Did I miss something? Did Joyner go out of business? I was just flipping through the latest "Side X Side Action" issue and noticed that there is no Joyner vehicle included in the 2009 Shootout. They even have a few "kiddy toy" brands I've never heard of. What gives?

Joyner didn't want to make everyone look bad.

Not a good look for SXS mag. They have failed to kick on from last years Shootout by reducing the models, adding no name brands and spreading it over 4 months. Never mind, there's always next year and plenty of room to improve, but it does leave the door open for other magazines to do a UTV Shootout how it should be...........with independent experts doing the testing and specs and the journalists reporting the results. SXS use their journalists to test the UTVs and if you remember last year one couldn't change a manual gearbox in a Joyner and they gave 5 out of 5 for safety to the Rhino(the only utv to get this rating) only for the Rhino to be pulled off the market after 46 deaths. In this years shootout SXS has conveniently left out a safety section. Something smells and they need to gain trust if they want their mag survive. Side X Side Magazine, print facts and not what people want to read!

Cheers Mike.

      Hi, my 2010 Hisun will crannk but comes to a stop and only clicks.  It has new battery and solinoid. Battery connections all seem good. Any ideas what the problem is?

      The Axis 500 will not shift into low or reverse.  I have high when it should be in low and all the other places it is reverse.  The gears in the shift cover are fine and I shifted it when the cover was off and yet no change (so it can't be the shifting mechanism gears).  I t has been difficult to get it into low for awhile.  But now it is either high or reverse, no neutral either.

      I just bought a new 2024 Hison 550 Stryker 2 months ago. this is the second time I have had this issue.  It only has about 20 hours on it. The last time it happened we took it back to the dealer. it was a fuse.  Since we live three-hour time driving there and back. I would like to find another solution if possible.  I have tried all the fuses that seem to have anything to do with starting.  Currently checking the battery. The battery is new. it came with the unit. It is probably 6 months old.  the UTV has all power to everything electrical. lights turn signals and radio all work.  When trying the key to start . it is 100% dead. as in it doesn't even click.  There is a low whirring like the fuel pump is turning on though. The Unit was running and driving just fine.  we shut it down for the night. The next morning my wife found it in this condition.  Thanks for any Ideas or solutions???   Otherwise, it goes back to the dealer tomorrow. Just hope I didn't buy a lemon. Great little UTV when it does run.😅  anyone else ever have this Issue..?

      Looking for a output shaft for a Joyner trooper t2. Went to move the buggy after sitting all winter and it appears the out put shaft that drives the rear wheels broke off inside the transmission so looking for the shaft or a complete transmission if someone has one

      I just picked this UTV up off of Marketplace. It needs batteries. 
      I am installing a single 48v lithium battery. 
      The on board charger, a NOCO Genius GX 4820, has a lithium mode. 
      Has anyone here used this charger on new lithium batteries? I want to be certain of the compatibility before hooking the charger to this expensive battery. **

      I got in touch with NOCO and they told me the charger is fine to use on a new LiFePo battery. 
      Nice charger. Many modes. New ones are running about $550.
