I'll let you go on with your denial and searches to justify it, and I'll continue to follow the advice of my doctor and the medical profession.

As with any anti-viral or any other medication, there will always be some with adverse reactions. Any of those results listed could occur in some individuals. What really matters is the frequency of them. For any one of them the rate is so low as to be insignificant compared to the benefits of the vaccine. Here is an article with the numbers per million of those that have had adverse effects. Note that the adverse reactions rate doesn't mention the rates of mild and severe reactions , but the total rates. Those suffering more than mild reactions requiring interventions would be far smaller. https://graphics.reuters.com/HEALTH-CORONAVIRUS/VACCINE-EFFECTS/xegvbglkrpq/

I am not going to argue over vaccines. It's no use when you are so convinced they are useless and can find those on the far right holding medical degrees arguing against them. I'll go by my own experience than the 90% plus of the medical profession and researchers that say they do. As I said before , the internet and its free access for the conspiracy theorists has proved as detrimental as it has proved useful for the spread of information. It's too bad so many refuse to believe the facts over the disinformation/ misinformation out there. Yes, a lot of us were lucky. I smoked heavily for years before I quit shortly before I had quad bypasses. Both of the parents of one of my chums weren't. They both died of smoking related cancers , and one of my school chums died of lung cancer at 26,, before the links between lung cancers and heart disease were well establish over the disinformation and denials of the tobacco industry at the time. I took a lot of years before the togacco industry were forced to admit the links smoking had to lung cancer, heart disease and emphysema. Despite knowing the links between smoking and cancer I smoked. It was an easy habit that was hard to break; and despite being smoke free for over 20 years, I know damn well if I was ever stupid enough to take the first one again , I'd be right back on therm.

As I said , we can disagree on many things. The protests , , parades, months devoted minorities are all direct result of the discrimination and worse for far too long by the minorities. Whites don't have to have any of them for the simple reason they've always had the luxury of lack of colour discrimination all along. You only perceive tv and movies are heavy on gay and minority issues and "grooming of kids" because you're looking for it and take many things that normally would not have raised an eyebrow as somehow an attack on your values. The vaccines work, despite your prejudices against them. That is established fact whether the right wing ant-vqxxers and conspiracy theorists want to admit it or not .The misinformation and outright lies by so many have made the measures to reduce the spread of COVID far less effective than they could have been.. The vaccines did NOT give anyone cancer or cause it to reoccur if he had it before and was cancer free for 8 years.. I, unfortunately have had too many friends and family fall to cancers, my mother included, that they had been treated for and had in remission for several years. When it flared again , there was no stopping it .. A friends wife was thought to be in perfect health. Felt ill and went to the doctor. Diagnosed with cancer and dead a month later.. It was that fast ,from nothing wrong to dead in a month. The electrical foreman in the mill I worked in had a complete physical for his company insurance and was assessed as perfectly healthy. A week later sitting at coffee with other staff, he suddenly looked very surprised and collapsed on the table without uttering a sound .. He was in his mid 50's. The doctor said he was likely dead from a massive heart attack before his head hit the table. All these deaths occurred a long time before COVID appeared; but if they happened now after someone had been vaccinated the vaccine would have been blamed by those that know no better. Everyone I know and associate with have never had any adverse reaction to the shot; and those that refused it have been fortunate enough to remain healthy. I have had the full lot of vaccine and boosters, including one booster where the nurse accidentally gave me a double dose. My reaction to the entire series of shots?. Nothing more than a slightly sore shoulder the next day. That's it. My family and friends had no more than a couple of them feeling "a little off" for a couple of days .. My son-in-law is a fully vaxxed paramedic. He caught a breakthrough case of COVID. He was very sick , but didn't need hospitalization. He said he knows full well had he not have been vaccinated it would have killed him. An Asian friend caught a case of it long after he had been vaccinated. He ended up with no more than the sniffles and a bit of fever. Yes Randy , believe the deniers or the facts , but the fact is the vaccines work and I have seen some of the results in friends and medical reports.

DeSantis may get things done if he gets the presidency and a majority in the Houses, but you won't like what he gets done. I don't see extremism in wanting to see people able to love who they want to or what sex they identify with. None of their personal choices or orientation affects me ,nor should it anyone else. I don't see extremism in saying everyone should have the same rights and respect, no matter what race, colour they are, or what religion they follow. Again none of that affects me. What does affect me is how others treat me, and my opinion of them depends on that and how they treat others. There are many things we disagree on. I know the vaccines and measures taken to try to protect people and limit the spread as much as possible. We can disagree and still be friends with others , and that's how it should be .

I am definitely not a DeSantis fan and I agree with your assessment of him. As you said, someone can be a member of Mensa and still be a fool. I said the GOP needs to move towards the center right. I know it would hurt them some , but really , how much?. The extreme right and GOP only voters would still vote for them. They might even get some of their old centrist base back that either didn't vote or voted for a Dem because they can see how damaging to the country the extremists and some of their nut case attitudes can be. Unfortunately I see right extremism rising everywhere, not just in the US. We have more than our share here and in Europe too. It does not lead down a very good path as the 20th century showed all too horribly well.

Herschel Walker and Dr. Oz didn't need tRump to help them deserve to lose. Oz is an as* to put it politely, Walker is despicable on several counts.. How can any intelligent person vote for Lauren Boebert or Marjorie Taylor Greene is also beyond me. I would like to think the only ones that would are die hard GOP that wouldn't vote for anyone except the GOP candidate , no matter how unfit they are for the job, and the far too many that don't follow the issues but have the "right" letters after their name on the ballot. The GOP needs to get rid of the extreme right nut cases and return a lot closer to the center right . The GOP of today is a very far cry from the "Party of Lincoln"

I think Mech answered the power source to the fan with key off.. There are 2 power source in and out on the key switch, so likely the second circuit is the one that powers the fan in key off .. I would suspect the fan sensor is faulty since It would appear to me the second power source on the key switch is to provide constant power to that sensor to power the fan when the motor is still hot after shut down. When the motor is below fan triggering temperature it should remain off no matter which circuit is powering it . Check the output of the fan sensor with the motor cold there should be none if the fan is powered directly through it , and if there is a relay the fan sensor triggers, check that relay for it being failed on ( points fused closed) delivering power to the fan constantly.

That orange and black "side by side" sure does a great job of disguising itself as a Jeep

If you bought that quad used and this has been happening almost right off, it might be someone has messed up the wiring to the fan. It seems to me from your description that possibly the hot wire is going directly to the fan and the ground is switched by the relay. Fan stays off until the sensor calls for it to run at temperature but the ground is switched off by the relay. When the key is turned off the relay switches to normal off position and in doing so actually grounds the fan so it'll run.. As Mech says , there should be a wiring diagram in a service manual covering your machine in the download sectio n to help you trace down the gremlin..

Just my 2 cents worth, but the picture he shows of the stuck Polaris is hilarious to anyone who has driven 4x4s / ridden ATVs in the gumbo we have in north central Bc and farther north, Those people standing around the ATV would have about 20 pounds of mud on each foot . Where they are looks more like a fine sand than mud. Since that appears to have an open differential in front ( back also?) it is at best 3 wheel drive since if one tire loses traction on front there is no more pull there . If the rear diff is also open the same goes for there. I would hazard a guess that if the machine had locking differentials front and back it would easily have handled that hole. Sorry , but that ground doesn't look like it is slippery at all; wet and soft , maybe , but not really a challenge to all wheel drive or on demand 4x4 with at least a locked or locking rear differential. As far as the belt shredding goes, I strongly suspect it is the driver or mechanic's fault far more than the clutch set manufacturer's. The posts and claims by Keys has that familiar farm smell to me.

Absolutely

You have just proved my point. The farce is strong with tRumpers.

I find it hard to understand how anyone can blindly worship one of the most corrupt individuals, never mind politician, the US has ever produced. Despite all the evidence up to and including the Jan. 6 insurrection, they refuse to believe any of it. The cult of Donald and his apologists in the House and Senate goes against everything Americans claim they stand for.

You'd be amazed at how many big name American products are either made in China or are composed mainly of Chinese made parts made to American specs by a company affiliated with an American one's foreign investment. NAFTA has nothing to do with it . As far as the orange one is concerned,, that scammer has cost the US far more than you realize. Hopefully after November he will be called to task for it.

Contrary to what so many conservative Americans think, the Chinese and Asians are just as capable of making quality parts as anyone, and North Americans are just as capable of making junk as the Chinese and other Asians. You want to try to bring some of the manufacturing back to the US? Bring back the tax regime of the'50's where companies and individuals were encouraged to invest and re-invest in the US rather than take their profits and run offshore to invest them while demanding more subsidies from the American taxpayers. Don't blame Asians for the tax and business decisions made at home.

The basics you mentioned plus a snatch block if you have a winch, or a "comealong" if you don't.. A dedicated GPS works everywhere. They don't rely on cell service. Not really "extraction gear" but an accessory socket wired into your ATV, if it didn't come with one already, and a 12v to USB adapter and cords to connect you cell or other USB charged accessories. It's no fun being broke down within range of a cell tower and having you cell battery go flat. If you don't always leave with a full gas tank, an extra full gallon can of gas might be a good idea too.

I see no reason an atv master cylinder ( and wheel cylinder(s) can't be bled the same way automotive cylinders are bled. Fill master cylinder, pump up and hold brake and crack the bleed valve. The fun part comes with some atvs when you need to remove the seat or plastics to access the rear master cylinder cylinder or bleed valve.

That's what makes me suspect a loose or corroded connection. Turning on the power can make a momentary surge in power that can connect through a little corrosion, and movement can make a loose connection make contact when previous movement made it lose. I'd bet more on a loose connection or even an incomplete break in the wire where the ends are close together and a little movement makes connection. It's possible in the ignition switch too if a little corrosion in there .. Next time it doesn't want to turn over, try turning the ignition switch on and off a few times to see it that makes it work. Electrical gremlins that cause intermittents are the most evil. It's much easier finding a complete failure / disconnection.

I would look for a loose connection or a corroded connection or ground in the circuit to the ignition switch and starter circuit.

You can add one to the line to the carbs. Quick search just showed 2 electric settings for the fuel pump -On and Prime- with no shut off valve.. If your quad is going to be laid up for an extended period you could disconnect the fuel hose and use the prime position to pump the fuel tank dry to prevent sludge build up in it from the gas rotting in storage. To simply run the carbs out without installing a shutoff valve you could wire a switch into the power line to the fuel pump to turn it off when you want to run the carbs out.

Looks like it is remove and disassemble time to find out why it is sticking.. If the quad is gumming up from sitting unused for a considerable time, I would suggest every time you do use it you turn off the fuel and run the carb out when you're done. That way there's no fuel left in it to rot and gum up the works. I make a habit of doing that with all of my equipment from the quad to lawn and garden gear, power saw and snow blower.

Have you checked system voltages, tried to rev it up with headlights on? . Other threads have pointed to faulty voltage regulators causing erratic running / stalling and acting as though running lean due to a faulty voltage regulator.

There's always 2 0r more prices for everything transportation or leisure involved.. Years ago there was 3 prices for an identical alternator used on a vehicle , boat or aircraft. Yes, there were slight differences between them--- the marine alternator had screening to make them less likely to ignite fuel vapors in the bilge and the aircraft certified ones were much more tightly quality controlled; but it still didn't justify a more than 3x price increase over the automotive one. Price the identical part for a Chevy and Cadillac, or any companies basic models and their luxury line. You are paying a premium for the name or "luxury". Even some power tools have huge price differences depending on the brand name on them. I remember a 4 " angle grinder made by one company having 2 prices .. The very common utility brand was $100 cheaper than the "elite" branded one. The difference between grinders? the expensive one had a polished aluminum gear case while the basic one was matte finished as it came from the forming die. Otherwise the two angle grinders were screw for screw identical. When the tool salesman was confronted with that he admitted the utility grinder maker also made them for the company whose tools he was selling .. I won't say their names but the initials for the two companies were B&D and S.O. LOL... As far as chains are concerned, it isn't that hard to cut down chains or add to them to modify them to fit a different tire diameters, a little more work to modify width You don't need to pay the higher price tags for new if you don't want to.
