Hello everyone, im from woodbury MN but ride all over MN and WI but mainly northern MN. I have a 2016 sportsman 570 that i am building, it has a 2" black path bracket lift, 2500# talon winch, 27" ITP 589 tires, 12" ITP chrome wheels and am planning on putting new rhino axles and a QSC clutch kit in along with some more aggresive tires. I look forward to maybe setting up a group ride in MN with new people!

I have a 2012 sportsman 850 and the power steering quits after changing the relay for it. I took it to the dealer and they replaced the relay and took it for a ride it worked for a few minutes and quit. they said they were contacting polaris about this but I was wondering if anyone had any similar problems??

I picked up a 41 x 48 harbor freight trailer for $150 off of craigslist. This trailer was built specifically to be towed by my sportsman. Tell me what you think.

My Ranger (TaskMaster-2006) is now 10 years old. Me and my wife use it daily for hauling horse manure and any thing that needs to be hauled or moved on our farm.

The gear shift lever has recently started to lock up or get real hard to shift after the engine runs for a couple of minutes. It works perfect before it has ran for a few moments. Any experience of solving this problem is greatly appreciated. I am a complete novice to mechanics and only do the basic maintenance required.

hey guys i was having issues with my ’13 (big surprise) in regards to the throttle position error and it was idling shitty so i bought a used throttle body and put it on now i’m getting an check engine code 51 3, which is a grounded injector i believe. anyone ever had this issue before or have any advice? thanks.

Hello,

So the other weekend I decided to use my grizz as a boat and let me tell you she didnt like that one bit…. So after my many oil changes and making sure moisture is out of the cylinder I finally got it running nice.

However since then my reverse light is stuck on and I cant reverse well. its makes like a bogging noise at first I thought it was the CVT but I inspected it and it looks good.

Yesterday it went away for about 20 min and the reverse is working fine, so I am assuming its electrical. I am by no means a pro but I like working on my own bike so I was wondering where I should start looking?

My bike also doesnt hold a charge but when the reverse light went away it held a very small charge. Before swamping it the battery seemed to be great. Any help is appreciated!!!

I have a 2013 can am commander that cuts off after riding for awhile with no warning lights or codes,RPM’s goes real real high but barely moving then just gradually cuts off and when starts rights back idles rough,any help will be appreciated.

After much debate, internet research, quote gathering, going around in the wrong town looking for machines I pulled the trigger and purchased a new 2016 Sportsman 570 EPS.

So I live in San Diego and have a house outside of Cascade, Idaho. The unit is for Idaho. So I was trying to find various models to look at here in SD which, as it turns out is not that easy as most of the dealers here specialize in go super-fast types for desert riding. Was comparing the Yamaha Kodiak against the Polaris and decided on the Polaris as the machine that would be wife friendly (enough) if she chooses to ride it, comfortable enough for the teenagers, if i let them ride it, and priced more reasonably than the Yamaha, and will be well taken care of and generally fairly gently and occasionally utilized.

So now to the purchase. Sourced all the dealers in Boise and the local dealer near McCall. Dealer near McCall out the gate had the best price, located a unit from another dealership, and will deliver to the house, no extra charge. I don’t have a trailer to move it. Winner, winner, chicken dinner.

All bought and paid for over the phone, just have to wait until I’m at the Idaho house to take delivery in 2 weeks. Oh yeah, have to get insurance and an OHV sticker to make if fully legal.

Very excited and looking forward to my first ride. All’s i’ve got now are a big credit card bill and a couple of pictures. Sort of like my other internet experiences <—joke.

I am not mechanically inclined so the thought of spending my limited vacation time fixing stuff is a non-starter so really planning on this unit to be super reliable. Have read the threads on break-in procedures etc. Can’t wait for that time to expire and then move on to the great fun.
