I'd first like to say hello to everyone as I just joined this forum and recently joined the predator’s owners club! The only issue is the engine is blown in mine and has a big hole in the crank case. Also I have a bent valve and the bottom end is junk. Luckily I found a 2004 engine that's...

A couple of months ago I bought a used 2010 sportsman 850 touring, that was already modded for the mud. I thought it would be ready for the mud since the listing said ready for mud....So I go riding, nothing seems out of place except for a little random stalling on dry ground, I didn't think...

My mother has a Sportsman 500, 2008 with barely 300km. One of her friend was driving it to the garage to get the oil changed when the engine died after roughly 1,000 feet and it doesn’t start anymore. I took the machine to the dealer who says that there is barely any compression at all. He...

1st time in one myself, it has been into before (i think (blue atv at gaskets)). Questions: 1. Does the piston look ok or should I change it. 2. I thought I was going to find a badly burned piston - what I found was the upper and lower bolts were not tight at all. I think the banging I was...

Hello Folks, Last week I purchased a 2005 Scrambler 500HO off some fellow in the military. He stated that the bike had been sitting for a while and he was taking off to Guam in 3 weeks and just wanted to get rid of it. I made him an offer and he handed me the key. At the time, the bike was...

Hey guys i am having trouble with my 2002 500 Ho sportsman. The clutch will not completely disengage and keeps enough grip to move it and makes it extremely hard to shift into gear. I took it apart, and the part that the belt rides on in the clutch free spins and moves a little left and right...

I have an 05 sportsman 700 EFI. recently it has been having heat issues. I would ride it for maybe 2 minutes and it would be flashing HOT. the last time out I got back and some smoke/steam was rolling out of the fenders, and some out of the air box. I shut it off and let it sit, then started it...

I have a 2001 sportsman 400 and I'm having trouble getting it to start. I tried using the starter button but that didn't work, but I could start it with the pull cord.

I have a 1997 / 1996 model 425 Magnum (Norwegian model). It (the engine) has suddenly started to run quite bad. It starts perfect, on idle it runs so nice, but when I give more trottle then it starts running really bad. To me it seems like there are either something wrong with the carburator or...
