New to the ATV community just got my Sportsman 570SP today. So far I love it and excited about getting out on the trails with it.Attachment 24335

Been lurking for quite some time. Finally purchased my first ATV, a 2014 550 X2. I finally joined the forum to ask for advise once I had narrowed down my purchase to two machines and I appreciate very much the viewpoints everyone shared. I currently live about 30 miles SW of Chicago, but will be using the ATV to work on prepping 7 acres of woods in Ky near lake Barkley. The lot is 8 miles from Land Between the Lakes and I figure that I will be doing an equal share of trail riding. This is my first ATV and am looking forward to enjoying it for many years.

I think pictures are usually considered proof that it happened so I submit this as evidence

Picked up our new Sportsman 570 today. Never owned one before. Brand new, EFI, base model for $5300 plus tax and title.

So the dealer is telling me to keep it in low gear unless I am consistetnly over 25mph such as on a trail. Does this sound right? The manual says anything ounder 7mph to keep in low gear. Whats the popular wisdom on this?

Hello everyone new guy here in New Mexico. I am not new to 4wheelers but this is my first polaris. I just picked up a 2004 sportsman 500ho. The quad had 36 hrs on it when I purchased fs and it runs like a dream. I did a lot of research on this site before making my purchase. Looking forward to getting to know the members here.

I just purchased a 2001 scrambler 4 by 4 and the clutch seems to not engage till the rpm’s go up. this is my first automatic atv, I’ve had sleds but this is the first atv, it just seems like the take off should be smoother.

Hi, I’m new, sry about the hijack , didn’t read enough , I’m thinking..
I have an 02 and 05 sportsman both are working in 4wd , I can’t see anything happening with the speedo or odometer, it would be nice to know how fast I’m going, some of the trails have posted speed , and if it’s effecting my 4wd it should be fixed ,
I’m an electronics diagnostic tech but I haven’t had much experience with atv systems , I’m going to be doing tests to find the actual fault, just thought if anyone may have run into this before it would speed up the process
Thank you

Hi everyone.I have a 2014 850 scrambler with 1354 miles and the a arm mounts in the rear are egged out and the lower frame brace welds are broke.Is this a common problem.
