Upgrading bars and risers. Need opinions

Hello folks.

I’m looking into upgrading to aluminum handle bars on my outty 570. Not really sure what to go with. I would like a similar bend to stock. I see the “CR” bend is popular/common and I’m considering the “Atv high bend”. 7/8” bars should be fine for my needs.

I don’t want a cross bar. Would like better visibility of the gauge pod and would like to use a square bar pad.

I also want risers. The stock height is ok but could be taller. I’m 6’1” I see roxspeed fx has a nice pivot riser as well as powermadd. Which best fits the Can am? 2” rise should be plenty.

Also some thoughts on hand guards and hand grips would be a plus.

Thanks guys!

New Member – Polaris Sportsman 550 XP

Good afternoon,

New to the forum and new to Polaris. Previously owned a Kawasaki Trike and a Suzuki Quad Runner, many years ago. Have had an 85 Honda Big Red for a few years and i love it but i have been wanting to get a quad for some time now.

I still have the Big red and will never get rid of it but after a lot of research and a lot of searching i decided on a Polaris Sportsman. this past weekend I purchased 2010 Polaris Sportsman 550 XP.

It is in mint condition and drives like a dream, it came with a plow, 2 up seat, new winch, windshield, etc...

so basically all i need to do at this point is ride...

I will be doing the brakes on it in the spring and i also want to do a complete fluid and filter change. That was all apparently done in the fall and i am sure it was but i want to do it pretty soon just for peace of mind knowing it was all done before i really start riding it a ton.

Any advice or feedback on things to know, things to do, etc.. would be greatly appreciated. currently the only thing i am on the hunt for is the service manual.

thanks

Jason
