That limp mode, check the inside of your air filter too! I fought with it and didn’t think of normal stuff and turned out the actual mesh inside the filter had let go
hey bud awesome vids but I have a highlifter 1000 aswell it's the 2018 which I don't think makes a difference but I wanted to try bkts like u and just wondering if there is anything you have to say about them after riding them a few times... how do they stack up to outlaws
Blake westbrook bkts are great but alot different ridding then outlaws. My big turning point was weight. My 33 bkt 171 are lighter than the outlaws that came on it. Bkts are tractor tires so they dig pretty good and ride good as well. Personally bkts over outlaw 2s anyday.
Blake westbrook well one you put on after market wheels it pushes eveything out enough so where you want hit the snorkle duct. The fender is the only thing that needs trimming.
hey bud i'm going to buy a new 850 hl or 1000 hl today jw what did you give for yours? i'm getting quoted 14,850 otd tax an all and i see where people are getting them for 12,500 ish
Thanks for sharing👍🏻 How did you go about cutting the plastic on the radiator cover or whatever for the snorkels..? Love the wheels! I’m running the wheels it came with but took 3psi out of them for a much smoother ride cause l find the shocks really stiff, but that’s because it’s built for the mud. Thinking l should of bit the bullet and bought the 1000 cause l sure do miss the power steering! Again thanks for sharing and keep the videos coming🍻
I think mine were at 8psi and dropped it to 5psi. Those tires you have on must hold more air or something? Or maybe I’m wrong. I think l need to add another psi or two so l don’t wear my treads out as fast. And yeah really nothing to it when doing the cutting eh. Thanks.
Mad Mudder I'm running like 13 lbs in the bkts. They measure out to be like 34 1/4. I ran more because the bike is so damn heavy. But they still ride good to have so much air.
kennorthstar1 Man tbh the shocks are fine. They were specifically made for the Highlifter edition. They are not made to have much travel. Granted if you have 1500 to blow elkas are fine. These shocks are made to not sag when in ruts.
Auldon Reeves ya your right. Just seems even crawling around hitting the odd bump it bottoms out hard making it a rough ride. Turned up the shock adjuster to see if it would make more difference other that the little lift and still rides rough
kennorthstar1 they really domt bottom out as much as you think. My shocks are turned up 3 clicks in the front and two in the back. It takes alot of force to bottom them out. Now if you jumping things or what not stock ones ain't for you. Granted with a mud bike the ride really isn't what your looking for. Ya know?
Auldon Reeves no lol no jumping it or hard trail riding at all. I’m 3 in the back and 2 in the front. Looking for another opinion on a smoother rider. Thanks for the info bro!
kennorthstar1 try scrambler shocks if you want more travel the highlifter shocks only have about 2 inches of travel vs the 6 inches of travel the scrambler has. Although unless you are running a 2 inch lift I wouldn’t recommend the scrambler shock for the simple fact of some serious rubbing
Hey do you know a website where I can get brush guards for the front and rear and I’m looking for a winch for my 2019 Polaris sportsman high lifter 850?
If you're looking for the polaris ones like the ones on the 1000 you can order them through polaris or a polaris dealer. I just got the orange front bumper for my '19 850 highlifter.
Yea you just have to take one little grill insert out on the front for the lower attachment. You will also need the bolts but you can pull part numbers from the 2019 1000 highlifter OEM schematics. You can also just look at the description and match the bolts at a hardware store they are not super unique.
I have a 570 it’s been fantastic 8k miles

I have a 2018 highlifter 1000, what do I have to do to fit 31’s on the rear besides a 2” lift?

Auldon Reeves besides the fenders was there any other rubbing on like to snorkel duct in the front or anything
Blake westbrook well one you put on after market wheels it pushes eveything out enough so where you want hit the snorkle duct. The fender is the only thing that needs trimming.
Auldon Reeves thanks bud I appreciate the help what would u say the ground clearance is to the hitch on the back and to the front? last question lol
for mud nothing is beating the outlaws FACTS
Have you had any problem with the front diff or axles popping..I’m waiting for my 2017 to get here just bought one used low miles
Yo tengo problemas porque cuando hacerlo nomás llega asta 80 millas y no quiere subir y me prende la luz de el volante y del motor

how is it now? Give us an update!!!!!
Dang! I’m supposed to order a 2021 850 Highlifter this Saturday! I don’t know if I want that now or not!! That’s not very reliable!!!
How often do you ride and do you have a 2
Inch lift
Nice bike!! I'm going to buy a 2017 scrambler 1000 what's your thoughts?
You had issues with the other bearings wait til those no ballz ( junk) go to crap on you while you're riding, good luck.
Thanks for sharing👍🏻

Mad Mudder I ran about 10 psi because I kept blow the bead off them. I just used a grinder chopped it off then went over it with a dremel tool.
I think mine were at 8psi and dropped it to 5psi. Those tires you have on must hold more air or something? Or maybe I’m wrong. I think l need to add another psi or two so l don’t wear my treads out as fast. And yeah really nothing to it when doing the cutting eh. Thanks.

I’m gonna have to recheck mine before l go out again. Tire pressure makes a big difference
Where did u get your snorkle risors?
I got the 850 but where did u buy that exhaust at
Outkast fabworkx probably makes the ranger lift
i have a 2017 850 and was wondering if that winch grill will fit without any modifications?
George evans jr should fit fine basically same chassis
What are your thoughts on the stock shocks?? I’m thinking of getting Elkas. The stock ones don’t have much travel and bottom out
kennorthstar1 Man tbh the shocks are fine. They were specifically made for the Highlifter edition. They are not made to have much travel. Granted if you have 1500 to blow elkas are fine. These shocks are made to not sag when in ruts.

And that one bolted right on? No modifications

Were did you get those light bars from
Chase Bossett they look sick! I’m sure you can find some and just adjust them.
Look on eBay I got one
Umm
.
Way to many issues with these Highlifters lol
James Boyd yea but put it in this prospective. Name one ATV company on the market today thats doing it better than Polaris.
Can am?
