines and do not know much about it at all. I’ll be having the shop install it. As you can see my secondary spring is silver/orange. They have written down that it’s silver/green. I’m wondering which is correct? Did they write it down wrong or give me the wrong spring? It’s for a 18 sportsman 1000 with 26” tires. I was hoping someone here has installed this kit and can tell me what color the spring was. I’ll obviously contact RVS but they won’t be open till Monday now.

I keep trashing belts!

I know this is a worn out question, but I'm at a lost! 2006 sportsman 800 that is used primarily as a heavy mud and water ride. most of the time I'm under 15 mph, 90% of my riding is done in low. EPI mudder clutch kit for up to 29.5 tires, clutches cleaned and properly aligned, snorkeled right and tight, so never any water in housing! she never creeps and shifting is easy and smooth.......But she keeps blowing belts! I't has to be something and it's become a pain in the..........Any help will be appreciated!

Vin says 6×6 but only has 4 wheels

I need to know more about my atv iv never owned one before and this on is a fixer upper. More of a project for my boyfriend. I looked up the vin and it says it's a 03 polaris sportsman 6x6 but it only has 4 wheels. And I'm not sure what cc it is either I think it's 400. What other numbers can I use to identify which exact atv I have. Where is the model number located. There is no plastic on the atv either so hard to compare with photos

Plans for Winter

In the winter after snow falls I can't ride my machine (I have no interest in getting tracks at this time). My machine is 2018 Renegade 1000 XXC Triple Black. Currently I am planning on getting some work done. Figure I'll send my ECU to Monster EFI to be flashed, get a new primary CVTech or STM (likely keep stock secondary) and then wanted to have my bike dyno tuned. I have a PCV, exhaust, snorkel now.

Question 1: Where is the closest ATV dyno shop to Maine? I've struck out in New England, just need to know where I can trailer it.
Question 2: Should I have it dyno tuned before having my ECU flashed? I figured it would be better to do after but thought I'd ask.
Question 3: See my sig I have a lot of mods now but what other mods would you guys suggest? I was considering 1" wheel spacers for improved handling.
