I just bought a new 2016 sportsman 570 sp
last august. The machine was riding pretty good besides some clucking noises it would make on take off or when I went over bumps ( the dealer said to break it in and it will go away ) and it was hard to put it in gear sometimes.

I have 24 hours and 90 miles on it now and I recently took it to the Baja for a week
As soon as got there I started to have issues.

1st
When I would push the throttle steady to cruise at about 2200 rpm it would drop to 2000 rpm and then go back to 2200 rpm and drop again. Until I punch it and get over the 2200 the 570 would ride fine as long as I keep it over 2200 rpm. At this time the 570 would idle at normal when warmed up at 1200 - 1250 rpm


2nd
Then the 570 at idle would go up and down from about 1200 to 2000 rpm until it would eventually shut off. But if I ride it would stay on until I stop then it when shut off.
During all this time I was checking the air filter , hoses , adjusted the throttle cable and nothing seemed to be wrong. The only thing I did notice was the spark plug was a little black at the tip.

So finally the last two days i stopped messing with it and I drove the 570 with these issues because it would ride as long as I keeped it over 2200 rpm.
Then when I got back to the states i was getting it ready to take it to the dealer when I notice a lot of oil in the air filter box and no oil on the dip stick.

I am pretty pissed that these issues are happening with only 90 miles on this thing

Any of you stump jumpers wanna do another ATV ride, like in Nemadji or something similar? Did one a couple years back and would like to do another!

Hi all,
Bought a non running 1993 350 trail boss and was told it had carb problems and needed brake work. Went to drain the counterbalance oil and more coolant came out than oil. Ugh!

Obviously the seal and bearings are shot but does the counter balance always (or almost always) need to be replaced when this happens?

Any good sources for bearings and counterbalance from someone you all trust?

Thanks in advance for your help.

I recently purchased a 6x12 trailer. I'm now wishing I got the 14', but no going back now. My question is, Will the 850 or 450 fit if I side load? I haven't tried it yet, just wondering if anyone has done it or not. I tried loading them both end to end and 12' wasn't long enough.

So I had the dealer install my snorkel extension on my xmr 1000 and it fits fine ... except for the hole I know have. When I ordered this I asked over and over if anything else was needed and they said no .... but I am reading that the pod needs to be replaced with and XT ? or am I incorrect. I cant believe that the kit would not have that issue addressed or is something missing from kit ? I called can am and they act like they have no clue .....

I got a line on a set of stock rims off of a 2008 Sportsman 500, Id like to mount a set of other tires on. I need to know if these will fit my 2015 Sportsman 570 EPS? Please let me know! Thanks!

177miles/29.8 hours. Completely stock except for Polaris handguards and ATV Guru front bumper. Bike is in excellent shape. Bought for my 15 year old kid he learned how to ride on it and just isn't into it. It has been gently used, probably because he isn't into it! Heck we did an 8hour safety course that would use up some of that time. First service has been done after the 25 hour break in period. Bike is located in Lowell, Arkansas. Asking $4400

198 miles/59.3 hours. It has a KFI winch mount, aluminum flare lead for rope winch cable (no winch), Rick Cecco front diff upgrade, Ogio rear bag, fender flares and hand guards. Also has a modified ATV GURU front bumper. It was made for this bike, but did not include lower protection so I added the stock bottom to it. I also added to the skid plate on the original Skid plate to make it stronger. Bike is in Excellent Condition, adult ridden by yours truly only. As you can see by the hours vs miles it was not fast riding. I'm old and bought way too much machine. Thought the kid would be more into 4 wheeler, he isn't. So I'm selling both bikes. Located in Lowell, Arkansas. Asking $9000

Hello Everyone.

I'm new to Montana, New to ATVing and New to the Forum. My family and I just moved to Montana about 6 months ago and as soon as we got here, I knew it was time to get some off road toys. I was able to acquire a 2013 Polaris Sportsman 850 XP EPS with 2k miles. I've put about 60 miles on it and I'm in love. I love using Forums to find out peoples experiences with their machines. I hope to gain a lot of information from this Forum and learn new things.
