Ok well maybe use rzrforum? 10% is still 10%, hopefully it won't catch on fire since you used the rzrforum code

1. Won't accept the code. Says invalid.

I spoke directly with them for 10% off. Tell them there are members on the fence and watching!

I'm watching. Give me 10% off and I'll order it by this time tomorrow.

Just spoke to Superatv, for 10% discount, be sure to add a 1 after the Hondasxs forum, or Razor forum name, or just give them a call. 855.743.3427 (press 1 at the answering recording). Currently on sale at $584.

$549 after mentioning Hondasxs.com for discount. Huge difference with the 27 inch tires and it was a larger power steering motor than I expected (good thing). FYI..Tapped into the white/black 12 v key hot lead from the four slot accessory plug for the small while wire, and already had the heavier main red power lead under the hood from the earlier winch install.

This picture is worth a thousand words, shows the position of the lower shaft and that's the pita! I also remembered reading that you took out the wrong bolts and then I went and did the same thing. It's their picture that shows the wiring clip coming out of the top, they really need to change that pic in their instructions. Back out I go. Thanks Mudder!

@trigger , Glad you got one. Let us know what you think. Hope others will note this post on bad instructions, might be that wire exit depends on how it was assembled at factory. Key is the pic with the three large bolts pointing down.

The EZ Steer is all bolted in but the wiring fell about a foot short for me, just have to extend them in the toolbox. I did crank it back and forth to full turn a few times just to make sure nothing rubbed and everything was kosher. Inaccurate pictures don't help their instructions but it ended up being a nice compact and clean little install, can't wait to try it.

I found out Polaris bought Super ATV . They are getting way too big and powerful.

About to break down and order power steering. Any opinions on the Tusk vs the Ez Steer?

Nice! I went with the EZ Steer because I think it was the first one made, the rest looked like knock offs. Advertised as being water tight and sealed too. Super ATV makes them and are known for standing behind their stuff, good people. For $40 more than the others it felt more comfortable spending that kind of money. Just my 2c.

Thanks, I'll probably end up going with the EZ Steer. I'm all about saving a few bucks if I can but I don't care to spend it for a better product/warranty.

@Bad_bowtie , Ez steer still working great for me, and don't forget to ask for the forum discount, $40+ Savings was worth asking for it. If you do get one, note the earlier post about the error on their instructions picture.

I wonder why they haven't changed error the on their instruction sheet, or have they? My next big investment will be for the EZ steer.

No they had not changed it when I installed mine and that was after @Mudder did his. They show the unit upside down and it creates problems. Knowing this going in will save you some time and grief.

This was very helpful thanks! I installed the Tusk power steering kit.

I just bought & I State Tusk kit on my new 2018 Pioneer 500. Was $100 less than the Super ATV Kit. Installed easy & works great!

My Tusk unit has been flawless so far,just try not to hold these units full lock for very long at a time,as the motor could be damaged.Unlike a hydraulic unit with a pressure relief valve,these will have the motor stalled.
