Purchased 2013 Polaris 500 Ranger last week. No engine brake at idle just like in a previous post. Also, just before the freewheeling starts, there is a high pitched whining noise in the differential/tranny area like raw metal rubbing. Called dealer, was advised this is normal. If I had been aware of this problem prior to purchase, there would have been no purchase, this thing seems unsafe. If you release the accelerator on a steep hill the machine will slow down then as the engine reaches idle speed rpm's, the unit makes a screaching sound and goes into freewheeling requiring immediate and hard braking. Anyone out there having the same problem and is there a solution? Thanks

I would bring it to dealer and argue and make them ride with me and demand it be repaired under warranty with no charge to you, or refunded under the "lemon law"

Otherwise u could inspect the cvt continuously variable transmission to see what's going on and repair if needed.

I feel for you, If its bought new it gotta work out the box like intended to.

      Hi I'm about to order parts to do a bunch of work on my Massimo. Does anyone know if there's a difference in the top end kit {piston, Cylinder, Rings, Gaskets, Piston Pin} if it has a carb or EFI? I'm EFI and I think some came with a carb so I thought i'd ask before making a mistake...
      Thanks Jerr

      I'm sure many of you are aware of Michigan's emergency brake requirement.  I'm wondering if anyone has a good solution. 
      Beyond paying the few fab places $$$$.. I'm curious is there another rear caliper with e brake style that would interchange with slight mods to  the Maverick sport rear mounting bracket?

      Hello, I have a 2013 500 utv hisun. Was running ok and cut out while parked. Bike will not start now. It turns over, but won't fire. I have no spark and no fuel. I replaced fuel pump, ignition coil, spark plug, cdi, voltage rectifier and all the fuses and relays. Could bad stater cause no fuel because I can't hear the fuel pump priming. Any info on where to start looking for problem.
