Oil level High Sportsman

I have 2005 600 Sportsman, with 330 miles. Doesn't leave the property anymore. Light snow plowing.

The oil level reads high on dipstick. I noticed this before, been worried gas draining into oil. I just changed the oil, since I had everything on hand. Still reads high. So I should be able rule out gas. I turned the petcock off, which I don't normally do.

Search on here I say some talk of draining from another spot. I have a factory manual. Just says to remove plug at bottom.

I was just thinking how much easier it is to change, than my side by side. Other than filter is could be easier.


Is there another spot I should be draining? Is it really an issue? To much pressure? Do I have some other problem? Only thing different than manual was it was in park and N.

Thanks.

2006 600 Sportman. Stock. Did roll on creek once. Took plugs out blew water out, cleaned carb. Also had to replace coolant hose, it got a stick in it. On 3rd ECM, 2nd went up in flames.

Best battery for a HL 1k?

Ive got rock lights and a lighted whip, with them turned on battery dies in about 30. I just picked a 500watt sound bar and I'm sure it'll eat through the battery in no time too. Was wondering what direction others have gone with their batteries.

Any help and or pictures he’ll even a video would help immensely, I’m not trying to break this dang quad

2013 Polaris sportsman 400 HO

I just got this bike. New battery. Have been thru it all. First the dash was flashing hot. Changed the radiator temp sensor. It runs and rides and fan kicks on. But when I turn the key on, the first screen say V 3.1 then it turns to a screen that says .8 and under it has a wrench and a battery icon.
I can fire the bike up, put it in gear(L or R) and the normal screen will come on. It will flash a wrench for a few seconds then a battery as well. While running it will not switch screen with the override button. Any suggestions?

10 hr service on 18 renegade 1000xxc

So I just hit a little over the 10 hr break in mark and i decided to do my first service. Obviously i know it's not required at this time but I'm a maintenance freak and i love to wrench on my toys and keep them nice. So the rear diff and gear box or transmission the fluid was actually very dirty and metal flaked so I'm glad I did it. No water getting in so that's a good sign.the engine is not done just yet Im finished for the night. Got to run the motor to warm it up before I drop the oil. As for the front diff, if u guys buy the brp aluminum skid plates like I did make sure u drill the drain hole before installing it,makes it a lot easier than having to go back and take it off like I half to. Which sucks, but didnt think about it at the time of installation.so I'll get to that tomorrow. But my point being is doing maintenance before it's due can help out a lot in the long run.

Anyone have a Warn Provantage on a 2015 850 SP?

Has anyone installed a front mount Warn Pro-Vantage on a 2015 Sportman 850 SP?

I mounted the bracket to the ATV last night. I have a Polaris Pro HD winch already installed and it had bolt holes in it. I did not use the winch mounting plate that came with the Warn kit. No issues withe mount or operation.

My question is, did you get the front plastic cover back on? And if so, did you have to modify the cover to get it on? I tried to put them on behind the Warn mounting bracket but I could get holes to line up with the cover in place. Looks terrible without it plus there is no cover for the winch. TIA
