Hey fellas thanks for reading and posting,
I just bought a 2nd hand rzr dated 5.27.07. Bought it in a pre-divorce liquidation. My questions are: A) What do I have? B) Where should my compression be at this point in my rzr's life? C) What probs do I look for now? D) What probs should I be on the watch for (tell tale signs of major probs?) E) What generation rzr is it? F) Any probs with a UMP air chamber with Donaldson elements? I have one on order now.
I'll give the info I have on the rzr at present:
Bought the rzr for $4500. I put new camo skin on it in its first night home (bought new camo pull off skins.) 105 hours @ 1500 miles for avg of just over 14mph over life. Previous owner claimed he did a ton of blacktop road riding and a bit of rock climbing. The factory skid needs replacing.The previous owner says he may have had 20+ hours at Barnwell mountain rock climbing, but there were alot of beer breaks in there. He detested mud riding, only been in the mud a couple times. It had 4 open recalls, the air box issue being the most pressing, however he says it went in for recalls and they may not have been logged by the dealer. It has had a K&N on it most of its life. It has been on each side once. He claimed he did oil changes at 25 hrs. It seems to have been greased very regularly and suspension seems to be smooth and properly operating. My guesstimation is that the previous owner was regular or better on maintenance, but wasn't really into his machine that much. I'm at $5500 with the new ump on the way, should i consider cutting my losses, sell, and regroup for a new RZR?
Thank you for your time, EasTTeX

Sounds to me like you got a good deal. I would run it.
The only thing I would look into is maybe this, http://www.utvguide.net/rzr_voltage_reg … cation.htm another member on here was haven trouble with an older RZR, I dont know if this helped him or not but for the cost I would do it if I owned a RZR. may save some trouble later on. It seems to have been a small problem in some (not all) of the older RZRs.

Sounds like a great deal. Compresion test and checking the oil for particles would likely tell you if it has sucked dirt. With the air box and voltage regulator fixed I would say ride it! 8)

For question A. I'm not sure how to answer that one. For your other questions the compression should be around 150 to 200 psi and you have an early Gen 1 RZR. I would do a full maintenance and clean the Tmap/Tbap sensor and check for silt going into the engine through the air intake system. I am a big fan of K&N filters on anything other then the 2007 and 2008 RZR due to the Induction system and where it gets its air from. The filter is part or the recall and it has a much better Micron rating then the K&N But it will not flow as well, That is a choice that you have to make, a little less power or what is safer for the engine, If you do a lot of riding in silty dusty conditions i would remove the K&N or install a snorkel kit to bring in cleaner air from a different source. I have done some threads on service oils and filters and if you do a search you can find info on TPS sensors and the tbap/tmap cleaning.

Thanks,
I hadn't heard of cleaning and inspecting the TPS sensors and the tbap/tmap. I'll check into it and clean them up. All part of my intentions to start with as clean of a slate as possible. My dealer (my neighbor) did verify they can do the leak down test as well as the compression tests when I bring it in for the bulletins and recalls. He's been real good on this project, major help with identifying probs and diagnostics.
Many Thanks,
