Hello Folks,
I have a 2017 Sportsman 570 Tourimg 2Up. It does not have EPS. Does that make it an SP? If so, what does “SP” stand for? Not even my manual specifies. If it does, I don’t see it.

Thank you.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me out I have a 95' 300 2x4. I’ve got a problem charging. Not sure is there a volt reg or a sensor to check other than the generator itself? At idle I’m reading 8.4volt iirc when I rev it even a little it starts charging and floored it’ll hit 15 volts. But as soon as it gets back to idle it’s drained back to 8.4 eventually dying. I've had it a few years and rarely ride it because I've had issues from the start. I replaced the starter redid the whole fuel lines/carb/pecock. Just wish I could keep it running I go out on trails on our property and can't shut it off or walk away longer then 5 seconds for fear it'll die (won't idle for long at all because the battery dies due to not charging..) Not sure if it matters either but I recently upgraded my battery to a riding mower battery to support my winch and extra led lights (had this problem before adding the winch/battery) but just thought I'd provide that info just in case?
Anyways, Any help would be great.
Thanks, Nick.

Hey guys this is my first post but I plan to be buying a 13-16 outlander 850/1000 in a few months so I’m already looking for mods I can do. The bike will be 50/50 trail and mud so it will have snorkels, tires, clutch kit and so forth when I can afford to do so. What is the actual reason for a fan override when the radiator was already relocated? I thought the purpose of a radiator was to keep mud out so it doesn’t overheat. Also any tips on what you think good mods to do first hand would be greatly appreciated!

Well i want to buy a can am out-lander 450 but i see theres problems with them or any can am but i love can am. Are some the problems because of people that dont take care of them or is it just the manufacturer. Im just worried that ill have to eventually have to fix it every time i go out. im talking about the diff, axles, fuel pumps... i understand every 4 wheeler has a problem like that but i feel like i see it more in can am or is that just me?

Hey guys,

Just got a 2013 Can Am Outlander 500 base with 90 hours for 4k, looking forward to learning all the in's and outs. Came from various different brands of 4 wheelers and motorcycles. Had a Can Am dirt bike back in the early 80's.

Hi Everyone ! Need some wisdom and direction from you guys and gals ! Purchased a Used Glacier II Plow System, Blade, and Plow Frame off Craigslist (probably my first mistake). Guy told me he didn't have the mount, it was on a 2006 Polaris Sportsman 800 that he had sold many moons ago, anyway of course I heard the ol' " you can pick one up off ebay for 80 bucks or whatever, which usually means there are none actually on the planet, and probably would have to hire Elon Musk to fly me to Mars and find one ! Ok enough of the jokes..... I took a chance, since it was in such good shape, and of course I can't find one anywhere. I've narrowed it down that the Plow Frame is from 2012, part# 2878821... I've looked at about 1000 different mounts and some look like its possible they could work. I have a 2015 Polaris Sportsman 570, of which no Plow Mounts are actually made for this machine. My question is, has anyone out there tried any other mounts for the Glacier II, either for Atv's or Utv's and have they worked on a newer Sportsman, Its the Lock and Ride, so that may be harder to figure out, Can any of the exsisting Mounts from other models be modified to work with my 570..... Any help would be appreciated......

hey guys I'm trying to find a lock and ride rear storage box for my 1000 xp. The polaris website lists the xl box and only it ! , I currently have the part number 287176 rear storage box from my 800 efi but it does not fit my xp due to the rear rack extender being in the way does any one know if the "ultimate series" rear storage box 2882882 fits the older xp chasis atv ?

Does anyone out there have the bimini roof for the X3. If so what is your opinion of it, how is it holding up, and any other experiences with it.

Thank you.
