Plan on inspecting a used 570 today that has 1200 miles / 122 hours.

Anyone have an idea of what I should expect when doing a compression check?

Seems 130 psi is the desired norm based on several other models in the 500cc range, but being used I don't expect it to be quite that high.

Is there a range that will help me make a decision as to whether or not the reading I get seems relatable to the miles and hours put on the machine?

For example is 100 psi way too low, yet 120 could be expected and should indicate that the top end is still in pretty good condition?

Thanks for any input

I have an outlander 2013 model max 500 and i like it a lot, I’ve hunt with it quite a lot and ride it around. But I have been having hard time with it now. Has no more lights and no more handle bars warmer and the engine light is on but sometimes when I play with the wires it doesn’t do that anymore but goes back. What do I have to change? Wire harness? And which web is the best to shop?

anyone up for it ? i know rich and tom are out .

Hi, I am Kathleen and I am 69 living life large in Wasilla, Alaska. I just replaced my battery, and when connecting the terminal wires, the blower, assuming fan, comes on. The machine is off. No key in ignition. Can anyone help me with this issue? Thanks in advance. Blessings!

Picked them up from the powder coating guy! About 2” more clearance. Will have to play with preloads.

My exhaust manifold bolts keep coming loose.
They are not oem bolts but they are the correct size.
Can I use some blue loc tight or should I just order some oem bolts?

Just picked up a 2018 Scrambler a few weeks ago, awesome machine.

I've been reading that the front pinion cover is the must upgrade, since the stock one is weak and can break. I have also read that they upgraded the cover starting this year with the 2018's that apparently addresses this issue.

What do you guys recommend? Should I be safe or should I still swap it with an aftermarket, such as the cecco racing one.

Hey everyone ! I'm new to the forum but I've been riding just about everything since the late 60's. I just picked up a Polaris ACE 150 for my grandson that was sitting for about a year. The battery was weak so I installed a new battery. It started a few times but wouldn't rev up much and while idling would run for awhile then run out of fuel, I drained the fuel and added a small amount of dry gas in case of water in the system and it started running better, Now it won't engage the starter without jumping the solenoid. When the key is turned on you can hear the fuel pump start but when you turn farther to engage the starter no click and no attempt to start. Jump the solenoid and it starts. Still some performance issues but I'm hopping they'll work out of it. Could it be the solenoid or something I'm overseeing that won't send the signal to the solenoid? Thanks

Can anyone telling the best way to install halo lights on my outlander ,I'm thinking of tackeling it myself ,wondering if there are any things I should look out for while installing them?

Recently acquired a scrambler. Took it for a ride and shortly after it died while riding and lost all electrical power. Has a new battery. I'm starting to think the ecm fried. The ignition switch was not working so the plug had a jumper wire to start(with the help of a screwdriver arced across the solenoid to start). I dont see a fuse or circuit breaker anywhere on this atv, is there one? Also, how would I check the ecm to verify if its fried or not? Any help/info is appreciated.
