So this video just got ruined... copyright strike from youtube for a music track I purchased to use in this video. Expect some weird audio transitions now as this has been stripped out and replaced with the wrong music tempo. Sucks
TH-cam is absolutely terrible with the copyright takedowns and strikes. The process is bad, the review of fair use is bad and gives power to literally anyone claiming copyright regardless of whether they have any interest in the actual copyright. You need to stick to using music that’s clearly in the public domain to even have a chance at fighting it.
I just purchased this exact unit yesterday,same year and color, with 195 miles on it,and the power steering, is going to be great..Im 68 and this is my first ATV.Wont be doing crazy stuff ,just cruising..
I personally used this quad last year until i got a renegade 850 2019 i am 6 feet tall age 16 and i loved the thing it was the best i had a 2015 sportsman 570
Seems like you've had yours a little longer than I have, had any issues yet? I've put about 600 miles on my 22 570 Trail and haven't had a single issue yet.
Great video! Bought 2 570's 2017 and had them for a year now. Agree with everything you said. Wiring harness for the winch control is pre-installed at the factory which takes a little bit of the headache out of install. The only complaint of this machine is that the battery on both of them had to be upgraded to a bigger one and the relays for the EFI system do not like the extreme cold. Overall I love these machines.
Very well done video.As a 62 yo noob looking to get my first atv, it was very informative. The opening sequence showing how you ride and utilize the machine was great. Excellent review!
Good review, I have the 2017 570 and agree on the EBS. It is too strong even after 800 miles. I've rolled mine twice and bent the bars. But overall a great machine. I've broke a latch on the front compartment and had to reinforce the hinge as I broke that riding a little too rough. I ride very aggressively and have dented 3 of the rims, but the bike is still running well. I would buy it again.
I have two of them great machines. Good video review. Polaris should go back to putting battery under seat. Where it is now is stupid and not easy to take out if need be. I use mine hard and have only minor issues in the last four years, buying a new one this week. Overall great machines!!!
Looks like a pretty solid and honest review, especially considering the time and miles you put on it. I was set on a Honda but the price and maybe ho hum power makes me think if Polaris can't give me what I need. That squeak and no metal racks though... Sure looks like a beautiful area where you are riding.
Man, you must be in heaven with all that terrain around you. Those hills look awesome and man I bet ya you can ride all day there. Anyway thank you for the video, very well done. I gave it a gigantic thumbs up. 👍👍
New sub, great vid, look forward to more. I currently own, Honda, 500 Foreman, and older, but in great shape Yamaha 660 Griz..... I ride with a guy who just one 2 yrs ago, he loves it.
I have a 16’ 570 My steering squeaks on that with EPS as well. I have a 16’ 450 same squeak and it’s not EPS. But The EBS in my 570 drives me crazy! I hate it id rather have standard on both. I hate how it holds you back around corners and when you go slower speeds always doesn’t seem to know what to do. I’ve learned if you feather the brake and the gas a certain way is doesn’t activate the engine brake.. Other then that it’s gotten me through mostly everything on factory tires. I like it a lot.
I added the diode in the headlight wiring that allows all 3 lights to be on. Low beam is 2 lights, high beam is all 3. You would be surprised to know having the 3d light on does absolutely nothing as you would expect. No real world illumination difference. I was one of the many lucky ones who got the faulty BOSCH fuel pump that failed in less than 20 hours. Since it was out of their generous 6 month warranty they expected me to pay like $650.00 to fix it. I put my own in for $40 bucks... The way I see it is that a warranty is a show of confidence by the manufacturer that the product is good. 6 month warranties tell me that its supposed to be good until you get it home and then it's your problem. Just like I got burned owning a Dodge lemon, I will never buy polaris again. Next time I will pay a little more and get a quality brand like Honda. Just my 2 cents. The single best thing I think you can add to any atv is the gator gripp attachment. I can hold a 12 ft long pole saw, shovel, you name it in the grip and never comes loose- I dont know why the gator gripp doesn't come as a factory accessory.
Great review and great videos of riding. Question....have you ridden an 850? and if so, how big is the power difference. I am an aggressive dirt bike rider (been out of 4 wheelin' for many years) and a bit worried that I'll need/want more power to do everything. I assume that is why you are considering a 1000?
I bought a new '14 570, have 2k + miles, I horse whip it all the time. it has been completely reliable! Polaris fixed the hot leg problem for free. I do wish i had the EBS model, it is a hard steering machine and the lack of EBS makes it a drag to go down long hills. The engine has good power, my buddy's new grizzly barely out runs me but the 570 has a better center of gravity and is more confident when the trail gets gnarly. I love the AWD system, I switch it in and out on the fly all the time. Matt, you would be happy to swap out those cheap stock tires!
Great review! My buddy just bought one of these and had it in the shop within 100 miles due to electrical issues from water crossing (was not deep). However, beyond that it is holding up well and he really likes it. I personally want one after reading about proper care for belt break in and when to use high / low to avoid belt issues. My goal would be to ride stock through warranty and then I would upgrade to a tougher belt AND clutch or cvt (whatever they are called) kit. Living in Alaska and being about 5 hours outside of town for some riding and another 2-3 hours back on a trail makes sense to bullet proof the system.
I live in maine and someone is selling a 2014 for 3k. Only 3k miles never seen mud with brand new tires. It will be my main trail wheeler while my 83 big red will be my utility and ice fishing wheeler.
I like mine and I'm in Maine also :-) got it used with 800 mile on it and runs great. You had to pay sales tax when you brought into Maine to have it registered. :-) and it's a four wheeler not a bike just joking with ya...lol
I just bought a new 2018 570 couple days ago. It has the power and the AWD in the mud is awesome. It has the power. Anyone know a way to cover the battery. Olay thing I don’t like is battery location.
The 570 is by FAR the best value ATV on the market, I've got the 570 Touring EPS and it's a awesome trail machine. Can't beat Polaris true On Demand AWD, it will pull you threw anything if you have a good set of tires. the 489's AT Stock tires are really cheap in my opinion.
The 570 might be the best value today, but Polaris really screwed themselves in 2016 when they put the de tuned 570 engine in the 450 ho. You could get the 450 a lot cheaper, tune, pipe, and clutch kit, and bigger tires if you wanted and still be under the price of the 570. Only difference is the drive by wire on the 450.
J H you are now having problems after 18 years and you’re complaining? Sounds to me it was built to last. Atv’s are just like cars. You have to take care of them to make them last.
My 570 is the biggest pile of junk on earth. Its snapped 3 cv shafts that wer dry from the factory. It has a charging probblem were it destroys batterys every 3 months. It also has broke the weights off the clutch 3 times. And the guage cluster gose wacko somtimes when you start it. They say theres nothing wrong with it. Junk. First polaris i have ever owned and i will never buy another.
Matt Justice [Clever Leverage] yeah man that would be a good idea I think the best part of the video was the whole demo in the beginning compared to slow only talking videos cause I ride similar to you. Good stuff for sure
The storage is great! I just wish they wpuld have made the lid a bit more sturdy! I just got a 2019 touring! And love it! Nothing fancy just base model no power sterring or ebs. Its a great machine in my opinion! Others hate them because they expect to buy it beat the hell out of it and expect it not to break!
Agreed. I hate that I can't grab the lid like a rack and pull on the machine. Yep, but I just got off a Honda, and while it'll last 20 years, man the ride quality just isn't there. Polaris is faster, smoother, and can cover more ground per day. (yep, you'll have to replace some bearings from time to time, but soooooo much more comfortable)
I have a 2017 570 with EBS/EPS similar to yours. The one thing that drives me crazy is the EBS. If I let off the throttle under 10mph is almost stops you in your tracks. I have about 400 miles on it and it hasn't gotten any better. I think I need to look into a clutch kit.
VeRn allen mine did that as well, was out swamping in the back country in Alaska and had grass and mud cake up on top of the muffler, it caught fire and as soon as it did I jumped off and luckily had water bottles in the front compartment to put the fire out. In the end I had to pull the rear storage compartment.
Polaris should have figured the prolem and fixed it I bought mine used in winter didn't no how hot they got it the recall fix expired one month after I noticed how bad it was I just don't drive it in over 70 I don't want it to catch fire I always have my 4 year old riding with me
how can you get it to wheelie so easily ? i have a 2017 570 and it wont wheelie (i did put on pro armour tires and rims 26x11 rear and 26x9 Front) and a front and rear pro armour bumper
Anyone that complains about the quad bottoming out, while the shocks are on the lowest setting, doesn't need a 1000. Also, a 570 isn't an "entry level quad".
Hey matt question I also have as 2015 Polaris 570 and it doesn’t seem like I have all that horse power like you have on yours my quad doesn’t go up like yours does have you done any thing to your bike to ride like it does
A lot of it is rider ability and body weight mechanics while staying the powerband bud… keep in mind I’ve been riding for over 25 yrs too. If you want it to be perkier, prob clutch kit first
Great review man, I read your review on clever leverage as well. I'm in the market for a rec/utility. Main purpose is for my wife to start riding the trails with me here in AZ. She wants a SxS but I think a smaller bore 4x4 with eps would save me some money. I've been looking at the 2018 polaris 450 with eps. I know there is only a $500 difference between the 450 and 570 but I'm afraid she may whisky throttle and the quad would flip (thinking less likely on the 450). Do you have any thoughts about the 450? Also looking into can am.
My sportsman 500 squeaked too. Try spraying Fluid Film on the rubber bushings. It worked for me.I tried WD-40 and other sprays but they would only work for a short time.
I have a 2018 570 with EPS. Can’t complain about anything other than the power steering ligh came on two months after I got it and it never worked. Service told me to trickle charge battery so I installed a small charger and connected when not in use. Still have the light on and error reading and no power steering. Any help?
Any particular reason I'm kinda leaning towards the 450 for the price and since its actually 500 and I've ridden the old 500 and 400 and both seemed more than sufficient.
I haven't yet, bought sleds instead to play during winter. Kind of regretting it, low snow year... but thinking about picking one up still. The prices for powersports this year is a little nutty!
I got mine a week ago love mine done put 60 miles on mine but mine is the base model wish I would have opt for power steering and the touring model but at the time I didn’t think it was worth the extra money but now I wish I would have we really don’t abuse ours just ride around the fields and local trails however I did sink it a mud puddle few days after owning it want do that again got it stuck and don’t own a winch yet and then it took 5 hrs to clean all the mud off lol but I’m really enjoying mine for the money don’t think u can go wrong
Polaris breaks down because the buyer/hater decides to take it put on the first day and beat down on it! If they are taken care of and not butchered then they are a good bike! It all depends on what you plane to use it for. 850 is a lot of power so is the 570, I got the 2019 570 sportsman touring for me and the wife and it's been great, completely bone stock and sunk it twice! With zero issues still have 15 hours until its broke in but I think polaris is a great brand if you dont plan on turning it into a pontoon or drive it off a cliff and expect it to still run! If your planning on thick and deep mud rides then polaris might not be for you, Yamaha or CAN AM or even Honda for that! But if your just backwoods riding or casual trail riding this machine is perfect but that just my opinion.
I can't agree with you more! I am really impressed with my 570 base model, and I have a built TRX 450r for the dunes. 570 is almost as fast in the trails, or even the dunes, but it's almost fast All day! One day I will upgrade, but a 570 is a lot of fun!
I owned two of them, one with eps, one without. The EPS machine was clunky, all sorts of issues. The non EPS actually ran great with no issues. Still, the 570 did nothing for me, they just seem so cheap, terrible battery placement. I've owned a brute force, no comparison, the brute is built so much better.
I have a 2005 Polaris Sportsman 500...Love the "trunk" feature and I get a little miffed about the lights too. Been riding this thing since 2007. It has proven to be a powerful and reliable steed that whole time with the only failure being the starter (recently). Pull rope starter works easily enough for me, though I am 6'3" and 270 lbs. Gonna buy a new Ranger 570 midsize based on my experience with the Sportsman. Always cracks me up when people refer to quads as "bikes" haha.
Yeah man, people make fun of me all the time for saying that I like the trunk. But really, if you're out riding casually and want to bring lunch, a couple beers, and the camera equipment to film a video like this, the only other way would be one of those huge clunky storage boxes on the racks. I'd miss my trunk if I had to switch quads right now... Sweet, I'm looking for a used SXS now too! Do you think 570 is enough torque to make it scoot along loaded with stuff?
@@matt-justice I think it will be fine for my purposes since it's just going to be a workhorse, not a hotrod. That being said, if I could get one with a bigger engine and still the narrow two seater version, I would. It has to fit in the bed of my pickup and in the lightweight toy hauler that I plan to buy next year. I'm pretty handy with mechanical stuff, so if I find the power lacking, I will yank the 570 and swap in an 800 twin. I have no qualms about doing that, hahaha.
@@matt-justice The one I'm looking at is a 2 seater (will fit in the back of my pickup) so it should be a little lighter. That being said, I will probably swap in a Sportsman 1000 engine.
I have a 2017 570 sportsman sp i love it no squeeky handlebars tho but i can have all 3 front lights on or just the 2 bottoms on great atv we are getting another one in april this year
Dennis and Helen we have a 2008 sportsman 400 (450) and it has trouble sometimes shifting from high to reverse. You kinda have to jerk it back and forth once in a while then force it a bit. Just thought I would share.
If your shocks are giving you problems, have you thought about pulling them off and having them rebuilt? If u put it through its paces more then most. You may want to.
Motor wise it's been excellent. I'd say the drivetrain is so-so, but obviously I'm beating on it pretty hard. It's no Honda, but then again a Honda will never keep up with this thing.
Gibbon because I thought the polaris would be decent and it cost much less here in Ontario, but I guess you get what you pay for. Getting a Honda Rancher 420 solid axle next time.

Drill a hole in the steering stem, install a drive in grease fitting and your squeak will be history.

Have had problems with the right side over heating and power steering.
Do get a lot of buzz/vibration from 2500-4000rpm?
Love these types of reviews
I have a 2017 570 and i hate the battery placement down on the bottom of the frame between the front wheels
570 owners, search the internet, if your not scared to snip wires, there is a fix for the headlights that works great!
Casey Campbell I’ve done the 3 light mod on 4 of them...works perfect!
Yep. Did the same. Works great
Back in the day the switch would stay in between the two and stay on!
A dose of Graphite power in your squeaky steering column should do it .
The storage is great! I just wish they wpuld have made the lid a bit more sturdy! I just got a 2019 touring! And love it! Nothing fancy just base model no power sterring or ebs.

Love the machine, we have one and it has been great. We have a 1000 xp also and love it.
I totally agree with the getting stuck part! I don’t know if you can get these stuck 450 or 570
Haha I find I get high centered rather than being stuck
I have one too. Great quad but I wish the frame was stronger for yard work
Definitely one way to put it to the 570!
My 2016 Sportsman 570 still runs great & I have no squeaks on my handlebars.

Great review man, I read your review on clever leverage as well. I'm in the market for a rec/utility. Main purpose is for my wife to start riding the trails with me here in AZ. She wants a SxS but I think a smaller bore 4x4 with eps would save me some money. I've been looking at the 2018 polaris 450 with eps. I know there is only a $500 difference between the 450 and 570 but I'm afraid she may whisky throttle and the quad would flip (thinking less likely on the 450). Do you have any thoughts about the 450? Also looking into can am.
My sportsman 500 squeaked too. Try spraying Fluid Film on the rubber bushings. It worked for me.I tried WD-40 and other sprays but they would only work for a short time.
I have a 2018 570 with EPS. Can’t complain about anything other than the power steering ligh came on two months after I got it and it never worked. Service told me to trickle charge battery so I installed a small charger and connected when not in use. Still have the light on and error reading and no power steering. Any help?
Dom Russo buy a can am
Do you wrench on your polaris bikes? If so how has experience been with it? Thanks
Nice riding and review. Thanks
Did u have to tighten any bolts or retorque once u had the 570 broken in after the first service. 👍
Finbar O’Sullivan I did all kinds of shit broke on mine
Excellent video. Great quality.
I have a brand new 2019 570 soon enough I’ll be getting some 28’s maybe 29’s on it with a new exhaust system and maybe a stereo system :-)
Just looking to see if you have a video of what it sounds like with a different Exhaust system
I have two 2017 570’s and two 450’s I kinda of like my 2 450’s better but I’m happy with both
Any particular reason I'm kinda leaning towards the 450 for the price and since its actually 500 and I've ridden the old 500 and 400 and both seemed more than sufficient.
Great video man! Did you end up purchasing the 1000? I have a 570 at the moment and I love it. Always room for more power though. Safe riding!
I haven't yet, bought sleds instead to play during winter. Kind of regretting it, low snow year... but thinking about picking one up still. The prices for powersports this year is a little nutty!
I got mine a week ago love mine done put 60 miles on mine but mine is the base model wish I would have opt for power steering and the touring model but at the time I didn’t think it was worth the extra money but now I wish I would have we really don’t abuse ours just ride around the fields and local trails however I did sink it a mud puddle few days after owning it want do that again got it stuck and don’t own a winch yet and then it took 5 hrs to clean all the mud off lol but I’m really enjoying mine for the money don’t think u can go wrong
I want to drink a beer with this guy.
Cool intro 👍
What is the purpose of the EBS ? can you over-ride the EBS
Is there any differenses in 2016 and 2019 versions?
I got a 2019 it has a digital interface in the front which is awesome
U have gotten better
Whereabouts in maine do you ride? I just upgraded from an 01 sportsman 500 to an 2018 sportsman 850
Brian Connelly black fly loop, rangely
Nice. My buddies and I have a camp in cornville.
From Maine also , where was you rideing
You in NH?
Great review. Should I buy the 800? All i hear is polaris breaks down.
Polaris breaks down because the buyer/hater decides to take it put on the first day and beat down on it! If they are taken care of and not butchered then they are a good bike! It all depends on what you plane to use it for. 850 is a lot of power so is the 570, I got the 2019 570 sportsman touring for me and the wife and it's been great, completely bone stock and sunk it twice! With zero issues still have 15 hours until its broke in but I think polaris is a great brand if you dont plan on turning it into a pontoon or drive it off a cliff and expect it to still run! If your planning on thick and deep mud rides then polaris might not be for you, Yamaha or CAN AM or even Honda for that! But if your just backwoods riding or casual trail riding this machine is perfect but that just my opinion.
@@bullionbouncer5080 Thanks so much.!
I can't agree with you more! I am really impressed with my 570 base model, and I have a built TRX 450r for the dunes. 570 is almost as fast in the trails, or even the dunes, but it's almost fast All day! One day I will upgrade, but a 570 is a lot of fun!
Pretty impressive this thing can haul coats and candy bars around with them plastic racks.
good info, just bought one!
How's that 570 holding up after 10 months?
I owned two of them, one with eps, one without. The EPS machine was clunky, all sorts of issues. The non EPS actually ran great with no issues. Still, the 570 did nothing for me, they just seem so cheap, terrible battery placement. I've owned a brute force, no comparison, the brute is built so much better.
Well yeah the brute force is like 3 grand more than this.
I have a 570 all my lights come on at the same time . Spray some wd40 silicone on the bushing.
Do you have any over heating issues with the rear getting dirty?
I pulled a 1000lb bull elk with a 2016 570 for about 3kms with no problems 👍
I live in southern Maine. What area were you in during the video
The 570 quad is beat power to weight ratio Polaris made its able to play and work......the other quad I'd recommend is a kawi brute force
I own a 2019 570 efi 2 up best thing i had ever bought
Gos everywhere my farther in laws 2016 cfmoto zforce 800ex
Have you ridden 2 up? Im looking for a utility trail machine that i can put a 2up on occasionally.
My wife and I ride 2 up on our Sportsman 570 all the time and it works just fine
I have the 550, the model that the 570 replaced and mine let’s me turn all three headlights on, I guess that’s new for the 570.
The 550 is infinitely better made than the 570. The only great quality the 570 has is its engine. Everything else is junk and cut corner.
our 570 let's us turn all three headlights on
At what hours does it need service
I have a 2005 Polaris Sportsman 500...Love the "trunk" feature and I get a little miffed about the lights too. Been riding this thing since 2007. It has proven to be a powerful and reliable steed that whole time with the only failure being the starter (recently). Pull rope starter works easily enough for me, though I am 6'3" and 270 lbs. Gonna buy a new Ranger 570 midsize based on my experience with the Sportsman.
Always cracks me up when people refer to quads as "bikes" haha.
Yeah man, people make fun of me all the time for saying that I like the trunk. But really, if you're out riding casually and want to bring lunch, a couple beers, and the camera equipment to film a video like this, the only other way would be one of those huge clunky storage boxes on the racks. I'd miss my trunk if I had to switch quads right now... Sweet, I'm looking for a used SXS now too! Do you think 570 is enough torque to make it scoot along loaded with stuff?
@@matt-justice I think it will be fine for my purposes since it's just going to be a workhorse, not a hotrod. That being said, if I could get one with a bigger engine and still the narrow two seater version, I would. It has to fit in the bed of my pickup and in the lightweight toy hauler that I plan to buy next year. I'm pretty handy with mechanical stuff, so if I find the power lacking, I will yank the 570 and swap in an 800 twin. I have no qualms about doing that, hahaha.
@@matt-justice The one I'm looking at is a 2 seater (will fit in the back of my pickup) so it should be a little lighter. That being said, I will probably swap in a Sportsman 1000 engine.
Does any body know approximately how much fuel the 570 uses? Like How many Kilometers per Liter?
BeeKay i have a 2017 one, mine uses 5 leters every 2-3 hour of use (50-70km average) . It’s not too bad
I have a 2017 570 sportsman sp i love it no squeeky handlebars tho but i can have all 3 front lights on or just the 2 bottoms on great atv we are getting another one in april this year
Just seen this post. I have the identical machine you have. Does yours shift hard from forward to reverse? Mine does and I plow with mine.
Dennis and Helen we have a 2008 sportsman 400 (450) and it has trouble sometimes shifting from high to reverse. You kinda have to jerk it back and forth once in a while then force it a bit. Just thought I would share.
Dennis and Helen really late reply but if yours is shifting hard hold the break really soft while shifting and it should shift easier
If your shocks are giving you problems, have you thought about pulling them off and having them rebuilt? If u put it through its paces more then most. You may want to.
Do a review on the spot 1000 or the outlander 570
How is the quality of the 570?
Motor wise it's been excellent. I'd say the drivetrain is so-so, but obviously I'm beating on it pretty hard. It's no Honda, but then again a Honda will never keep up with this thing.
I love it, but, does this have electronic thumb shift?
Damn you paid $6500 out the door?? Where there some crazy incentives at the time or what? Can you negotiate a bunch off the MSRP on these?
Its like 7000 msrp
the 570 is a great motor - !
My 2016 sportsman 570sp has the capability to have all lights on at the same time.
You can buy a jumper wire to run all 3 lights at once on amazon,about $14.
What an awesome place to ride!
I'd like to see it vs a grizzly 550
Kyle King actually you would need to compare it to the 700 grizzly it’s only 4 hp shy of the 700. The 500 would not be a fair comparison
1 year and only 500 miles?! Barely broken in. 500 miles is like a good long weekend of riding.
I know right iv had mine for a month and I have 134 miles
I WANT ONE OF THESE.
i love the bike but i fell in 4 ft of mud first day :p no bs.. Good thing i had a winch
Is this better than the 570 can am ?
andy original yes much better but a Honda is better still
Micheal Gray at what being slow as a 110
So what am I slow I will wip any canned ham in the mud
The only place a canned ham is better is on the drag or in skeg
Wow is every thing still stock
Adam Does things yes
I just don't like how it's all plastic, can you even use them for heavy stuff
Trevor 803 no my broke with 2 bags of seed lol
I call them the Polaris plastic
ya like if you hit something I bet it'll just crack all to hell or god forbid you flip it 😂
Ya, all the plastic is really the only bad thing I can think of with Polaris.
Blake’s Services i guess you’ve never thought about reliability 🤦♂️
I hated my 2014 Sportsman 570EFI everything was noisy and it felt really poor quality, gave me problems with stalling in reverse and burning my leg.
Gibbon because I thought the polaris would be decent and it cost much less here in Ontario, but I guess you get what you pay for. Getting a Honda Rancher 420 solid axle next time.
