I've had my Outlander for about a year (2 months pre-recall, 7 months of recall/can't use, and 3 months of can use--but that's a different discussion).


Anyway, I'm an old retired guy with about 20 acres in Missouri, which consists of a pretty extensive lawn that's not real level, a large pond, and about 14 acres of woods.



The ATV is used mostly for land maintenance and going fishing.


What I'm looking for is a way to temporarily limit the top speed of the Outlander. I use it to pull a Swisher mower, a sprayer, a spreader, a harrow...you get the idea. None of the things I pull with the ATV should really be pulled faster than 5 or 6 MPH, and it is fairly difficult to maintain a speed like that with the little thumb control. I know about the little limiting screw, but that's not a good solution.


What I'd like to find is something that could be controlled with a toggle switch so when I am working, I could just flip the switch and the top speed would be limited, but when I'm playing, it would perform like it does now.



Does such a thing exist?


Thanks for any advice.

I have a 2 pin plug, black and red wires left side exit just below speedo screen, has 12volts key on power, any ideas what this is for?

Hello! I recently bought a 2016 Polaris 570 and since the day I bought it it has had stalling problems. It was never beat on the person I bought it from rode it on a farm in Virginia, but she did say it Saturday for a while & she would only run it to keep the battery charged. It first started on my first ride with it I was just driving around and it shut off mid ride and wouldn’t drive since then. It would turn over and idle but as soon as I put it in gear to drive and hit the throttle it would shut off or barley drive and backfire till it shut off. It would also read “LO 10.8” on the screen occasionally not all the time. Charged the battery all night, didn’t fix it. so I went ahead and changed the voltage regulator. Didn’t fix the problem. Took it to the shop they said it was a bad fuel pump. Got the fuel pump changed. It ran back to normal after that except when I hit the throttle quickly it had a slight hesitation. Well today about 2 weeks after replacing the fuel pump, I started it back up and it was doing the same problem. I would turn the key and it would start but when I reved it up in Park it would cut off. I took it for a ride and it’s would constantly stall mid acceleration. And now it just sits and idles rough like it wants to stall untill it does like 5 seconds later. I’m not knowledgeable at all with atv’s and fixing them but I’m stumped and I’d rather get others opinions before spending another 500$ and not get the problem fixed. Any idea what it could be now?

My wife has been wanting an ATV for 18 years. I finally got her a 95 Explorer 4x4, with a little luck, some advice, and a few parts, I hope to get it running.

Hi I have a 2016 Outlander 850 XMR after washing it it’s acting up, with the ignition key off/ or completely out of the ignition it powers on the lights and gauge pod as if the key was cycled on. I put key in and cycled the key a few time then back to off and 10 minutes later it power itself back up. To clarify i have a 2016 so it has a key not the new style that eliminated the keys ignition! anyone had this issue and what was the fix?

New here! We had taken apart our 2007 sportsman 500 x2 and after a few months have no idea where this bracket goes. Any help would be awesome!

Hello everyone, name is Nadeem and I live in Ohio.
Been looking to buy atv for a while now, was looking at the renegade and outlander 800. Never been on an atv before until couple of days ago and they took me to Perry national forest in ohio on a honda 250x with rear brake that lock instantly lol. Then the 2nd half of the day I rode with my buddy in his side by side 450 rzr in which I liked for a couple of reasons. I'm a big dude 280lb and going down steep hill was kinda sketchy and didn't like that much, maybe because of the machine I was using and the day before was raining like crazy and everything was wet and slippery. After that experience I start to re-think my decision on can am after that 250 landed on top of me one time lol. How would the renegade and Outlander handle on those terrains ? Especially going down since that was my biggest concern.
Sorry for the long post

Hi guys, im new to this forum and just got my first 4 wheeler. I picked up a 1993 polaris trailboss 250 2 stroke 4x4. I got a good deal on it and its been a garage kept machine and is in very nice shape. I rebuilt the carb and flushed the tank(found out the petcock leaks like a sieve) anyway i got it running good. I greases all fittings and agdjusted the chains and flushed the brake system. Now i was told by my polaris dealer that it takes 100cc of 10w30 on the counter balance behind the pull starter and 20 oz of agl for the tranny. I forgot to ask if the cluch and hubs take any fluid. Does anyone know if they take fluid and what kind? Thanks in advance for these stupid questions.

Picked up my new ride a few weeks ago. Have put about 150 Kms on it now. Love it!

I'm in the market for a new pipe for my machine and I'm looking for some guidance. This is my first canam I've owned, I've had grizzlies in the past. My question is can I just purchase a slip on exhaust? Do I need the whole exhaust system? Also do I need the optimizer? I'm thinking an hmf pipe but if anybody has any other suggestions go for it.
Thanks
