Is it ok to keep a trickle charger on your battery at night when plowing? My quad always stalls when plowing into a bank even when going slow, sometimes it stalls when pushing the throttle right before reversing. Im a plow guy who does lots of peoples driveways and want the machine to be at its best. Please let me know if keeping the battery on during night is ok. And if there are other things I can do to stop the stalling.
2017 Polaris Sportsman 570
Is it ok to have 2 coil spacers in both front Suspension? And what is the recommended suspension for rear? This is for plowing just to let you guys know. These questions are just only for plowing, not for regular trail riding.
Carburetor issues
Hello well my carburetor is acting up. It’s confusing me because here’s the deal. I first cleaned it and seemed to be good. Apon really pushing it the first time I lost power at 30/40 mph.the idle screw worked fine. Well I rechecked it it again. This time apon running it it ran like a demon, I was up to 50 and still going. But the idle screw would not adjust at all. Turned in and out and nothing. I’ve double checked it twice taken it apart and no fix. Seems now when I push choke in all the way it goes dead. What to do now I’m just about ready to give up
Bracket for front A Arms for 2011 Outlander
I lost the stabilizing top bracket for the front A arms for my 2011 Outlander max 650xt. I don't want to buy a whole new kit for 2 parts. Does anyone know where I can get those two pieces or know the dimensions of them to get them manufactured?
AWD system…..no idea….??
01 sportsman 500 h.o 4wd.
Ive been battleing non working awd basically whole time ive had it. Now yesterday me and my buddy were doing some snow riding up on northern MI trails, and i must at some point accidently bumped the 4wd switch....
I was hammering up a hill (because, the 4wd dont work) when all of a sudden, damn near wide open, i hear a "BANG!" I immediatly laid off and got off. The brand new cv on the left side snapped right at the spline. So, my question is...wtf would make it never work...untill im hammering the piss out of it?

2017 450 starting issue
Having a problem with my 2017 450 stating in cold weather. The issue I am having is that in cold weather the starter is not engaging. I have to push the start button several times before the starter will engage and crank. Has anyone experienced the same issue? What was the fix? My machine is brand new with only 12 hrs of operation. The warranty is still in effect. My machine is back at the dealership. They will be talking with BRP to see what the fix is. Not confident BRP will have a fix.

Commander to Outlander Engine Swap
Hey guys,
I'm looking into replacing the engine on my 2013 Can Am Outlander 1000XTP.
There is a guy willing to sell me a 1000 engine out of a 2012 Commander for a good price.
Has anyone done this swap and can provide some more information? Thank you!

Misaligned rear tires.
Hello all,
I have a '15 Ace 570 that has it's rear tires out of alignment. Been this way since buying it. Bugging me more since my neighbor bought his 50" Maverick with perfect alignment.
The right rear tire is angled in at the top and toed in. The left rear is not as bad. I've seen others at dealerships and trails that are either better, the same and worse than mine. Wish Polaris had a better handle on the alignment of these frames.
The difference riding the Ace and behind it compared to my Grizzly is noticeable. When riding straight on a gravel type trail or loose dirt. You can plainly see the Ace kicking up debris outwards away from the machine and disturbing whatever your riding on. The Grizzly doesn't hardly leave a mark. Letting off the throttle on each and even moving them around in my garage shows with the incorrect rear tire alignment on the Polaris is def robbing HP (my Ace has a clutch kit to reduce the engine braking). I know the Ace being heavier contributes to this abit.
I noticed the bracket that holds the right rear supension arms is not welded as tight to the frame like the left. I'm know that is not helping. I have pics to show.
My bushings and bearings have no play.
Suspect the only way to correct this rewelding brackets and /or suspension arms?
Anyone else correct there machine?
