03 Sportsman 500 HO
Good day to all.
My friend has a 2003 Sportsman 500 and he has the following problem:
It is hard to put in gear, your can hear the gear grinding, also, when it is in gear,
it will start moving at idle.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img] Now does he need to adjust the linkage or
is it clutch trouble????
Thanks for your help.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

The problem is with your clutch. It isn't fully disengaging thus making it hard to put the bike into gear. If I am not mistaken I think that the primary needs to be shimmed out a little to make the belt line up in the middle. This is a simple fix and should be nothing to worry about. It should only take a dealer about 1/2 hour to fix, and maybe an hour for you.
