New to Me anyway

Picked up a 11' 800 LE,   needs soom tlc  so ill be lookin for your advice Mr, Ed

 

Nice looking machine Gary

I'll help you where I can. If you need my # PM me

Thanks!

Mr Ed, its all stock, intake, exhaust ect. Anything i need to change or modify for protection?
Air filter looked fine, but dont like the intake between the seats. I did work my way to the belt, looks ok, no mud in the box. it has 1400 miles on it, not sure how long or even if its a stock belt.

In process of changing all the fluids, filters, and spark plugs... whew.
Like to take a few runs before our H&M Trip in a few weeks.

You need to change your signature ! Lol
.
I ordered a hid kit with the real slim digital ballasts for $66 from Amazon.
Same kit I have installed in the sp800.
You might want to get one

HID Xenon Headlight "Slim" Conversion Kit by Kensun, 880, 6000K - 2 Year Warranty
Sold by Kensun
Condition: New

Some sort of back window to keep SOME of the dust out, I prefer a full front windshield. If you use a stock filter cover it with a pair of knee high women's hose (1) coated with a dab of filter oil, filter will last a lot longer, keep all bushings greased good they might last a little linger.

Bottom line ENJOY

Much to my "unknowns" of what issues to look for, and a few miles to push the grease around to discover bad parts, I have as of last weekend took a full day ride without break downs.

All front and rear bushings
Upper and lower ball joints, both sided
Tierod ends
bearings, all 4 corners
front shocks (trx450)due to bad spring
new shaft u joints
new and relocated fan breaker
second battery installed
troubleshoot no start (brake switch)
blown head light

In process,
have a rear saggy shock spring, so its either highlifter springs, or aftermarket soon.
new bighorns to fit the rzr.
fender flairs

Whew. Ive learned alot before the second payment, Many thanks to the folks around me.
Your not the only one Mr. P! lol

the madness




Finally over the weekend, and a little luck wife and I rode hanging rock on the ohio river. No issues, nice change of pace.

Pretty typical issues on a Polaris .
I have had every issue , too. except for fan relay ( had it on my SP 800 , though)
add Torn front cv boot to my list .
Shocks are still good but rear springs sag some. An adjustment helped.
Have not fixed them all yet due to lack of $$$ and because of work/racing schedule time constraint.
But at least I do NOT have to look forward to a second payment  
The disassembled look is familiar , going to be seeing that again here soon   

I have a set of High Lifter springs, cheap

WE need to chat ed! Ill pm you. If I see signs of life at your ranch ill stop by on my way home this evening

THANK YOU ED! Worked great

Guess I am missing the bezel

Trx450 front shocks. Mine do not bottom out, must be due to being rebuilt but have seen issues in the rzr forms

Many thanks for the conversation, great info!

Looks good Resq. Can't believe Honda shocks fit. Thanks for the pic.

You have quite a combination of shocks.

Good talking to you, stop by anytime

Have a safe ride, we are going to check out Wayne today

We had a great ride saturday nite, springs are just right....

Radio project




Dual battery and switch installed

Nice neat battery add on project, as well as the radio add on.

You will have to tell me all about the radio when finished, keep the pic's. coming

Me, more pics? LoL

Dried really well with the fiberglass applied. Little bondo to fill the brace ridge and I should have it painted sunday.

Have to find those bar bands to secure it with and wire up the radio equipment.

Sounds good sealed up. Head unit has no cd, just aux, sdcard, and radio. Cheap one but sounds fine for me. I wont be banging windows down the streets

NICE!   

Looks great Resq. You need to in business making them

Thanks, nah, its not hard. Anyone with a tool box and a little time can make it

Nice looking stereo build...
