bought atv yesterday cranked and ran fine at dealer. travelled a couple of hours home with the gas turned on. It is so flooded my son didn t even get to ride. It has been 24 hours still won t crank. Any help?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

 

Do not know anything about the sportsman but the first thing i would check is the spark plug.

 

I would also definatly check the spark plug, dry it off, check for spark. I just purchased a
03 breeze for my son and also started it up and it ran fine at the dealer, but when we got
home after the 3 hour drive, it didnt start it took about 10-20 min to finally get it started, and
while running it did seemed a bit suggish, its run fine since, I think were going next weekend
to pick up the 90 sportsman for my daughter, I'll have to remember to turn the gas off, since I
didnt do it with the breeze.

 

thanks guys. i did get it going drained the carb, tapped on side of bowl (possible float sticking) and heated sparkplug fired right up. My son loves the sportsman 90. Purchased in CHATT. Tenn. best prices I ve found.

 

Hey GaCracker, did you get ur Sportsman 90 from Polaris of Chattanooga, were going next weekend to get one also, how were they with the out of state sale, their web page has a price ot 1,899.00 was there any suprises when you bought it, like extra fee's

 

no they were real nice people. no taxes for me in ga. just make sure you turn that gas off before you leave. i paid 1899. my son loves it. would have taken the trailor and bought me one but they told me they didn t have it in stock. got there they had five of them. be back up that way in a couple of months.

 

cool GaCracker,.

thanks for the info... look forward to dealing with them

thanks again for the info

 

 

What were the other dealers asking?
Did you try to negotiate with the others?

I'm in Virginia and I'm leaning towards a Polaris 90. I havent checked the local price yet but I'm not paying $2300 for one.....$1899 sounds reasonable.....well, sounds better.

 

Hey Soimcrazy,

I checked 2 other polaris dealers in my area and they were in no way gonna match or even come close to their price... They knew about Polaris of Chatt, and basically told me to have a nice trip down to Chattanooga, and hope you can find someone to work on it, if it breaks.....

I dont regret making the trip, and have not had any problems with the sportsman 90cc... There were not any hidden costs or any underhanded tricks in the sale... the only thing wrong was I went on a Saturday and they were packed, they were selling about 6-10 atv's every couple hrs... so their cashiers/finance office (all 2 of them) were prety slow... it took about 2 hrs from the time we walked in and met the sales man "Pug" and finally looked at the ATV .. He was a prety good guy to deal with, for a salesman...

if you do decide to go, you should call ahead to see if they have one in stock, to lock in a price, which they should but just in case,.. tell them you'll be there on a certain date and they should have it ready for you ...

good luck in your search...
