It happened on Saturday, I rolled my 05 sportsman 500, its not too bad just the handlebars and the headlight pod. But here comes my question, after searching through 14 pages of past posts about other riders rolling there rigs, I had found alot of info on what to look for and places to find it, but my question is, is there anything aftermarket for the sportsman for the headlight pod, in previous posts everyone always talks about stock, but has anyone done any other mods to the headlight pod, I was trying to think of ways to maybe integrate a new headlight since that got smashed, and I was also contemplating looking for some aftermarket bars instead of just replacing with stock, so pretty much after all of my rambling my main question was to see if there is anything cool that I can do since the whole handlebar setup needs replaced, thanks in advance

 

your lucky that that is the only thing that happened. do you wear any of you protective gear? if not you may wnat to take a lil look at these pics. this guy didn't wear anything and it costed him.........................shea.................. ....................

I think if my headlight and pod was smashed off I would just leave it of and call the ATV a

"500 Magnum with IRS" and keep riding it. Of course you would have to do the speedo rewire so its not involved with the operation of the AWD.



05 Magnum, looks good enough for me.

 

Shea those are some pretty disturbing pictures, and yes I was wearing a helmet

 

There are a few parts available through a company that makes buggies with Polaris engines that they take off of the quads. ATV parts Also, check eBay. There's always something on there.

 

thanks MooseHenden, I had found that link on previous posts, however all that they had in stock was the steering post, so I am still looking for bars, pod, and headlight, also figured that since I am replacing everything I might as well put on some heated grips, anyone recommend a certain brand of grips and still looking for cool ideas if you have any, thanks for all of your help in putting my rig back together

 

first i thought it was fake,then it seemed like his head was alittle too parellel with his chest+disconnected.well he sure left a well dressed for golf corpse!
