Greetings friends..
My 2016 1000k has a loss of EPS at speeds over 30mph and usually during rough terrain. The illuminating idiot light and steering loss only lasts 2-3 seconds. I tried powering off all electronics nav,lights, etc. but no dice. I do have the oversized battery in the machine, from a polaris ranger.
In my searches I found many had a relay issue, dirty or loose.. my fuse box is dry n clean, prongs on relay look factory clean. Is there something that I’m overlooking here?
Thank you

Do any Polaris machines have filters on the air intake for the clutch housing?
I have a couple of 570 Sportsmans, and at just over 1k miles the primary and secondary clutches need rebuilt. The dealer said it's because of the dust. But they say it can't be filtered because of heat issues. But someone told me that Razors have filters?
And of course, all the failed parts are wearable items, so my extended warranties are worthless.
This is just a BS design flaw that they're blaming on the riders. They say I have to have it "serviced" more often than 500 miles. So, if thats true, I've concluded the Sportsman 570 is a straight piece of crap, and if Polaris knows this is a problem then they too, are pieces of crap.

i recently got the 97 scrambler 500 4x4 and it cranked and ran great for the first month then i had to replace starter and solenoid and i went to Polaris and purchased factory oils and gear lube and i did a service. now even though my batt has 12.6v it will only start if i connect the ac batt charger. then it runs fine until shut off. can anyone give me some suggestions on why that is?

I am in the market for a 2 seater. I previously had an 05 Sportsman 500HO. Some things drove me away. EBC and single lever braking got me in trouble at times. I now have a newer Grizzly 700 SE. There's nothing I dislike about it, but I have a need to pack 2 up on occasion.
The Yamaha is dead nuts reliable and works very well.
Are the newer generation units more effective in terms of ADC and EBS. I know there is a fix for the single lever braking if I don't feel that I am adapting.
I live and ride in NE NV. I live at 5700' and routinely ride to 10,000' I do 125 mile rides often. Mostly remote 50 year old 2 tracks.
What can I expect in performance and reliability with an 18 or 19 Sportsman 850 or 1000? Does the 1000 get appreciably worse fuel economy?
Any information you could share would be appreciated!

It was weighed fully setup with how I ride it. Full trunk on back, two full 3gal RotoPax and my front bags loaded with a bunch of tools, air compressor, belt, etc. Also have my rear cargo area plum full with tow straps and bungees.

Basically like you see it in my avatar, but with the Can Am soft bags on the front rack and not the big trunk with chainsaw.

1,190 lbs!

Add me, 200lbs, and you are talking about a 1,400lb setup. Yep, and it still gets air just fine when riding the Harrison Hills/Parish highlands trails north of me.

Has anyone tried to upgrade from the manual fuel pump to electric? I already replaced the pump and it seems to still be acting up and ready to convert over to an electric.

any tips or recommendations?

Hello everyone. Currently looking at purchasing a Outlander Max XT. Definitely need the "2-up" version to be legal where we ride. Considering the 650 or 850, or maybe even splurging and looking at the Max XT-P in 850. Coming from the Polaris brand, knowing that every brand has it's know issues. So, I have a couple of questions and I am looking for some input.

1. What are the know issues with the Outlander ATVs?
2. Thoughts on overall quality and long term dependability.
3. Thoughts on Rotax 650 vs 850 engine.

thanks

Does anyone have 28x10x12 silverbacks on a g2 outlander? I’m wondering if I will need wheel spacers for the back? And should I be running a aftermarket secondary clutch spring? Thanks

Hey guys, I got a new renegade and I put 30 miles on it, needless to say I'm selling my fox shocks if anyone is interested please let me know thanks.
