2018 Outlander MAX XT 850

So I want to replace the crappy shocks.

I am torn between stage 1 2 or 3. I only do fast trail riding.
Stage 1 pretty basic and 400$ cheaper.
Stage 2 has rebound control but no low speed compression control.
Stage 3 has the opposite, no rebound control but low speed compression.

?????????? HELP!!!

New to the forum & in the final steps of purchasing my new machine.

I've loved seeing the Drive Mode switch upgrade & potential locking diff upgrade posts. Nice to see these can be done for a reasonable price on a base model rig!

Been looking around on the forum, youtube & google for aftermarket/homemade hard roof options. Will be using the machine's roof to fill feeders and predator hunt from so the plastic roof has no use to me. I've see a couple hard options (Probox & Ranch Armor) for sale but at ridiculous prices. Does anybody have pictures of homemade options they have built or seen?

Looking forward to seeing these options & getting my machine in the near future.

We started outfitting the 570 with some of the gear we had on the 2008.

Because the Ultility Edition has no lock and ride I had to come up with another way to mount the rear storage bin. I went to the hardware store and found some black steel with a 90 degree angle to bolt to the utility rack and we had some gun mount hardware kicking around. Helps keep my bin from sliding back and forward and it's easily removed.

I also took a section of the front basket out so the chainsaw fit better. Mounted the fishing rod holder to the back under the bin. Keeps it out of the way and snag free.

Hi I have a problem with my machine it stalls out while riding like it is running out of gas. It will start right back up and I can ride it again for 10 or 15 minutes then will do the same thing.also when the key is in the on position the fuel pump will turn on but never turns off I'm not sure but shouldn't it run to a certain pressure then turn off? Thanks in advance for any suggestions or input.

Hello all, so i have a 2018 Sportsman 570 base model and i am looking to upgrade the tires and rims from stock. My plan is to stud the stock tires for my winter outings and specifically for ice fishing. However i want to get some nicer wheels and rims for my spring/summer/fall riding. https://atvtirescanada.com/traxion-g...k-package.html i have found this package and with taxes i'm around $850 which i thought was a pretty solid deal. Only issue i'm running into is when i go to buy them they only give the option of Ace machines. my understanding is the 570 sportsman base and 570 Ace are both the same size stock tires; 25x8x12 and 25x10x12, so i don't think ill have any issues mounting and rubbing. Just looking for some insight to others opinions or if they've run into the same issue.

- Thanks

I am rebuilding a 2004 Polaris 700. The bottom piece of the cylinder broke and seized the piston to the cylinder and in return bent and ripped the bottom piece of the connecting rod out of the crankshaft. I got all new parts for it and I am starting to piece it back together. My question is do I have to prime or bleed the oil pump after the motor is all put together and in the bike? I know on the 400 and 500 you have to prime/purge the oil pump after a rebuild. I’m just a little concerned as I know the lifters are hydraulic and the incorrect oil pressure can screw things up in the top end. Thanks I’m advance!!

Have hmf , filter, programmer what clutch kit to buy? EPI, RVS, highlifter??? Running 26 tires mostly do trail and some mud

Looking underneath my Outlander I see the exhaust is rusting up and there are a few rock chips on black painted metal that are starting to rust.
So 2 questions:

Is there something I can apply to the exhaust to stop it rusting and to make it look prettier? Like spray on undercoat? Paint? Bed liner?
What about these small rock chip areas? Do you guys repaint those areas?

Thanks!
