If the Better end E-ATV's are design off of the principal of EV cars? They will be come cheaper and less robust in build quality and to software dependent. Plus heavier. Factor in (Real World) Not estimated Battery range. Voltage Type, Charging, Ambient Temperature & Weather will determine your real battery range and life. Factor in the planned Obsolesce of the product (ICE or EV) Limited ability to repair major components, limited parts, Battery replacement costs exceed value of product. Or flat out replacement with new machine. This is what my industry has been faced with in last 5yrs (Outdoor Power Equipment Sector) With the Electric's Some Good, & Some Not so good. I can't imagine the E-ATV doing the same work as ICE without serious repercussions. Until battery Technology becomes Reliable, safe, & efficient, affordable. It still has a ways to go yet. It's come along ways since its inception 100yrs ago. If they only had todays tech back then? Thats where were at now.

Wish they had these yrs ago for all stems that i had replaced that got broken on many clients lawn tractors & atvs. Would Saved alot greif.

I don't ever remember Polaris having a 500 TrailBoss model? or ever seen 1 before. Ive have owned 2 out three versions of the TB 250, 325, 330.

Good Job Frank, nice to see this topic from start to finish.

Interesting flywheel, it has solid magnet ring pressed into it, no magnet gaps. If this is case, along with what you discovered with stator, that would influence ignition timing @ mid to top end due to 2 magnet gaps? Since there is no physical damage to the old stator frame or mounting area. Guess that rules out a magnet breaking inside, and then WHO ever? re-appoxing the 2 exisiting magnets creating a gap. My guess, incorrect flywheel was installed @ factory or by former owner.

Frank Just 1 last thought, you using an (analog ohm meter) instead of digital 1 for the (pick-up coil and stator & voltage regulator) Engine Off tests. I know on most older and some newer Honda's, Kaw's, Suzuki's required a non digital meter for these types of test to get good solid reading measurement, due to the sensitivity of some of the digital meters. I'm Hoping the CDI box solves your problem, it will be interesting what your future posts will reveal for the fix. Good luck!

Without a factory service manual in front of me, I'm just throwing this as an idea to a possible cause? or it could be some other related safety switch inline the ignition circuit harness. Just curious if the your quad was equipped with some form of (ETC) Electronic Throttle Control switch, like a Polaris product would be equipped with. Or some form of 1? used by Suzuki. In the advent the throttle cable breaks or becomes stuck or out of adjustment the ETC kicks in, Grounding the CDI BOX out. I had this problem before on my 01 trailboss because the cable needed adjusted. normally it should of just killed the engine going from idle into "mid range" throttle. but the switch contacted ground intermittedly (causing backfiring) when it should of just killed the CDI box all together at mid range throttle if adjusted correctly. Knowing you already checked the , 1) In & Ex Valve clearances, 2)Spark Plug resistor cap (Rx Value), 3) Spark plug, even though new? got some out the box that were bad. Flywheel Key half sheared due to the back firing, Flywheel Magnets (magnetic poles become unstable to be not useable). Even if a ignition coil tested good, seen them also cut-out when accelerated due to a internal crack inside the field windings which you can or cannot see. The Stator plate and alternator windings for shorts? After the wiring harness being cooked, your lucky to have spark, depending how good of condition the CDI box and pick-up coil in the stator are? after the fire. Finding were the previous owner left off?, is real treat or sometimes a real headache.

Got started into ATV"s in early 2000" after riding ATC's clear back into the 1980"s, My brother bought a new 04 Yam warrior 350. After trying out a friends 2000 Polaris TB-325, I bought new 01 TB-325 in a dealer crate in 2004. Still own the Trailboss to this day.
