I am looking at a 2017 570 utility edition and wondering about the "lower" gearing it has. How would it compair to my 2015 570 eps? Would my wife and I have issues trail rideing together if one of us was on the utility edition? Typically we would use this machine for halling fire wood but would like to trail ride and drive on dirt roads together. Would the machine be ok at higher speeds for prolonged periods of time now and then with the low gearing? Is the engine gonna be screaming if I take it up to 40mpg? I know this is a work machine and it has a lot of things I like but want it to serve a few different roles, is it possible or should I just be looking at another 570 eps?
Thank you so much.

I need to change my spark plugs but i can only get to one of them,right side panel. The other one i cannot find,and there are no pics or post that tell you where they are.Is there anyone have any idea where they are? Im troubleshooting a cylinder issue and replacing spark plugs is one i need to do .Thank you.

I'm in the UTV research mode. Narrowed down to HD8 or Ranger. Hope to learn some things here. This will be my first UTV or ATV. Just bought vacation home in northern WI last year.

AWD not engaging. Took it to my local Polaris Dealer. They said when the switch is to AWD. It's working. ITS NOT! Nearly killed myself trying to load it on my truck. Also, they said not to worry about the E when in neutral and low that came up not too long ago. Can anyone tell me what's going on?

Thanks

Got this from Amazon the other day:

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

And decided to install today. I think it came out pretty good. (Pats self on back). Simple job. I drilled the hole with a hole saw (VERY CAREFULLY) and it's just a simple + and - hookup. I tapped the red wire from the back of the cigar lighter socket to power it, so that it turns off with the key.

*Note... I'm not sure why, but the actual numbers would not show up on camera. In person... they are as clear as could be.

i have a 2008 out lander i got on a trade. it starts up, but stalls out when i give it gas. monitor says limp home. I have noticed moisture at the top of both cylinders, and a loss of engine oil. I am really looking forward to getting this thing running. any advice would be greatly apreacieated.:crying

Been all over the internet searching for advice so I figured I'd post this here too.

My PIA 2008 Sportsman 500 EFI Project has reached hurdle 347(ish). This thing has been under water in the past and was eventually run out of oil before sitting for a few years.

After getting the engine back together and in the unit I attempted to fire it up for the first time since I owned it.

Started up and idled, not sure of idle speed, it seemed low to me but I'm new to this. Ran for 2 or three 1-15 second bursts trying to prime the pump. I gave it just a bit of gas and the engine revved slightly then died. I have not been able to get it to restart.

The display shows the following codes which I am unable to clear.
22 TPS Low/high
45 MAP low
46 MAP high
47 IAC Short to ground
51 injector open or shorted to ground or battery

1) has spark
2) cam timing is correct
3) fuel pressure at the injector
4) fresh fuel


Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I just picked up an 06 sportsman 500 HO EFI with 700 miles on it. The 4x4 will not disengage. Any ideas on what it could be? Thanks

Just bought a new 2018 Xmr1000r Renegade and was wondering if there a harness at the rear of the quad for a reverse light to be added? How did you boys wire up yours to come on in reverse?:aniwheeler6:
