I have recently purchased a 2014 Polaris sportsman 570 and I rode for hours with no issue what so ever. I decided to take the bike through some water maybe midway up the tires going about 5 miles an hour. Once I got out the water the bike began to lose power and would not go over 10 mph it eventually kills and I have to wait a few minutes before it starts up. After I kept driving to get back to the house I parked it and cleaned it off real good. I then washed it and started it back up and for some reason after washing it the bike runs perfectly fine again until I go back into the water. Please help

I'm probably getting some new wheels in a few weeks (Happy B'day to me, LOL). My tires are still in really good shape for now. So, I'll want those swapped to the new wheels. Should I take everything to the dealer to swap them? Or should I just go up to the corner tire shop and have it done there? Reason I'm wondering this... is there like a special machine to break the tires down and remount them, being that everything is smaller? Or... it doesn't matter?

Hello All,

I had a breif look on the forum but couldn't find this topic posted. I am running Apache 360 LTs on my outlander 1000 and find that my belt slips almost right away. The problem only gets worse as the season goes on. I have moved to a maverick belt but that didn't help. Any suggestions on clutch work that might help? Any of you guys out there do clutch work before installing tracks or does everyone just run the stock setup?

Hello Everyone:

I have a 2018 Can Am Defender HD10. Is there a special tool I will need to change out drive belt when the time comes to change it.

I pulled the belt cover off and I do not see how to release tension on secondary clutch.

Thanks

My 700 sportsman began bogging badly and when I pulled the carb off I found the spring on top of the main jet diaphragm sideways. I replaced it correctly and cleaned the entire carb out and now it is doing the same thing. It will run fine for about 1/4 throttle but as you accelerate it begins to bog and occasionally backfires. I have bypassed the fuel pump by running a fuel line from the tank to the carb. There seems to be a lot of blow by coming from the crankcase vent that goes to the air box. The atv has been very well cared for, not modified or run hard. The guy who owns it is older and never ran it over 25 mph if I had to guess. Always stored inside. I have run it with the air box off and tried to look inside the carb and it doesn't seem that the slide for the main jet is moving very much, not sure how much it should move. I have pulled the choke out when it bogs and it doesn't help. When it bogs down there is a strong smell of gasoline. My next step is to do compression test. Please help me..............

I turn the key and I get nothing I checked with them altimeter and do have power to the fuse box I do have power to the DC ignition cigarette lighter however there is no power to the instrument display. I have power to cigarette lighter , and ignition switch just no power to panel ? Also no fuel pump activity nothing ,,, sorry if I repeated my self just stuck

Gas is dripping out of the vent tube that hangs out the bottom of the skid plate. I put gas in the tank and it drips out of the tube until it is empty. What would cause this to happen?
