Lock-N-Ride?

anybody actually have any of the polaris lock n ride accessories? I know the new rear racks are designed for that, but I personally have not found anything i like / want / desire rather then a real rear rack that can hold more then 70 lbs.

I have the lock n ride low windsheild on my 800. I like it. It keeps the mud of the consol,and you can duck behind it when going thru the brush. As for most of the other lock n ride stuff, it is way over priced in my opinion. If you look on Mudinmyblood and Highlifter forums you will find allot of home made stuff,that can be made cheep and easy. On the PRC forum there are couple threads on home made lock n ride plugs. the polaris ones are about $20 a piece. These guys are making them for about $3-$4 s piece with simple hardware store stuff. And they work better. Just go over to wicks and look around at the fasteners and storage box and stuff. You will be surprised at what you can come up with.

Wow, thanks bud, never thought of that. I believe you saved me a hell of a lot of money. I have a rear rack back that works good, just not really sure what is available with that system, but I do like the idea of the system, just the problem is , like anything pretty much from the dealer, costs too much. thanks though, joe

i think yours would look sweet with a brush guard

i thought about the brush guard, but there are 3 different ones. there was a gloss black that was ok, but they now dont sell it. the other 2 are like 150, i like the upgraded one of the gloss black, then the other one just flat out look stupid. I would get the thick dull black, but I heard in a slight impact, it really does not do any help like other quads brushguards do...

still looking for new mods...

Throw on some wheel spacers, you can find them cheap, and it really helps the machine from getting that top heavy feeling

awesome, ill have to look those up. I tried searching 400 ho mods, but nothing so I looked up Hawkeye Mods and found they are drillin their carb slide, and removing clutch rollers, but nothing I want to get into. Id love to first make it look bad ass, as right now it does fine on trails. maybe increase the bottom end torqu to pull some wheelies, and a little top end for keeping up with buddies with bigger machines.

add some hand guards

im not too keen on hand guards, those are more for sport quads. im going to throw my strobe kit on my quad, just wish i had some to throw in my headlights, c/ the sealed bulb strobes i have are too big for that.

also u could put different rims on it like the SS ones with black and chrome and some digger tires.. but watch out with the tires with the bigger size you go the heavier the tire is and it will throw off your gearing making more work on your machine

If I can get rid of my extra rims for my car and those dunlop quad tires, ill pick up some rims, then later get some 25's

a snorkle kit would be badass on there nick.lol you could take it anywhere then.. not to sure if they have the kit out for the 400HO sportsmen yet. but im sure you could make the old redneck home made one

No kit made yet. I saw on a hawkeye someone cut a hole in the top of the airlid, and not sure how he routed it but its possible. Wishing I could Make one that come on and off easy, dont wanna ride trails and not be hittin water and have the snorkel on

use rubler botos and pvc that way u can use it when needed and take it off when u dont need it..

ill see about it. when it gets nice out you will see what i plan on doing to it. nothing big, but noticeable =]

nice..lol yous would look sweet with the strobes in the head lights

There was a video someone took of their hawkeye with strobes in the lights, and it does look bad ass., I cant wait to see your leds. still waiting to order mine till i see yours

ill bring em to work tonight and show u what it all looks like.. super brite thats all i gotta say

anybody think about making like a lock n ride set of offroad lights? something to hook up for night riding? I am trying to figure out how to make a good bracket, let alone one to alow swivel when wnted for spotting areas desired, but also hold steady while riding. any ideas?

Our outlander has a big swivel spot light on the rack

Outlaw post some pics of your quad, my leds failed horribly on my outlaw and I got the brighter pod ones ima hook up in spring

ill take some pics of it tomorrow morning in the day light... oh that has to suck where did you buy your leds from?

looks like you have to throw the led on it first, eh? Mind saying where you got the spotlight? and any pics? thx.

Sure ill get some pictures of the spot light tonight when I get home, I believe I got it on ebay, or one of the flea markets down in Leaper

yea.. cant see the leds during the day tho.. but i now just have to figure out how to up load em on here. guess ill have to use photo bucket or some crap like that

I saw my Tractor Supply has a 30 watt rack mount spotlight for atvs for $30, which is just a little too much to pay for only 30 watts, so I am hoping to find the mount, then I can throw my own light on with 300 lumen spread or focus.
