John, I have watched several videos you have done on this bike and it has helped tremendously! Really helpful how you state what sizes the bolts are. Keep up the good work!! Thank you
Thanks for the step-by-step! I've a 2016 sportsman 850 sp and am not really wanting to have to take it to the dealer and leave it for a month just so they can service it. This will save me some money, too.
On the rare machine that has the filter vertical like this one you can fill the oil filter with oil before you install it..the oil light will go out much sooner saving more wear and tear on the engine than many miles of riding,....thanks for the video
i was thinking the same exact thing. i've always done this with my truck and i've heard it's actually better for the engine
This only applies to turbo engines. Nothing else!
Brilliant video, clear instructions that are really helpful, thanks for posting
Thanks for watching!
john deere sells the filter wrench for about $5.
He looks happy it started
Darn right! Nothing beats the sound of an engine growling after you've been tinkering with it. Whether it's a full top-end rebuild or just an oil change, the sounds just as sweet.
This comment cracked me up. Just said a little prayer before turn over.
Partzilla agree I get the same way at work we repair CAT heavy machinery and nothing sounds better then it purring after diving into it for a week lol! Thanks for the how to I imagine this applies to the 2016 sportsman as well
should fill the oil filter up with oil before the reinstall.. and what a horrible location for the oil filter.. good vid..
Hallo, thanx for the video, can you explain what for is hood air intake and can you tell if it is necessary to have on my polaris? thanx
Hey my friend you are really good at what you do!! Can I find these oil and tools at auto part stores?? Thanks 🙏
Excelente. Thanks
Do you have any video on the fuel tank removal?
What happens if I forget the crush washer? I did. And I’d hate to change the oil again just to put it back on.
Hi, please tell me what kind of lubricant do you use when you smear the edge of the air filter during installation? Thanks.
Hello John I have a 2016 - 570 Polaris. sportsman. I’m having Heating issues and I think the thermostat is bad. Do you have any videos on it?
My 2011 Sportsman 850 is geting engine oil in the air box, what would you recommend? Replacement of the PCV?
Greg, Check compression. You're probably getting a bunch of blow by that's forcing oil into the breather line to the intake.
Greg Doyle
I have a 2011 850xp also. Yes change the pvc system. There is a new laberith oil update for the pvc system. It's about $65 or so. You will have to have Polaris look it up in the computer unless you can find the part number. Sorry I don't have it on hand anymore. Hope this helps.
perfect
When you replaced the air filter, was there any oil in the air box? The reason I ask is there was oil in my air box. How is the oil getting in there? Is there a seal that I'm not aware? Thanks in advance
You can get some blow back that will cause a little oil to get in the air box. Just double check that you are not over filled.
Will do...thanks for the advice.
Are all these sportsmans videos comparable to a 2015 sportsman etx ?
Great video. I appreciate it. Quick question...driving my 850 this weekend for about 15 mins at sustained speed of 30 mph (was about 80 degrees out and driving on a blacktop road). All of the sudden started losing power. Let it rest overnight and then worked fine. Any hint of what may be going on?
This can be tough to diagnose. It's definitely a heat issue. Clean out the radiator and make sure you're getting good airflow, then airbox and filter. It could be vapor lock if your fuel lines are over heating. It could be a clutch issue. It's all about running through all the options and eliminating things one by one.
Do you have a video on that?
We don't have anything on that yet, but we will add it to the list.
I bought a 2017 Polaris sportsman 1000 xp, How soon should i perform maintenance and what should that maintenance be?

Hi John. I have a 2017 450 HO Sportsman. Im going to change oils on both front and rear differentials. But I have 3 kind of them: AGL, Demand Drive and Angle Drive. Can you kindly tell which one where ? Thanks inn advance !!
He actually made a video of exactly what you asked. Check his other videos and look for the one with the front, rear diffs and trans oil changes. Good luck
Good Video, Thanks. I have a 2011 Sportsman XP 550. Is everything you did the same?
Andrew Weaver it will be the same except your oil capacity might be less

is the pre filter needed?
Hello Noel. I would use the pre filter, every little bit helps.
my 2011 sportsman 850 4x4 suddenly will not engage, any ideas on where to start looking????
Take a look at the belt. ua-cam.com/video/WTk2UCHo-Q0/v-deo.html
I just recently bought myself a 2013 scrambler 850 ho xp . riding along and suddenly felt like it governed out and engine light came on . started to sputter as I continued gave it throttle and it sputtered again . idk had to idle home. fluids are good filter is dirty as shit , could that be the problem or something different
Did you ever figure out what it was?
I am looking to purchase a 2014 Polaris sportsman 850 xp used of course. The rear end looks like it is sagging a bit in the photo on the ad. Does this model have adjustable suspension?
Hello Christine. Yes, the suspension is adjustable on this unit. To adjust it you need a spanner wrench.
I have an 850 touring eps. At low speed in high range I have what appears to be a clutch squeal or maybe belt. It is ok when get over 20 km/ hr. Do you have any idea what may be the cause, alignment between clutches, belt clutch itself etc? What can I do to rectify the annoying noise?
It's really hard to diagnose something like that over the internet. It could be a belt is going bad or something more serious in the clutch. You can crack into it and inspect the belts, or take it somewhere just to diagnose the issue and go from there.
Low gear is for low speed. Under 10mph in High gear you are eating your belt.
I have a polaris 570 so do you recommend out the oil in under the seat or in the dipstick hole
+Francine Dailey: We fill our XP 850 right into the dipstick hole (see oil filling part of the video: ua-cam.com/video/A4qCLaohlOM/v-deo.htmlm40s). Under the seat is where you'll be installing your clean air filter.
I have a k&n airfilter for mine. I find it hard to tell if it's in correct. if it's not in right will the cover still close??
Hello John. The lid will only close if the filter is installed correctly.
Partzilla thanks :) also where do you buy that oil filter cup that fits the filter. I can't find one small enough
How do I change out gaskets on exhaust for Polaris 700 sportsman twin?
Just disconnect midpipe, unbolt the header and put a new one in!
Is this the same on a18 sportsman 850sp
what type of grease...would vasaline work?
No. It doesn't have chapped lips! Use engine grease. Hi temp and waterproof. All the brands sell a version, as does Maxima. Lots of options.
15 and i am going to buy an ATV that i can use on the road. (i live in Norway and we can drive it when we are 16)
What is the best ATV for me? I'm thinking i want to buy a car when i turn 18. I am going to use it on the farm aswell.

James Bono no need anymore, i bought a polaris sportsman 550 x2
If u got arms, no ”oilfilterwrench” is needed...🇸🇪🍺🌲
on my ATV when I hold the brake little bit it starts making a jerk noises what makes it do that ????
Going to need some clarification. Does the ATV jerk like the brakes are grabbing or it makes a noise of some sort? What model ATV?
it dose grab little bit when I use the brake but it dose jerk maybe It has little bit dusty from the last ride
Check for debris. Might as well inspect the rotors to make sure they aren't warped or bent.
I know it sounds silly but it kind of has me concerned
What the hell is ooool
what oil filter wrench is that
never mind saw it second time I watched
my 2011 polaris sportsman 850xp eps leaked oil from the engine block. the original owners only did 1 oil change and it was with a terrible brand. i went ahead and did a oil change with the polaris extreme duty oil change kit. it had stopped leaking from there on, was that the reason it leaked?
It is possible that with a cheap underweight oil, it managed to find some areas to seep out of. Using the proper engine oil is essential. Hopefully, that correct oil does the trick!
So you don't have to spray oil on that filter??
With the paper OEM filters, do not apply oil. Some aftermarket filters and foam filters get oiled. These machines will run both types.
Partzilla are foam filters better? If so can I get a foam filter that fits my quad?? Another question can I use k&n filter oil to oil foam filters on my quads??
There are some foam filters on the market for this ATV. (We're assuming you have a Sportsman 850.) www.partzilla.com/parts/detail/aftermarket/XP-4797769.html
Double check this is the correct application for your vehicle.
As for the oil, K&N Filter oil is made for a different filter material, so we wouldn't recommend using it on a foam filter. Get a good foam specific oil. There are a ton of brands out there. They are designed to be a little more sticky so the oil won't leak into your airbox as much and helps catch more fine sand.
