I didnt want to have to jack with weights on the polaris drive to sync it with the lower reving honda motor. Switching is always a option why i bought the polaris drive. I guess also i wanted to see if it would work. Everybody said it wouldnt work everywhere i searched and looked for info about...

Actually the polaris drive is a different size, it bigger than a inch aka the honda crank size. There however is a 40 buck adapter and involves shorting and taping the honda crank. Saying that i got a polaris drive on the way.

Oh one more Rigging problem, since i raised the motor probably about 3 1/2 inches, It put it above the stock gas tank that sits under the seat. I had to mount a temporary gas tank above the engine on the utv bed area. The gas tank under the seat is probably a 2 1/2 gallon to 3.. I would really...

Yes sir, why i snatched it up. Full suspension. Most cheaper ones just have front.That dang honda motor is amazing, setting up for the last yr. and fired right up with fresh gas. IM fixing to get some use out of it, Once i tweak my Frankenstien expirament...

Hello all! Some project info.- A American Sports Work UTV ( honda gx390 motor) that got tattoo'ed in the butt by a car. Bought it at a yard sell for 150 bucks. The rear transaxle was shattered into two down the middle of the tranny. They only sell it as a complete unit for 1200 or 1800 bucks...
