Fixing a cheap 1999 Polaris Xplorer 400 2 stroke from Facebook marketplace and taking it for a ride. Rebuilding the engine and repairing other things on the atv as well.
I picked up one about a year ago for $250 and didn't know much about wheelers, I sure am learning though hehe. I got it from not running at all to be a very reliable machine. Not perfect, but it's within my budget hehe
The way people ride them compromises them imo. Down the road at a constant speed. And Polaris is garbage unfortunately. Seen so many break over the years.
You can use a heat gun or propane torch to heat the cover and bend it out and Amazon some vinyl fabric and cover the seat . You should get 2 seats to a yard. My ocd has to have the handle bars straight or it drives me nuts. But good job came out nice.
I did end up using a heat gun to reshape it a little and found the bottom bracket where the inner part bolts to the frame was bent a little, i bent that back and the rubbing is gone completely now
