Hi, they call me Big'n and I just joined this site. I have an '08 Trooper and I ride here in Eastern K and Southwestern WV. I was just wondering why I never see a Joyner at these off road places going up those nasty trails that I see the razors on? I know we get better traction cause we're heavier and have a better 4 wheel drive system. I have been told the Joyner wont hold up, that may be true because I haven't had mine long enough to know. I bought it used and have already had to replace 3 axle shafts, all 4 wheel bearings, all 4 ball joints, all steering components including the steering box. I am now having a problem with my front drive line and my winch, lights and 4x4 switch have quit. I sure hope I get everything lined out and have no more problems! Their is some wonderful country around here that I hope to explore.

wow sorry to hear that sounds like who ever owned that before didnt take care of it well. I have an 09 trooper yes I have had problems but I keep up with it and always check it ova. I have driven mine threw snow some deep mud a foot or so and been in 2' of water but I have done a pretty good job water proofing mine. I have also climbed some nasty hills and gone down some nasty hills and off camber type stuff everyone is different and all areas are too just my thoughts. GOOD LUCK

      Looking for information on installing a OBD port or a lite to read codes in ECM. 
      I can not find a OBD port or a lite to read codes on this R2 with 800cc. 
      I have code readers and adapters for most ATV's. From what I've found so far. They don't have a connection for to read codes. I may be wrong. That's why I'm asking. 
      This R2 has had new IAC, TPS, MAP, fuel pressure regulator and fuel pump replaced. This was done by neighbor to try to stop surging. It still surges on start up and then settles down. But once you hit the accelerator it revs up to 2000+ rpm and stays till you block off IAC port in throttle body with finger. Once you do that it once again settles down and idles perfectly.
      I want to know what the ECM is reading to help dio it.
      This joyner is the first one I've run across. Well second one in a week. (my neighbors 2 of them) The other was a trooper with the 1100cc chery motor that had been setting for years. After cleaning up the fuse box connections. It runs like a top. Had to replace all gages with aftermarket gages. Water, oil, gas, amp. Only problem one was the water temp using original sending unit. Had to install 150 ohm resistor on the input wire to get it to read correctly + - 5 degrees. Close enough. Gas sending unit was/is for a boat tank 6" tall. All SS so it should last forever. 
      thanks Dan D. aka staind

      Hello All...
           Just bought a 2014 Massimo 500 UTV.  It;s not running at the moment, but hopefully will soon.  I need a seat for it also (passenger side, if it makes any difference.)  It is a crank-but no start situation.  Just now starting to read the boards for solutions.  Apparently these models are well known for this issue.  If anyone has any suggestions, please feel free to chime in, it would be greatly appreciated.
      Thanks
