Hey guys I'm a newbie here and have read all the posts trying to find my problem. I recently purchased this wheeler with less than 650 miles on it. I had to jimmy the key switch after I got home with a new battery and fresh gas, because my grandson lost the key, my question is, the reverse override does not work. Is this because of the key switch being modified? Also the wheeler runs good from 0-45 mph, then it just kind of lays down to top out at 55-57 mph depending on tail wind with my fat arse on it. When I release the throttle it appears to have an engine break that engages ASAP. Is this normal or is it something to do with the reverse overide button not working? I have heard of similar things on different wheelers.

Any help is very much appreciated! Thanks guys.

Never a waste of time, it could benefit others. What was the

Reverse override is designed to work in four wheel drive only- four wheeler comes standard with engine brake.:aargh:

      Hi! I’m new to the forum. I have several Polaris Trailboss 500’s, which I’m trying to make 2 usable bikes from. One is all but complete, needing only reassembly, while the other two are a decision as to which is parts and which is bike. lol. Anyhow…

      Need some help putting a new ignition switch on this thing. I'm not finding homes for all the wires. I can hook up the white wire and brown wire, But the switch has a B/W and Solid Yellow wire i can't find a home for, and there aren't any more wires in the vicinity from the harness that match this, except one red wire with a double female end crimped on, and a few B/Y grounds. None of the wiring diagrams i've founder or have been given match.
      I'm also wondering if i have the wrong switch? some switches appear to have 4 wires and other just 2, the Brown wire and a White wire.
      I'm at a loss here. Thanks.

      I am new to this site. Now down to business, I have been given a Kawasaki 220, tires are trashed and it has been setting for a long time. Do I need a battery in it to find neutral? I know there is a neutral switch and if I shift down(7 times????)   then up one using the neutral switch I should be in Neutral. As you see I am in a learning curve here ......coments welcome.

      Hello all! I’m new to the 4 wheeler world, but not new to the mechanic world. I was a diesel mechanic for many years and last year got into jet skis. I just bought a 1987 Yamaha moto 4 350 and now learning the ins and outs of 2 stroke engines. Looking forward to learning all the things.
