I just bought an older (2008) Teryx 750 and am having some concerns. Hoping of course, that most are not too big. . . but more knowledgeable folks like yourselves will surely have some ideas. Thanks in advance.
-- about 2700 hrs, camo version
-- Starting: after not running much at the auction site, I tried it and it was tough to start but half of this was likely I did not quite know the tricks for how long to keep the choke on. However, once it started it was kind of hard to keep running until it warmed up(once warmed it starts perfectly every time with no choke). Now, back to running after the first ignition: I had to hold the RPM's up a bit to keep it running and when doing so it sounded as if a little gnome was inside the engine pounding on something at random intervals. Wondering if this could be detonation-- "knocking"? After warming, it disappeared completely. Maybe just need higher octane gas??
-- After starting and running a bit there was a pretty terrible smell, most "like" burning rubber or an electrical fire. No fire or resolution of this. Eventually this TOO went mostly away, but still basically present. Could it be adjustment needed for the main belt variable speed tranny?
-- When I move from neutral into either Lo or HIGH range forward gears, I get gear clashing. I did NOT put foot on brake and read in manual(just NOW) that you are supposed to do so. (I have NOT gotten back out to check and see if this matters. ) OR, could it be part of the drive system is mashed up??! Geez, hope not.
-- There is a big open hole allowing direct sight into the belt transmission on the back right side. This can't be normal, it must require some plastic cover. Right? Any rodent could get right into the transmission!
-- THere appears to be no muffler or spark arrestor unit. This "could " be the cause of some of the smell. . . ?? but that should not smell like burning rubber or electrical smell. . .
SO. That is all.
I sure would appreciate any insight on this issues and finally(!). . . if I was to take this into a local dealer what would you say are the top three issues I should have them address first?
thanks!

I am looking at buying a 2008 XT700 Arctic Cat side x side. Are parts still readily available for these (new) or mostly used on ebay? I have looKed up and found several new parts on the web including ebay, just not sure if this is a good idea to buy the SXS or not. THANKS

I am in need of some advice. I jumped started this utv, and since then, it'll idle just fine, but the moment I give it throttle, it starts to bog pretty bad and wants to die. The moment im off the gas, it goes back to idling normal. I'm not sure what the issue could be exactly.

I recently started selling GCL UTV Enclosures but like most aftermarket suppliers, Joyner isn't catered for. The stock Joyner Enclosures are basic so there is room for an aftermarket enclosure to enhance your UTV. GCL UTV have full enclosures with a folding Lexan Windshield which is a practically modular unit. That means for cold or wet days you keep the full enclosure complete, for spring and autumn zip the doors off or roll them back and you now have a mini cab. If you want the back window off, it zips off all the way and you end up with just the windshield and top. If you don't want the windshield on, just loosen the knob bolts on the six quick connect clamps and out that comes, but I would just open it. These would be great for your rainy seasons and in the snow that I hear about from you guys all the time over there. This isn't a sales pitch, well maybe it was if you have a Rhino, Mule, Big Red, RZR & so on, I just want to know, in your humble opinions, if there is a market for a Premium UTV Enclosure for our Joyners.
The retail price would be about us$950 for a two seater enclosure as mentioned above and us$1100 for a four seater. Full soft enclosures (no Lexan windshield) for a two seater are about us$570.
The attachments are a full soft enclosure for a 2010 Ranger two seater & a full enclosure with a Lexan Windshield for a Ranger Crew.
For the poll tick yes or no and feel free to add any comments.
Cheers Mike.
