Have always been on a polaris, but the exploding front diff and polaris refusal to warranty it has me looking for another option for 2 up riding. I have a bad back and need to stand while riding much of the time. It looks like the out lander handlebars may be too short for standing. Any thoughts or solutions to this?

Any other major issues I should know about with the new models? Have they fixed the heat problems with the right side and the DPS failing in recent years?

I am looking at a 650 or 800 max.

Thanks.

I have two Xplorer's 1997 and 2000 both 400 CC with AWD. They both have the original tires and they are all really worn out. My main use for these is on my hunting property where there is everything from Ceder swamps to high hill country. I like the tire configuration but there is not much grip left.

Can anyone recommend a tread pattern/size/manufacturer and possibly where to obtain?

Happy New Year!

Just wondered if there is something I should look into since I have noticed the cooling fan running while I have been plowing. I only notice it when bending in front to change the blade angle, so don't know how long it is on.
The first few times were in the 20'sF but yesterday it was under 8F and could also smell a touch of antifreeze. In the summer, I can hear it kicking on and off when going slow on trails, but didn't know if it is common for this to occur when it's so cold.
Also, the coolant reservoir showed full, but the level changes when engine is cold vs hot.

Thanks!

Does anyone have any tips or tricks to keep your atv from freezing without a heated shop?
I store my quad in a shed but use it a few times a week but all my buttons freeze and I can't start it should I put dielectric grease in the buttons??
I have a 1999 sportsman 335

I've been away for a while but I thought a few months ago I read there was a recall on (some or all ??) 570's for the right side heat issues. If I remember right it said that dealers/Polaris would be contacting owners. I figured at the time I would wait until I heard something instead of just dragging mine in. I bought 2016 570 brand new last summer just before the 17's came out. Is there a recall for these and if so shouldn't someone have contacted me. Just curious, thanks

Hi guys,

on the joint picture I m pointing at the front frame tube opening on my sportsman 500, there an opening at the rear as well.
As water/durt can get in there, what do you do to prevent rust inside the tubes? do wnt my frame to rust from the inside...

Thank you.
