I am looking to purchase a 2012 Sportsman XP 850 HO. I am new to the Polaris and I looking for some comments as to what to stay away from or what to look for.
Some info about myself I live in Florida and currently have a 2000 Honda Foreman 450ES. I mostly tail ride with some water and mud, and use it to get deer back to camp. Works great for what it does
I am looking to upgrade to a larger machine and have looked at the 850 XP HO something with more power selectable 2wd to awd.

Greetings new to this forum I’m thinking about getting in to the sport for me and my Better Half The ? is $6399.oo for a New 2016 Outlander DPS 570 A good price or can a little more be had off this asking price. Thanks in advance.

Now it fires up instantly and warms up and choke comes off so I can go for test drives. My speedo needle and mileage isn’t working but all else is working fine i the cluster so I cleaned the Hall Sensor but no dice so I ordered a new one. My 4WD switch works fine and it goes into 4WD.
I start it up and go for a ride up my rode and it runs well up to about 30 mph and then if at any time I try to go 50% throttle it will choke up and back fire out the exhaust unless I back off or go 100% throttle and the nit kicks in and takes off well. IS this due to the speed sensor being bad or is there a spark/ignition or carb problem that makes it spit fire at 50% throttle only? WOT and part throttle is smooth, maybe another set of plugs but I doubt it?

anybody out there looking to replace the bulb for the indicator , is no longer available. but radio shack #2721154 bulb will fit in the socket, it takes a little work to file down the plastic base but it is possible bend the wires back on the old bulb remove it from the socket good luck it worked for me . 2.50 is what I paid for the bulb not the 15.00 or more on line
2014 Renegade 1000 xxc cam built ons ported intake and clutches with gen4 fuel tuner. Made 78 whp, EVO claims stage 3 could net 8-10whp now I know MRRPM is in these forums I’m wondering with his race reflash and maybe +4 degrees of timing what results have been seen. Both cost about the same

I have a 2016 sportsman 850 HO bought in march. Ever since I’ve had it the exhaust pipe from the motor all the way back to the actual exhaust gets very hot and glows orange/red after riding it maybe 2 miles. It has even melted this black plastic piece near my leg multiple times dealer replaces it and "runs tests" says everything is normal. Obviously not the case. Is anyone else having this is Or have any suggestion on solving the issue? Really would like it resolved it can’t be good on motor and other components.
