Thanks. I have 380 miles on my 2012 rancher and I had a hesitation in throttle response as well as starting issues. The starter was sounding like it was going bad so I pulled it apart and all the magnets were shattered so I replaced that and the battery because it wasn't holding a charge in cold temperatures. I did a full tune up and the valves needed to be checked/adjusted according to the maintenance manual. The oil, spark plug, air filter and fuel filter were due so I replaced those too. I still had a hesitation in the throttle response after clearing up the starting issue and doing the tune up soI did the cleaning procedure on the spark arrestor and voila, it's running like new! The only big maintenance left is the front and rear gear oil and she should be good for another 380miles/10 years whichever comes first. 😂
