Hey guys,

I just bought a 2008 Polaris 700 Sportsman and i'm having trouble getting the battery outta there, ive tried literally everything, there has to be an easier way for me to hook up a charger to the battery.

I bought the atv last night and i brought it home and it wouldn't start, the battery is completely dead, if i hook up a charger to it, i can get the lights to work but when i try starting it, it makes a "CLICKING" sound. If i need to buy a new battery, it looks virtually impossible to get it out.

Can someone PLEASE help me with either one of these issues.

Is the "clicking" sound because of the battery or something else?
If so, how do i get the batter outta there.

Thanks!!!

Those quads need to have a fully charged battery to operate correctly. The clicking sound is the starter solenoid not having enough power.
