My 2022 Sportsman 570 has been utterly reliable and problem free. I also have the smaller 300 model from 2015. We also have a 2015 Ranger Diesel and a 2023 XP 1000. Big fans of Polaris here!
Storage box hack Install storage box on back of atv run vents into storage box and seal the whole that the vent comes into the box all dry air in the box!
Ive come to notice through reviews that Polaris riders are more composed and less high-maintenance/demanding than the Brand-racists out there. I am Quad shopping and really like the 570, all problems are well documented so its easy to deal with eh. Yes they are worth it 👍👍happy trails.
what fuel pack is that on the back? i cant find this type of jerry can and mount for my 22 trail. and how are thoes added lights from harbor? have you considered others?
@@RC.56 the water pack on the back is a rotopax and I found a ladder mount on Amazon that worked. The harbor freight lights are great, I used them because they are a bit better than cheap lights on Amazon but cheaper than other name brand lights. I’m at 2 years with these machines now so I should do a follow up and include some night riding while I’m at it.
@@RC.56 I secured it to the rack extender, I was able to find the item on Amazon. It's a small business out of Colorado (I think). www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08BWD1R41
Honestly I would have thought the same as well. It’s just the McPherson front end is a little stiffer and has a lot less nose dive in the corners. The a-arm front end actually bottoms out much quicker and is more plush. In corners it also tends to nose dive quite a bit. There is absolutely no bump steer with the a-arms, I think besides ground clearance that is the best part of it.
Sure did, here's the link to it (warning, it was during my "finding myself" phase of making videos...). I also included the link to the grip warmers in case you're interested. th-cam.com/video/YuKF2Gk3SrA/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/aEdN230lSII/w-d-xo.html
Polaris gets a bad rap, but probably because they sell the most machines, thus, get the most feedback. They definitly have the plushest ride of all the quads out there, so you gotta expect the front to dive a bit during braking and cornering. Just be prepared and expect it. That piano black plastic is the worst idea for a quad. Thats gunna look like shit very soon, showing every scratch. You didn't comment on how one quad had LED lights and the other had Halogen. Curious what you think of them without the aftermarket LED light pods and light bars you got installed. I don't know why Polaris removed the rear storage compartment from the older model, the space is there, it couldn't have cost much if anything to keep it.
I think I mentioned the lights in previous videos, I like the LED factory lights but not really a big difference in how they actually work. The missing storage bad under the seat is because I’m in California. For these quads they actually have evap canisters in that spot so the storage bad won’t fit. Agree on the ride, in my opinion, the most comfortable ride on the market, been that way for years.
I would call that well broke in 😆 honestly though we don’t get out nearly as much as we would like due to our busy schedules this past year. I’m hoping that will change here pretty soon. I would think the kind of miles and hours would be more important than how many, and the biggest factor would be how well it was maintained. I think the hours/miles on my quads… atvs… 4-wheelers (I don’t know where you’re from) is well below the average. Best advice I can give is when you get it home do a full service (engine oil and filter, transmission fluid, and front drive fluid). You’ll have to let us know how it works out, and enjoy!
Just this week i bought a 2024 sportsman 570 hunt edition… been so cold here in Pennsylvania, I haven’t even drove it yet. I hope it works well for me.
I’m betting that you will love it. Congratulations on the new quad… ATV… 4-wheeler… whatever you call it there in PA (my wife is from Pittsburgh, glad to meet ya!)
Unfortunately that was one of my first videos and I had forgotten to turn on (or plug in) a microphone. And, maybe forgot to record some steps as well. Live and learn... Thanks for the comment and for watching!
My brother just bought the 2024 570 sportsman automatic. In high gear the cvt doesn't hold back at all when going down a hill. Is that normal? Does it have to be in low? My 450 Kodiak creeps in high, no matter how steep the hill.
The engine braking isn’t too aggressive, only in ADC mode will it hold back, and it does have to be in low gear with the 4wd and ADC both turned on. The normal engine braking will slow it down a little, but the ADC can be quite aggressive
That’s tuff. The can am will have more power for sure, but you can’t beat the ride quality of a Polaris (that’s my opinion). I think you sit on them both, see what you the feel of better. I really don’t think you can go wrong either way.
@@goodjerm thanks for the honest and fast response I will try the polaris, to see if catch me. I've already testes the can am 700 max and it was amazing
I put an extreme air vent on my clutch exhaust. It was a little pricey about 40$ Canadian Ive had it in water over the tires and no issues so far it like frog skinz
Well that is a good question. I found this RotopaX mount on Amazon. I then replace the bolts that came with it with stainless steel bolts (the originals broke). It looks like the price has gone up, but here's the link to it anyway... www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08BWD1R41/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Excellent video. Nice to see the comparison between the new suspension and the macpherson. I got a 2023 with the macpherson strut suspension. I’m really happy with it. 1700km in 5 weeks on it.
Now that is a lot of riding my friend! Congrats on the new machine. I’m trying to plan a trip to Death Valley before the year is out, that will really showcase the suspension on these rigs. Thanks for watching and for the comments!
You are lucky to find a ride command version, that’s what I wanted too but Polaris had stopped production of those last year due to “parts shortages” according to the dealer anyway. Enjoy! 😉
So what do you do when your coming down a steep grade and you use low 4x4 and it lets go of all your traction in to a power slide! Out of control. I now use high gear and feather the throttle to stop the power slide. But what else can you do? IM riding an 04 500 ho.
Without descent control that’s exactly what you have to do. On those older quads I keep just enough throttle to keep the clutch engaged along with the brakes.
@@goodjerm it took. Me by surprise the first time on shale rock going down steep grade. Lucky I didn’t get hurt but wow what a ride. I’m experienced dirt biker and I had the luck to ride it out.
Thanks for the video review after a year. It is good to see a good report.

Very thorough description of the machine and its qualities, helps a lot, thank you! (just bought one but don't have it yet)

Thanks for the link. is that a 1 gallon? Have you played with other sizes?
@@RC.56 that is a 1 gallon. For what I use it for it’s plenty. I do have a 2 gallon as well but don’t really use it.
Nice machines, kinda surprised to hear you say the McPherson struts equipped one felt sportier, woulda thought the opposite.

What storage box do you have on the back of your quad?
I have the Polaris Cargo Box part number 2884853

Just about to buy a used 23 trail. 1100mi and 95hrs. Seems like a lot. You’ve had yours for 1yr and only 35hrs? Jeez. Is this normal? First atv
