I have a 2000 Polaris Sportsman 500. The Speedometer got water inside of it and it sat for a long time. So now that speedometer is trashed to say the least and i need to find a replacement. I don't want to put up the cash for an oem one so i was wondering if anyone knew any good speedometers out there i could use. I've found many speedometers i like but don't know how i'd wire it up without the same connection points. Thanks, any input is appreciated

Hey brother sorry I did see this the other day and got side tracked.  So I looked around and yes it’s a pricey item. Used they are $100 plus.  New $250, however there is a cheaper aftermarket is a universal one that fits the 500 sportsman. I found one on eBay. 
I asked a friend in PA that has a junk yard for atv’s especially Polaris bikes.   He’s going to take a look.

Take a look at eBay and use a few different keywords used,aftermarket etc  

I double checked the years that the part number is the  same and it’s from 99 -01 so you have three years of used bikes to try and locate  

If you can post a pic of yours especially if you have it removed  I would like to see the front and back.

If he’s got one he will let me know. He’s a bit of an air head so I have to stay on top of him. 
as far as the other goes I’m not sure what the workings of it is. If it’s a direct wire up or by gps. Some of them come with a sensor that’s picked up by gps.  I will be in touch.

      Trail Tire Valve Replacement
      By Gwbarm
      Have you ever been on the trail and your tire valve goes bad. No way to break down the wheel and replace it. A lot of you probably know about this already i had heard of it but never used one. Just punch out the old one insert and tighten down the nut
       

       

       

       
      So far it has worked very well.

      2 problems with 2000 Timberwolf 4x4
      By Tim Keiper
      1st problem, Does anyone know where I can find a stock carb for my Timberwolf, I have tried two different aftermarket carbs and they both suck. The machine runs great until it gets good and warm, then it keeps stalling unless I feather the throttle. it will even stall while I'm trying to go from 1st to reverse or vise versa. I took it to a buddy of mine who is a bike mechanic for years, and he told me try to find a factory carb. When I look online from dealers it says "NOT AVAILABLE" anyone have any suggestions ?
       
      2nd, The small tab on the rear axle for towing is to short for even pulling my small yard trailer, I can't even turn a little bit and hit hits. I tried making an extension which worked great as far as length, but it bends the tab and then the extension drags the ground. I have an idea of what to do to fix it, but wanted to see if anyone else has had this problem and see how you solved it.

      2000 Honda 400EX Backfires
      By Trent Finnessey
      I’ve got a 2000 400ex with a dg slip on muffler, it came with he stock muffler on it but the previous owner had the dg in a box so I put it on. I’ve been riding it for the past month and a half and every time I let off it backfires, and the other day the backfires got way louder, 2x louder! I’m concerned that I may hurt my motor? Why does is backfire??? Thanks

      2000 Grizzly 600.
      By Randomnumber73
      I'm working on my uncles grizzly and it sparks once on initial cranking then no more after that. If I let off the start button then press the start button again it will spark once then stop sparking. I was wondering if anyone seen this issue before.  Also I've never used forums before so sorry if this question is in the wrong location.
