Hey guys,

I'm looking to buy my first atv and looking to get a little feedback on what to purchase. I'm looking at a polaris 570 but have also looked at a yamaha kodiak 700 and a can am 570. More than anything I'll use it to clean up around my pastures and woodlines, ride the occasional trail and take on a few deer hunts each year.

For folks already owning one of the fore mentioned atvs any advice? Or are there some I haven't mentioned that I need to look at? Being a polaris forum I know folks may have a little bias but it is the brand I've been looking at the most.

new to forum , I recently purchased a 2017 sportsman 850 base model with steel wheels and I'm curious as to the weight of the rims compared to aftermarket aluminum rims , is their a big weight savings ? I'm also going to install Pro Armor Daggers and considering the cost of the tire i want to stay with the stock rim but concerned on the overall weight . one last thing i will be adding is an EPI clutch kit to help out. any thoughts would be appreciated Thanks in advance .

So picked up a plow for super cheap. Needed some work but got it ready. It is an older cycle country. My question is am I tied to only that manufacturer for the mount or can any manufacturers mount work with this push tube?

I have a 2011 commande 800. When I let off the gas the side by side still rolls when I hit the brakes it shuts off and will not come out of gear until I rock it back and forth. I have already changed the one way bearings. I also noticed when I was taking it apart it secondary clutch would not spread open with the bolt same thing when I was reassembling it. I am stI'll having the problem with the clutch not disengaging. Does anyone one have any suggestions

Hey guys
I am going to buy a new outlander any week now and curious if the dealer promotions that end on october 31st usually get better afterwards or should i actually rush out before this deadline?
Also curious what types of negotiating you might have some to "sweeten the pot"???
I am thinking about a plow as well as i have a +300 driveway and sick of snowblowing.

So before I begin with my inquiry, I know this topic has been discussed many of times, but most of the information pertaining to the older vehicles, to me are outdated. So I'm going to dig into this in hopes that somebody has some insight on some newer tech.

Being that I have an older machine, I'm not able to do some of the headlight mods I've seen. Example, the flush pods. My headlight opening just isn't big enough for the common 4.7-5" x 3-3.5" that I have seen.

I have seen some 3-3.5" x 2.5-3.5" squares that might work in the opening, just unsure of performance. Pods aside, I have also just given up in the search for the perfect fit and just go with LED bulbs.

Ideally I would want a bulb with anywhere between 18-24W draw, producing anywhere between 1000-2000LM.


That is, in a nutshell, my end game. Get this bundled up before winter so I can give my winch/plow all the power it will need without triggering my low voltage gauge.


So what y'all think? Any and ALL suggestions are welcome. Thank You :)
