I was looking to purchase a 500 class machine when this video came out. I am a long time Honda owner. I test drove this machine & a Honda Rubicon IRS EPS. The Polaris had a better ride quality, better power & was around $500 cheaper. I decided to give the Polaris a shot. I am 4 months into owning the Polaris 570 SP. It immediately began to not start correctly. I would turn the key & it would click like a dead battery or bad solenoid. Turn the key again, It might fire right up or it might not. After I had to walk home once I got more serious about getting this fixed. 4 months later the dealer has replaced battery, solenoid, key switch, break switch, starter and now the voltage regulator...possibly the power steering unit next. They have had the bike 1 month of my 4 month ownership. I really like this ATV when it is running. But, it is not dependable. I called the Polaris customer service line about maybe getting the bike replaced or declared a lemon. They told me I would have to work that out with the dealership & that Polaris does not have a buy back or compensation program. The dealer is not the problem they are doing everything they can to help. Poor Polaris quality and poor customer service is why I chose to write this.
Recently I rode with my brother, he has a 2016 570 and I ride a 2017 850 and we were riding in hell’s canyon Idaho and I’m impressed, he went every where I went (maybe a little slower) and seemed to burn about 1/2 as much fuel. The 570 is no joke in my book
just bought the 570SP in red a couple moths ago and i love it. just put some 26" Sedona rip saw tires and MSA wheels on it. planning my second trip to the West Virginia Hatfield and McCoy trails next month.
sorry to be offtopic but does anybody know a method to get back into an instagram account?? I was stupid forgot the account password. I would appreciate any help you can give me.
@Damari Harrison thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site on google and Im trying it out atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Nice review. I just picked up a used utility model and couldn't be happier. All i do with mine is haul firewood from my land and barely go over 10 mph.
I have the 570sp touring model. Great bike. I've used maybe a hand full of times. The power is insane for 2 people on this. I'm 200#,s my wife is 120#s works great for us. Great low end power and torque!
I bought a polaris 570 last year thought it was really nice rides like a Cadillac. My girl loved it so I gifted it to her. And then I bought the 2019 suzuki king quad 750 axi for myself. Shifting is my much smoother and getting on the throttle is smoother on the take off as compared to polaris jerky take off... both are nice machines both have theyre pluses and minuses. Anyone who is buying an ATV for the first time your going to love it and the freedom of getting away or as I call it disconnecting from life and getting your head clear... good luck to all and god bless....
I just sold a base model sportsman 570, (no power steering). It was a blast to ride, not one problem. I have a 570 EPS, it had a throttle body issue, but it was a small thing. They did have a recall on some of the EPS motors, I had mine replaced, it was free with no issues. I agree with some of the statements, battery placement sucks. The engine breaking is aggressive, but I've adjusted. The ride itself is great, the power steering is awesome, and I love the ground clearance. Other features I like is the storage and the AWD. I know that some don't care for the AWD drive on Polaris, but it works great for me. I will admit I baby my quads, I think many riders have issues because they try to turn their ATV's into submarines, or they don't take care of them, they later blame the company. I've owned Kawasaki, ridden Honda, Yamaha and Kymco. I will agree, Kawasaki make fantastic quads, but the 570 isn't a bad ride, just take care of it!

Meh fuck polaris I'm sorry, I'm a can am the sportsman lineup is kind sad, the guy at the dealer flat out told me not to buy a polaris and get a can am or honda I opted for can am because I like power I ended up with a 570 DPS and It handles better then this polaris for sure.
The Outlanders look very nice, but they're a little tippy and less plush. Depending on the model a Halo locker is a necessary upgrade for aggressive riders. The AWD drive system from Polaris is hard to beat once the components are beefed up.
"who really likes a 570?" The 570 is polaris' best selling model because of the price and performance factors. Your getting a good value. So really everyone loves the 570, it's fun to ride as long as it holds up. One thing people need to do is fully inspect there bike when they get it. Watch fluids for metals and dirt or water before you have a failure. Polaris is having problems because there rushing production and R&D trying to stay ahead of the game. But Polaris needs to refine there vehicles, you guys don't need to be king in the power wars. If you'd focus on refinement for reliability and end up with a reputation like Honda or Yamaha, then you'd be king. Value, ease of use, reliability, features, and decent power (reliable power) is what will crown you king in the off-road market. Please Polaris step back and improve your design, we all love your vehicles but we would love them more if they were stronger and last longer like a Honda. My 17' 570 is my work and play toy, I love it but I have doubts it's going to last me 20 years in which case my next will be a Honda so I'm at ease the $8000 I just spent won't die on me 100 miles from home. Please focus on reliability, your loosing your way...
Oh and make the ADC standard on ALL MODELS make it part of AWD, your going to get someone killed!!! You put it in 4wd and go down hill trying to engine brake and have a nice controlled decent but the rear tires lockup and try to come around you. If I want to do a rear drag I'll do it with the brakes. I want AWD 'on demand' which includes descending down in AWD without sliding down the hill uncontrolled unless I hit the brakes which further locks up the rear tires. Inexperienced people are going to slide and flip, you need to let the operator have more control of 2/4wd and when they want it
Oh and my 570 is the utility edition, the 570 version comes factory with Kenda bearclaws, talk about a great tire stock. Worth the extra money and the high range is geared lower which feels faster then the normal 570 and SP version. Dirt trax really needs to show the utility, very little know of its existence and how awesome of a setup it truly is
Brad At Tittle Diesel Performance My uncle had a rzr 570 with lot of problems, and changed it for a brand new ranger 570 last year and still get engine problems with it in cold weather. I also had a lot of engine problems with my scrambler 500 when the weather dropped under 10 degre C. We also had problems with a couple other polaris we had on the farm. Don't get me wrong, we did love the riding these get you, but damn they are not reliable, especially for us in canada in the cold. As you said, they should start to focus on reliability if they want to be "king". But my patience had it's limit and i switched for can-am 2years ago and i now understand why people pay a bit more for them.
Jean, you'd think that Polaris would build an atv that would be reliable in cold weather. Considering they are from Minnesota. Granted it's not Canada, but it's not Florida either.
Nice video - many call it an entry level ATV- less expensive than a Honda but every inch a workhorse and can go where a larger more expensive ATV can go - keep up the good work and AJ - you have a solid ATV under you
Stella Inverso I have 2006 browning edition 500 Polaris sportsman, it has 11,765 miles on it. No problems, just replaced tires and done oil changes and replaced 4 belts. The belts didn’t blow up just replaced them, when I fully service it. Don’t know about the new ones tho ? My old ones reliable asf. I just bought a new Can-am outlander 570, because the engines more powerful than Polaris and it makes 4 more horse, it’s also a twin engine.
Stella Inverso is you want pure power, and a more reliable quad get the Can-am 570. If you’re just a trail rider, and want to be comfortable when riding, than buy the Polaris. Also note Polaris has incredible four wheel drive. Hard to beat a Rotax engine, with all that Austrian engineering that’s put into it. Can-am puts a 570 cc Rotax engine, that makes 48 horse power, and it’s a twin. Rotax engines are beyond reliable, and have insane horse power. Prostar engines that Polaris uses are good, but their not as reliable or as powerful, but still a respectable engine.
Stella Inverso I have a lot of information, and experiences with quads/ four wheelers. Any questions you have I can answer you, it’s also important you tell me your ride style. That way I can recommend the proper four wheeler, that will suit your needs 💯
dont know about newer models but sure read alot of good and bad comments. Bought a new 400 sportsman in 2003. It was the only sportsman model without ebs, which is why I bought it. I sold it 2 years ago for 3500 bucks and regretted it. Best atv I ever owned. Drove circles around friends foreman and always started fine even in below zero weather. Drove year round and plowed in winter. Only part I ever broke was 1 shifter rod when I buried it trying to p,low thru a drift with plow and was slamming shifter back and forth. It was last year of h-pattern. Fuji hd engine. Maybe polaris has gone down hill since. Im now looking for a 4x4 auto for the wife and Im actually trying to find another low mile pre 04 model. I currently ride my trusty honda trx300ex. just replaced chain and both sprockets...so yes, even hondas need parts too.
I have a 2015 base model 570 and I love it. It's light, nimble and surprising power for it not being an 800 or 1k. The price is what really sells it imo, I got it from my local dealer for 6k out the door, now for the sp price, you should just go ahead buy a 850 in imo, unless you are new to trail riding. My only gripe is the battery location, it is exposed to everything you ride over on the trail or in the water.
I bought a 2019 570 SP Sportsman today. It's beautiful in metallic grey with black graphics. But not too glitzy like a Can Am 570 Max XT in intense red like I was going to buy and the dealer had ready to deliver to me today. I instantly knew when I walked up to it it that I was NOT going to buy it. That machine is nice, way too expensive, and too "glamorous" imho for what we buy these thing for. It's like taking your shiny new Cadillac through mud bogs. If you want garage art, buy the Can Am. The Polaris checked all the boxes. Powerful, power steering, 4 x 4 switch with descent control or not if you wish, awesome display with tons of info and selectable red or blue gauges (the Can Am display is tiny, hard to see without glasses for us older folks, and rather dull to look at with black lettering and a grey background). The Polaris gauge display is a work of art, The 570 has a utilitarian, very tough look about it that I was after, and the price just was too good to be beat. There's a reason why Polaris outsells Can Am 5 to 1. Does the Can Am have some advantages? Sure. But not enough to justify the inflated price while assembled in Mexico to maximize their corporate profits. I know Polaris has operations in Mexico too but I believe the machine is made here. When I saw the Made in Mexico sticker on the Can Am I was taken aback. It's a matter of principle. I could not find a tag on where the Polaris was assembled. I'm pretty sure it's in the USA. Anyway, choice made. 5 year warranty $699. WIN!
I have a Honda 420 Rancher footshift camo edition spot of mud under the wheel well lcd screen and this offends me. No, but seriously. I do have a Honda 420 Rancher Footshift, and I love it. I go in as deep mud and over big rocks and tall hills, and i have never needed more power. I tow tree cuts around my backyard as well to get my dad's truck out. I never felt like I have less power or that i needed more. It is very quick "off the line" and has been through so much abuse, a Canned Ham or any other 4 wheeler, I just dont see making through what my Honda has gone through. It literally ran on diesel for like 20 minutes before i realized i PUT disel in there. I dumped the tank, put ACTUAL gas in there, and ran it some to burn out the diesel. Works fine now.
Do you have any reviews on the 2021 models?? I've been watching reviews videos and alot of them were saying they are junk. Paint chipping off, moisture in the instrument pod.
I own one. If I had it to do over again I would buy a different brand. Keep in mind, nothing is actually covered on the warrantee. The starter switch broke 3 months after I bought it... Not covered: $329 to fix. The winch switch broke after that $179... not covered. The cable on the winch has been replaced 3 times because the plow they sell is designed so the hook on the winch bumps the rollers on its way up and eventually the cable snaps. Also, the battery is mounted right on the frame in the middle with the coolant reservoir right out in the open for dirt, water, and rocks to get all over everything. It's cheap, low quality, plastic, and it's engineered poorly. Go buy a different brand.
I wish I could review all new a shiny bikes.. How about a long duration testing and let the bikes get like 2500 + miles of riding and then come back with a review.. EVERYTHING NEW IS NICE OR IT WOULDN'T BE NEW!!
I hear the Polaris part are much higher then other manufacture's parts and the life of them are not that long. I'm getting ready to buy a ATV and it will be between the 570 and the Kawasaki Brute Force 750 4x4i. I want something that will last for years and that is reliable.
More *** HIPE ***. It is a good machine if you're into the fix-it mode. Yes, they run well if you spend a few thousand at a dealership every year. You don't get much fixing for over $100.00 per hour. I find buying a new $180.00 battery every 2 years helps a lot with the starting.
I just bought a used 2015 570 EPS and did some plowing about 3 weeks ago, works awesome! I use to have a 2000 450 Foreman, now that was rough and the steering was so difficult.
Its too aggressive for slow riding, but ive found that when you are riding trails quickly, or hauling a trailer its quite good... but I do agree, its pretty jarring at slower speeds
I bought one. I was driving it for 4 months and then the cvt broke... some components just stop working. I have the pics pf it. I live in Peru, was driving it on the mountains and it just lost all power. The engine was working but the transmission just broke, the guarantee is working but i was expecting better quality. Oh they tried to avoid apply the guarantee, not the house here in Peru, polaris US. It is not a bad ATV but definitely is not as hard as it claim it is.
I thank you for the review if it was your money would you take 570s or the Can-Am comparable. My research indicates the Polaris is just not that reliable and there are recalls is this true?
I have Polaris 06 500 Honda Rancher 420 Dct Eps Irs she is beast love thumb shift I am fan of foot shift after I get my Polaris fixt letting my nephew and neice have it
When they work they are great, bad thing they are not durable. Cheap under powered battery, front differential input bearing, even plates inside the muffler came loose in the first year, under 900 miles
Does all nelt driven bikes make that lil click nosie when u slow down for a second then give it gas again or is anyone else polaris bike make lil nosie in suspension when over bumps
Ok the 450 has the same engine as the 570 if you look at The sticker on the back of the engine or if the company you bought it from just told you. They both have the same engine 500 cc
But my uncle owns one and it's a 2014 570 and I go to his house almost every weekend and he also has a 2005-2006 Polaris 500 and he's done more work on the 570 then he has on the 500 and it's mainly electric issues
Price tag for the " SP" its outrageous in my opinion. However i bought my 2016 570 for 4600 bucks out the door. Base model no power steer, you get the idea. I think SP stands for " Special Price". Yea i know they got all the extra gizmos but a new 570 for 4600 bucks at Abernathies Polaris in Union City TN was a deal hard to pass up.
Honestly the base is a great quad but if in the budget a 570 with the sp front suspension is the best of both worlds a smaller bore with a better ride also a lighter bike.
You don't have to take my word for it......call them and ask what a base model cost with no power steer or engine braking. Abernathies in Union City TN is well known to be one of the....if not THE....cheapest places to buy polaris in the USA. I also didn't pay sales tax because I was out of state buyer which kept the price down as well. I just checked and their website is showing MSRP instead of what they actually sell for. In 2016 they advertised the actual cash price and i bought a Orange 570 for 4600 bucks out the door. Drove 400 mile round trip to get it.
I rolled the dice and bought my first utility quad. I am used to race quads and dirt bikes but where I’m from in the winter you can do it all with a 4x4. Anyway went into it blind and thought I got a good deal on a quad which was a 1996 Polaris sportsman 500. When I got it I went through the fluids and did the brakes and road it had had a good time every weekend for months. Then literally everything started breaking. Parts are impossible to find and very expensive mainly because it’s old which I understand. But shit dude I will never EVER buy a used ATV again in my life. The money I’ve spent in one year could have gone towards 3 years of payments towards a new quad. And I’m in a clan because nobody will buy a broken quad so all you can do is suck it up fix it properly and then hopefully sell it. Like I said though never again used. But sure I’d buy a Polaris again but next time it will be a RZR
570 underpowered? LOL I drive around a Polaris Magnum 325 2x4 and it hauls my 205 lbs ass just fine for going fishing and fooling around. Of course it's a little gutless but it all depends on what you're using it for. I do plan on getting a 570 or possibly a Rubicon 520
OK Dirt Trax Please do something good by now testing out a Can Am 570XP. Disregard the price point and make a bit of a comparison with the Polaris 570. Look carefully at build quality and the smart useful features of one over the other. Give us a good helpful tip on which way to spend our hard earned money that will last us for years to come. Even talk a little about Yamaha or Honda in comparison to Polaris or Can Am!!!!
Polaris is actually stupid. The battery is still on the skid plate next to the drive shafts for all the water and mud to get on. They lookngood, ride giod, and are fast but polaris needs to work on things like that and reliability. I've seen it first hand with there problems
You guys should start reviewing "older" bikes, I think it would make for a great series! For a start, the BRP DS650X! There is basically nothing even remotely related to this bike anywhere, apart from the odd forum which died back in 2009 :(
Yup nice bike for about 500k then your gonna be at the parts department every time you take it out absolutely would never buy another Polaris after having a number of them
I am a tried and true red white and blue Honda fan.Mint:1986 Honda ATC 250sx among other,s in the past. If Honda would step up there game a build something with more ball,s in the power Dept. Then consider me a buyer instead I went with a 2018 Yamaha Grizzly 700 and absolutely Love it. Has plenty of everything won more ATV shootout,s than all the other,s can there ultramatic CVT drive system really be beat?? I will still be blazing trail,s when you guy,s are broke down and looking for answer,s?? 😫😣.
Loved my Honda 300 back in the day and would love to buy a new Honda, but my friends would leave me in the dust so I am looking at other brands. The Grizzly 700 is on top of the list.
THE PICKLETON17 I bought the 570 limited edition pearl black in the summer of 2016, was great for the first month until the problems started. Rear stabilizer link snapped while on a rocky part of a trail, the front diff seal started leaking at 120k so I got that fixed, broke the first axel at 200k warranty covered this. Broke the second at 300k warranty would not cover it. Took the bike in they said the front diff was shot cost me 800 bucks to get it fixed. By the winter the bike wouldn’t start on colder days Polaris got the worst batteries on the market and the worst starters my uncles brand new rzr 900 has been in the shop 6 times due to started and computer issues and it’s 4 months old. By the time fall 2017 rolled around I was on my 7th axel I got fed up polaris customer service is complete shit I paid 12 for the bike here in Canada and got 6600 for it a year and a half later. This is an honest experience Polaris sickens me.
sure its good looking and a Test Drive is a Test Drive ! wait till you own one and use it for a week ! bought a New 2018 on 11/22/17 Hunter Edition , 1 week later bike started acting up, melted brake lens to no power steering to low Voltage , lights go out and gets Hot, 50 hours of shop time on a New Machine to Polaris stumbling on Fix's ! Wrong information loaded on bikes Computer on and on and on Guys,,,,,,,, its like dating a good looking women and she has no JOB !
Most worthless racks I've ever seen. I use mine as a farm tool. My 2001 Polaris Sportsman is a workhorse. Loved those flat, plastic, indestructible racks with anchor points everywhere. New ones appear worthless for work and feel fragile. User reports confirm it. These are trail toys now... not tools. Sorry, Polaris...as much as I loved my 2001, I can't spend my money on a machine that seems to have the word "workhorse" intentionally designed out of it.
Dirt Trax Television i'm a bit surprised you dont know that sp also stands for new close ratio awd system you didn't mention here at all. This close ratio is the biggest and the best difference to non sp models in my oppinion. -> ua-cam.com/video/izbU6nxQbVU/v-deo.html

Bought a 570 today
Good for you.
How's the reliability?
I've always wanted one, but heard horror stories.
Stella Inverso I have 2006 browning edition 500 Polaris sportsman, it has 11,765 miles on it. No problems, just replaced tires and done oil changes and replaced 4 belts. The belts didn’t blow up just replaced them, when I fully service it. Don’t know about the new ones tho ? My old ones reliable asf. I just bought a new Can-am outlander 570, because the engines more powerful than Polaris and it makes 4 more horse, it’s also a twin engine.
Stella Inverso is you want pure power, and a more reliable quad get the Can-am 570. If you’re just a trail rider, and want to be comfortable when riding, than buy the Polaris. Also note Polaris has incredible four wheel drive. Hard to beat a Rotax engine, with all that Austrian engineering that’s put into it. Can-am puts a 570 cc Rotax engine, that makes 48 horse power, and it’s a twin. Rotax engines are beyond reliable, and have insane horse power. Prostar engines that Polaris uses are good, but their not as reliable or as powerful, but still a respectable engine.
Stella Inverso I have a lot of information, and experiences with quads/ four wheelers. Any questions you have I can answer you, it’s also important you tell me your ride style. That way I can recommend the proper four wheeler, that will suit your needs 💯
dont know about newer models but sure read alot of good and bad comments. Bought a new 400 sportsman in 2003. It was the only sportsman model without ebs, which is why I bought it. I sold it 2 years ago for 3500 bucks and regretted it. Best atv I ever owned. Drove circles around friends foreman and always started fine even in below zero weather. Drove year round and plowed in winter. Only part I ever broke was 1 shifter rod when I buried it trying to p,low thru a drift with plow and was slamming shifter back and forth. It was last year of h-pattern. Fuji hd engine. Maybe polaris has gone down hill since. Im now looking for a 4x4 auto for the wife and Im actually trying to find another low mile pre 04 model. I currently ride my trusty honda trx300ex. just replaced chain and both sprockets...so yes, even hondas need parts too.
I have a 2015 base model 570 and I love it. It's light, nimble and surprising power for it not being an 800 or 1k. The price is what really sells it imo, I got it from my local dealer for 6k out the door, now for the sp price, you should just go ahead buy a 850 in imo, unless you are new to trail riding. My only gripe is the battery location, it is exposed to everything you ride over on the trail or in the water.
Just got that same atv yesterday and i love it amazing atv had a canam 850 b4 and 570 sp is awsome
any particular reason for getting rid of the 850
I have a ranger with the 570, very impressive little engine.
Does it have clutch?
@@cartersmith361 automatic
@@freedomisntfree_44 thank you
@ 3:45 "180 up front and 90 in the back" haha. I had to go back and listen again.
Neil Bergstedt got him
Yeah, I’m just gonna hope he meant 180 in the rear and 90 in the front. 😂
I bought a 2019 570 SP Sportsman today. It's beautiful in metallic grey with black graphics. But not too glitzy like a Can Am 570 Max XT in intense red like I was going to buy and the dealer had ready to deliver to me today. I instantly knew when I walked up to it it that I was NOT going to buy it. That machine is nice, way too expensive, and too "glamorous" imho for what we buy these thing for. It's like taking your shiny new Cadillac through mud bogs. If you want garage art, buy the Can Am. The Polaris checked all the boxes. Powerful, power steering, 4 x 4 switch with descent control or not if you wish, awesome display with tons of info and selectable red or blue gauges (the Can Am display is tiny, hard to see without glasses for us older folks, and rather dull to look at with black lettering and a grey background). The Polaris gauge display is a work of art, The 570 has a utilitarian, very tough look about it that I was after, and the price just was too good to be beat. There's a reason why Polaris outsells Can Am 5 to 1. Does the Can Am have some advantages? Sure. But not enough to justify the inflated price while assembled in Mexico to maximize their corporate profits. I know Polaris has operations in Mexico too but I believe the machine is made here. When I saw the Made in Mexico sticker on the Can Am I was taken aback. It's a matter of principle. I could not find a tag on where the Polaris was assembled. I'm pretty sure it's in the USA. Anyway, choice made. 5 year warranty $699. WIN!
You convinced me. I'm gonna test drive that 570 and save myself about 8-10k (yes, they're expensive here..) to the 1000ccm. :)
I have one for less than a year. It is just to drive slow and do not try to play hard with it. That thing break easy.
you forgot to mention it's "hidden feature" comes standard in most models. you can have a nice camp fire with it.
Lmao nice one
Did it catch on fire???? How?
Have both. And I prefer the 570
Bought a 2020 Sportsman 570 Premium in Orange Rust last week!
Do You recommend it?
i went from a honda 250 to a chinese 150 to this so i'm happy
Does the rear diff still make a 'clacking' noise when rolling down a rough hill?
Should i buy one???
How long did You rehearse everything You said?
I own one and I absolutely love it
I have a Honda 420 Rancher footshift camo edition spot of mud under the wheel well lcd screen and this offends me.
No, but seriously. I do have a Honda 420 Rancher Footshift, and I love it. I go in as deep mud and over big rocks and tall hills, and i have never needed more power. I tow tree cuts around my backyard as well to get my dad's truck out. I never felt like I have less power or that i needed more. It is very quick "off the line" and has been through so much abuse, a Canned Ham or any other 4 wheeler, I just dont see making through what my Honda has gone through. It literally ran on diesel for like 20 minutes before i realized i PUT disel in there. I dumped the tank, put ACTUAL gas in there, and ran it some to burn out the diesel. Works fine now.
The more I ride mine the more I like it.
Do you have any reviews on the 2021 models?? I've been watching reviews videos and alot of them were saying they are junk. Paint chipping off, moisture in the instrument pod.
I own one. If I had it to do over again I would buy a different brand. Keep in mind, nothing is actually covered on the warrantee. The starter switch broke 3 months after I bought it... Not covered: $329 to fix. The winch switch broke after that $179... not covered. The cable on the winch has been replaced 3 times because the plow they sell is designed so the hook on the winch bumps the rollers on its way up and eventually the cable snaps. Also, the battery is mounted right on the frame in the middle with the coolant reservoir right out in the open for dirt, water, and rocks to get all over everything. It's cheap, low quality, plastic, and it's engineered poorly. Go buy a different brand.
I wish I could review all new a shiny bikes.. How about a long duration testing and let the bikes get like 2500 + miles of riding and then come back with a review.. EVERYTHING NEW IS NICE OR IT WOULDN'T BE NEW!!
Drive a 570 can am what a great machine .remember you get what you pay for. I learned the hard way .now i ride can am there is no other
ah that's cute
Why polaris don't make there front diff same as atv . There Rangers front diff 4x4 automatic kicks in in 2wd or turf mode
I hear the Polaris part are much higher then other manufacture's parts and the life of them are not that long. I'm getting ready to buy a ATV and it will be between the 570 and the Kawasaki Brute Force 750 4x4i. I want something that will last for years and that is reliable.
Does anyone know what the SP stands for/means?
More *** HIPE ***. It is a good machine if you're into the fix-it mode. Yes, they run well if you spend a few thousand at a dealership every year. You don't get much fixing for over $100.00 per hour. I find buying a new $180.00 battery every 2 years helps a lot with the starting.
not a bad looking quad but does anyone here use the 570 for plowing snow? if yes how is it and do you like it?
I just bought a used 2015 570 EPS and did some plowing about 3 weeks ago, works awesome! I use to have a 2000 450 Foreman, now that was rough and the steering was so difficult.
pleaase make a test between Renegade 1000xxc an scrambler 1000xp 2017 or 2018?! to say how is better sport atv? thanks
I found the engine brake to be way too aggressive.
hard agree!
Its too aggressive for slow riding, but ive found that when you are riding trails quickly, or hauling a trailer its quite good... but I do agree, its pretty jarring at slower speeds
It's probably the CVT
I bought one. I was driving it for 4 months and then the cvt broke... some components just stop working. I have the pics pf it. I live in Peru, was driving it on the mountains and it just lost all power. The engine was working but the transmission just broke, the guarantee is working but i was expecting better quality. Oh they tried to avoid apply the guarantee, not the house here in Peru, polaris US. It is not a bad ATV but definitely is not as hard as it claim it is.
I thank you for the review if it was your money would you take 570s or the Can-Am comparable. My research indicates the Polaris is just not that reliable and there are recalls is this true?
I have Polaris 06 500 Honda Rancher 420 Dct Eps Irs she is beast love thumb shift I am fan of foot shift after I get my Polaris fixt letting my nephew and neice have it
Do the axles really break easy like people say they do and does it get hot too
Usually depends on how hard you're being on the vehicle. Every ATV will have axle failures if you beat the crap out of it and don't take care of it.
When they work they are great, bad thing they are not durable. Cheap under powered battery, front differential input bearing, even plates inside the muffler came loose in the first year, under 900 miles
Polaris just upgraded the axles by 50% also the front diff cover for 2018 models . But they need to move the battery even if its a agm sealed unit
I was just under my 2017 saying I hate where the batt is
Does all nelt driven bikes make that lil click nosie when u slow down for a second then give it gas again or is anyone else polaris bike make lil nosie in suspension when over bumps
Always loved Honda. Have. 2014 Honda recon and papa has 2 older 90 model recon and a 350 but I will buy me one of these!
I have Polaris 06 500 Honda Rancher 2015 420 shes beast I am letting my nephew and neice have my Polaris I will never go back to them
@@leeallenbeal yeah for sure changed my mind since then and I’ll get a rancher if anything
@Shoals Grove Dog Pack good deal
good advertisement DT... but the 570SP is a great machine and the seat is lower than the original 570, ... which was terrible.
Hey you should do another video on the 570 sp
Ok the 450 has the same engine as the 570 if you look at The sticker on the back of the engine or if the company you bought it from just told you. They both have the same engine 500 cc
But my uncle owns one and it's a 2014 570 and I go to his house almost every weekend and he also has a 2005-2006 Polaris 500 and he's done more work on the 570 then he has on the 500 and it's mainly electric issues
A bigger machine will win in a drag race but that's about it. If the trail gets tight whoever is the better rider will be the fastest on the trail
Ya I love it to I have the base model camo 570
Price tag for the " SP" its outrageous in my opinion. However i bought my 2016 570 for 4600 bucks out the door. Base model no power steer, you get the idea. I think SP stands for " Special Price". Yea i know they got all the extra gizmos but a new 570 for 4600 bucks at Abernathies Polaris in Union City TN was a deal hard to pass up.
that's a great price. I agree, take good care of it and you'll have a great deal. Extra stuff can break.
Honestly the base is a great quad but if in the budget a 570 with the sp front suspension is the best of both worlds a smaller bore with a better ride also a lighter bike.
I would just like to see the sales invoice , were you got that bike out the door for 4600.00 dollars.....
You don't have to take my word for it......call them and ask what a base model cost with no power steer or engine braking. Abernathies in Union City TN is well known to be one of the....if not THE....cheapest places to buy polaris in the USA. I also didn't pay sales tax because I was out of state buyer which kept the price down as well. I just checked and their website is showing MSRP instead of what they actually sell for. In 2016 they advertised the actual cash price and i bought a Orange 570 for 4600 bucks out the door. Drove 400 mile round trip to get it.
Looks good
I'm interested in a new 2017 kodiak 700 whats ur personal opinion
I love my 2019 Kodiak
I rolled the dice and bought my first utility quad. I am used to race quads and dirt bikes but where I’m from in the winter you can do it all with a 4x4. Anyway went into it blind and thought I got a good deal on a quad which was a 1996 Polaris sportsman 500. When I got it I went through the fluids and did the brakes and road it had had a good time every weekend for months. Then literally everything started breaking. Parts are impossible to find and very expensive mainly because it’s old which I understand. But shit dude I will never EVER buy a used ATV again in my life. The money I’ve spent in one year could have gone towards 3 years of payments towards a new quad. And I’m in a clan because nobody will buy a broken quad so all you can do is suck it up fix it properly and then hopefully sell it. Like I said though never again used. But sure I’d buy a Polaris again but next time it will be a RZR
570 underpowered? LOL I drive around a Polaris Magnum 325 2x4 and it hauls my 205 lbs ass just fine for going fishing and fooling around. Of course it's a little gutless but it all depends on what you're using it for. I do plan on getting a 570 or possibly a Rubicon 520
"Budget Friendly"
I test ride one these one time and a limb caught the 4wd switch wires tore it completely out
Could happen on any vehicle. These things get ridden in nature. Hit a rock hard enough and it'll wreck your day too.
You make awesome videos
Anybody ever have a problem with the battery being on the bottom of the frame?
2018 models are out....
Marchiafava Mafia it's 2017 though.....
jared Noah you obviously don't know anything about how vehicles are released
Marchiafava Mafia your profile picture is Walmart
RJ Pollock it's a picture of an upside down fire escapee sign at Walmart
Sao Việt Nam không nhập khẩu loại xe này nhỉ.toi rất thích loại xe này có thể thay thế xe máy.va nó ăn toàn hơn xe máy.👍👍👍
Can you do the 570 utility edition
OK Dirt Trax Please do something good by now testing out a Can Am 570XP. Disregard the price point and make a bit of a comparison with the Polaris 570. Look carefully at build quality and the smart useful features of one over the other. Give us a good helpful tip on which way to spend our hard earned money that will last us for years to come. Even talk a little about Yamaha or Honda in comparison to Polaris or Can Am!!!!
How much did it cost
Can't recall the MSRP on a 2017.
Polaris is actually stupid. The battery is still on the skid plate next to the drive shafts for all the water and mud to get on. They lookngood, ride giod, and are fast but polaris needs to work on things like that and reliability. I've seen it first hand with there problems
The ACE is a better design. Kept centralized and safe.
Mud can get on the battery, really thats your complaint!? Its a vented battery that can be muddy and under water whats the issue?
So many bitch about the battery and it's location...yes the factory batteries are crap, but a sealed AGM battery takes care of that problem.
It's all fun and games until it breaks
Then that's when the Honda comes in and tows it home. LOL
fixedgearforlife Honda can barely pull its own weight around what makes you think it can pull another atv home?
longboardguy, I've got a photo album of Hondas pulling other quads home. Mostly Polaris.
hondas are fucking gutless, the automatic trans is a hunk of shit. (coming from a former owner)
Honda’s are for Little boys and old men to ride! No balls!
What do you think about electric atv or utv?
i want a new machine whats honda sayin...
Good looking as 88 years old ass! In my eyes. At Finland and my county and my use CAN-AM beats Polaris as fuck at power, price/gadget, and Stability.
Big lots deal on em, yep you nailed it! That's hilarious!
Could two ride on it
Price ?
You can find pricing on any of Polaris' international sites.
Spent so much fixing my 570 could have bought two rubicon 500s
You guys should start reviewing "older" bikes, I think it would make for a great series!
For a start, the BRP DS650X! There is basically nothing even remotely related to this bike anywhere, apart from the odd forum which died back in 2009 :(
Can you guys do a test ride on the canam renegade XMR 1000??
Why would a 570 not be good 570 is a lot of cc
“Five sevinny”
Yup nice bike for about 500k then your gonna be at the parts department every time you take it out absolutely would never buy another Polaris after having a number of them
You just sold me on one I found for sale
its not the same chassis as the 850 or 1000. its the same as a base 570, just with a different front suspension setup.. can I have a test riding gig?
I am a tried and true red white and blue Honda fan.Mint:1986 Honda ATC 250sx among other,s in the past. If Honda would step up there game a build something with more ball,s in the power Dept. Then consider me a buyer instead I went with a 2018 Yamaha Grizzly 700 and absolutely Love it. Has plenty of everything won more ATV shootout,s than all the other,s can there ultramatic CVT drive system really be beat?? I will still be blazing trail,s when you guy,s are broke down and looking for answer,s?? 😫😣.
Loved my Honda 300 back in the day and would love to buy a new Honda, but my friends would leave me in the dust so I am looking at other brands. The Grizzly 700 is on top of the list.
Been there bought it n never again will i make the mistake
Cat Jack Why didnt it go well?
THE PICKLETON17 I bought the 570 limited edition pearl black in the summer of 2016, was great for the first month until the problems started. Rear stabilizer link snapped while on a rocky part of a trail, the front diff seal started leaking at 120k so I got that fixed, broke the first axel at 200k warranty covered this. Broke the second at 300k warranty would not cover it. Took the bike in they said the front diff was shot cost me 800 bucks to get it fixed. By the winter the bike wouldn’t start on colder days Polaris got the worst batteries on the market and the worst starters my uncles brand new rzr 900 has been in the shop 6 times due to started and computer issues and it’s 4 months old. By the time fall 2017 rolled around I was on my 7th axel I got fed up polaris customer service is complete shit I paid 12 for the bike here in Canada and got 6600 for it a year and a half later. This is an honest experience Polaris sickens me.

sure its good looking and a Test Drive is a Test Drive ! wait till you own one and use it for a week ! bought a New 2018 on 11/22/17 Hunter Edition , 1 week later bike started acting up, melted brake lens to no power steering to low Voltage , lights go out and gets Hot, 50 hours of shop time on a New Machine to Polaris stumbling on Fix's ! Wrong information loaded on bikes Computer on and on and on Guys,,,,,,,, its like dating a good looking women and she has no JOB !
The 570 is polaris worst atv in terms of gremlins and reliability in years.
Most worthless racks I've ever seen. I use mine as a farm tool. My 2001 Polaris Sportsman is a workhorse. Loved those flat, plastic, indestructible racks with anchor points everywhere. New ones appear worthless for work and feel fragile. User reports confirm it. These are trail toys now... not tools. Sorry, Polaris...as much as I loved my 2001, I can't spend my money on a machine that seems to have the word "workhorse" intentionally designed out of it.
automatic I assume?
Dirt Trax Television i'm a bit surprised you dont know that sp also stands for new close ratio awd system you didn't mention here at all. This close ratio is the biggest and the best difference to non sp models in my oppinion. -> ua-cam.com/video/izbU6nxQbVU/v-deo.html
cotcot agree got it on new 850 night and day difference in snow and ice as well as plowing!
