2006 50cc

Heyy out there. I'm new here and in desperate need of assistance with my sons 2006 predator 50cc. I went to change the gearbox oil and I noticed through the sight window that it's all pink. Can I drain it and start over with fresh fluid any help with this issue is appreciated.

does anyone know what this junction valve is? left side of machine, in the picture the two hoses to the left are fine. i need the hose to the far right that still has the factory clamp on it. not a great picture, sorry. hose must be seeping oil, it goes from here up to a white plastic valve that looks almost like an inline fuel filter but isn't. need to get one, no idea what to call it. it was probably a molded hose and is now too rubbery from being oil soaked.thanks for any help. i circled the hose i need, can get better pic if need be.

2017 570SP backlight

My blue backlight on my sportsman display stopped working this weekend. I was able to switch over to red, but now I need to fix the blue backlight. Searches of this forum are not returning much helpful info, as almost all of the threads deal with the entire speedo pod not working in some way.

I assume, because the speedo pod works just fine, that this is just the blue bulb/diode that gave up and not a fuse or wire issue. Any advice or direction from the crew on this?

Thanks as always for the help, over the years you all have saved my bacon a few times. Hoping this is another one of those times!!

Battery maintainer

I’m picking up my new sportsman 450 next week and looking to install a quick connect for my battery maintainer with the battery located underneath the vehicle connecting up the charger will be a little bit of a hassle Can anyone tell me if there is a battery bus bar located closer to the storage container up front where I can connect up the ring terminals?
Thank you
