Going to pick one of these up today, it is a 2019 with only 800 miles on it, looks like new. I am glad I watched this, seems like a great machine.
Just bought my first sxs. I got the 800r. Wish I could have got the dps but I still love it. One negative for me is the heat. Inside the cab
You tube the seat belt hack. No cutting or anything simple simple trick
Buddy Pinkham yea it does get hot in there. As you can see I use mine mostly for work so the heat isn’t as big of an issue. What do you use yours mostly for?
Dude I really love the set up for real this side by side is the best value hands down I love it
Awesome colour, i really dig it.
I put Dynamat under the centre plastics to reduce the heat and noise on my 800 DPS back in 2014 when i brought it new, it made quite a difference.
That 800cc has heaps of power, although i'm tempted to get a new one, but a 1000cc LTD this time.
Dude I just lost my 800 and just got another one check out the old one im putting all the same stuff on my new one can't wait to do a video its in the shop now im so excited went from the dealer to the shop i can't wait coming back hard
I just bought the Commander 800r today. I added power steering and a top. I love this video and gonna implement some of your tips. I love this buggy because I love hunting and playing so its gonna suit me perfectly!! Thanks for an amazing video!!
Thanks Darlene for the comment! Best of luck with you and your new Commander! Still loving mine!
They are advertising used one near me with windshield etc for 10,999 is that good?
Hidden Harvest Grow Lights I would say yes!! I paid around 13k after taxes.
My dad is the manager for Polaris and I have a rzr 570. It’s a great little machine. My dad traded in a commander 800 dps with the local surf club and it’s terrible all of the steering components are rusted. If the Tyers lost traction for a second the clutch would kick in and he would have to back of. You would have to give it a second for the gears to change after using the ‘shifter’ or what ever cause it delayed
So far I have not had any troubles out of my machine. It makes the occasional squeaks but that’s to be expected with a machine that gets used for rough work and play.
I drove a 1000 Commander for the 1st time while on vacation to Greece. It was a tour but ended up being a race up the side of a mountain. The machine is bad ass and you can get sideways when hammering corners. A "tour" like this would never fly in America. It was the most scary and fun UTV intro ever lol.
That sounds awesome man!!! Sounds like a lot of fun!
@@SouthernPineOutdoors It was crazy dangerous fun. My wife on the other hand was not pleased and took over driving at the top of the mountain lol.
J M I literally just laughed out loud! 😂 that sounds so much like me and my wife! Hahaha
Awesome video. Haven't decided yet between Commander or General but really appreciate seeing all the mods you've made. Great job.
Outdoor Adventures Canada i dont think you could go wrong with either one honestly!
I love the general. The power is unreal, and its overall a nice machine. Easy to get in and out and awesome half doors that makes it easy to fully cab in.
@@Travide I ended up getting the Polaris General, the dealer had a great deal on a pimped out model and so far it's a beast. I'll have video up soon.
Great video. I've been looking to add a 3rd sxs to my stable, and the Commander (1000) is the main one I am considering. Currently have a 2018 Teryx 2 LE and a Mule Pro FXT LE. The only thing I'm concerned about is the DPS. Seems like alot of oversteering is required. My Kawasaki's power steering is speed sensitive and you can turn them with on finger on the trails.
Psycho Wookiee the Kawasaki teryx and Mule were my next choice of sxs. I even hook up my 6x12 utility trailer and fill it full of limbs and wood and haul it around the property with very little struggle from the utv. I have no real need for the 1000 due to I don’t go as fast 😂
There is 3 modes on the power steering. Min/med/max assist. They are all speed sensitive. I always keep mine on max as mine is used mostly for trails and a lot of lower speeds and going in and out of trees and so forth. But there is 3 modes.
@@sterlingslawncare8028 Thanks for the comment
Did you ever decide on another SXS for your stable/farm? If so what kind did you decide on?
I'm interested in the 800R DPS and was wondering if it would squeeze on a 5' wide by 9 1/2' trailer. Didn't want to buy another trailer if I could get by with the one I have. Thanks for your comment.
fortdixie I know a 5x10 trailer will work for a fact. The length of a 9ft trailer should work to get your wheels on it but depending on the type of gate you have on the back of your trailer the gate may not go up all the way without hitting the tailgate/front bumper of the commander depending on how you load it. If you have the option to take the gate off or your trailer has a lower gate then you should be ok. Hope this helps! Let me know if ya get one!!
Great video, thanks. Wish they had that top for the 800 Commander Max 4 seater. Also, have debated on putting side mirrors on or just a rear view mirror. Any suggestions?
Dan Rowles the side mirrors are pretty useful, the rear view mirror/center mirror probably wouldn’t be needed as much unless you ride with groups because you won’t be able to see behind you except for what is above the bed of the sxs. I was thinking today when are they going to start putting back up cameras on the sxs’s 😂 thanks for watching the video and commenting!
Great presentation Bryan. Can you buy those mirrors after market? I was thinking of adding some to our tractor but we need something rugged.
Terry
Below is the link of the mirrors. I have been very pleased with them as far as durability and the fact that even small limbs hit the back of it from time to time and they still don't move. If you have a round post 2 inches or less they should work!

Thanks for the great review. I am interested in the side mirrors you have. When ordering they say that they ill not fit the Commander. Obviously they are not correct as you have them on your. Any install issues?
The roof is awsome. But time gets shipped to New Zealand quad that price. Nice relaxed vid keep it up
Thanks for the awesome comment! And yes I love this roof the lights are the best part! I can bush hog at night and it’s like day out in the fields!
Did you ever track down the make and model of the roof? I really liked how it had all those features!
RobtheGuy327 this is the link to the one on there website. i paid about $1,200 for mine the guy had put it on a maverick and didnt like it so he changed his mind. probox.com/products/off-road-tops/can-am/maverick-trail-sport/cams
Hi, hey we bought a Commander XT 1000 this spring and we love it! But it sounds like there's some loose heat shield or something under the center console area between the seats. The guys where we bought it are telling us it's the normal sound on it. But I think there's a heat shield that's not tight or a bolt missing. Does yours have that rattle sound when you start giving it throttle and letting off?????
There's no way in my mind that should be normal!
I dont have a rattle sound. I have less than 50 hours on mine and I have a slight squeak in on of the front wheels just havent gotten around to figuring out what is causing it haha. I would say you are right about the heat shield though or maybe a loose plastic panel? Is it a metal on metal sound?
It is not a heat shield. I thought that it was the same thing but. The problem was the bushings on the primary
Primary clutch plastic bushings. Y.
Would love that hitch. Where did you get it? Great video!

here is the link if it doesnt work right i bought it on Amazon its called the Black Boar atv/utv hitch
@@SouthernPineOutdoors thank you
@@scottmichel9582 your welcome!!
Where did you get your speakers from ?
Annamaria Masina it is part of the roof that I bought. The company is called ProBox. probox.com/
How about getting in and out with that safety rail?
Thanks for the comment Travis. Yea the safety rails on the sides are a bit of an issue. I am a bigger guy.... well 5'6'' at 225lbs and i find it hard sometimes getting in and out. Technically you could remove the rails on the sides and have no issues at all or like you said install half doors! 😀
How deep in water can this go? Anything you can buy got make it go deeper?
With a stock setup I probably wouldn’t go any deeper than the tires unless I just had too. You can add a lift, larger tires, or relocate the air intake in order to go deeper through the water. The air intake is located on the hood of the machine. I personally don’t use mine to go through mud/water and rarely take it on trail rides even. I use mine mostly for work around the farm and hunting. I hope this helps and thanks for watching the videos!
Is the trailer you use to haul the 800r a 5x10 trailer?
It’s a 6x12 I believe the trailer I used to bring it home from the dealer was in fact a 5x10 and it barely fit. I went just a little longer to be able to put a cooler or something else on the trailer or just to have room to walk around. I hope this helps and thanks for watching the videos!
Have you had any issues with the machine? I hear mixed reviews on this machine.
To be honest I have been very pleased with this machine. I use it around my 10 acre property to do work around the yard. I pull a 6x12 trailer with limbs and things like that all the time. I also use it to pull a tow behind bush hog to cut a 4 acre field. So I put it through some unusual stuff. If you are looking for a UTV that is good at trail rides as well as yard/farm work I would say this is the best all around. If you are looking for something just for trails I would go with the razor or maverick since they have the most available aftermarket parts available. If you are looking for one geared more towards farm I would go with the ranger or defender for the same reason for the available accessories and such.
I hope this helps if I didn’t answer fully let me know!
@@SouthernPineOutdoors thanks for the reply, that’s exactly the type of answer I was looking for.
How many hours/miles are on your sxs now?
@@matthewhargroder7187 I am not sure exactly right off hand but I would say around 100 at the most
anyone have a link for the roof
Here is the link to the roof for the 2014-2020 can am commanders
probox.com/products/off-road-tops/can-am/maverick-commander/14cam
I've had mine up to 72mph...
Thats way tooooo dang fast for my blood Tom!!! hahaha I've hit around 45-50 so far in it. maybe if i had a flat stretch of pavement to do it on i would go a little faster 😂
How's it working out for you still?
silverback765 for my purposes it’s great! I can work around the yard/property then go ride the trails with the boys! It’s really the best of both worlds. I h e driven my fair share of gators, four wheelers, golf carts, and work Utvs to know I wanted something that was comfortable to drive but also versatile. If you did more farm/ranch work I would say get the defender or ranger for sure, but if ya want the in between go with the commander for the price! I hope this helps and thanks for the comment!
@@SouthernPineOutdoors Thanks for the reply! Do you find it to be noisey and hot in cab? Btw it's dynamic not direct power steering.
silverback765 the cab in my opinion is not any louder than any other utv. I will say it does get hot in the cab. This is more noticeable obviously in the summer time. I use mine to pull the tow behind bush hog I have for about 3-4 hours once a month during the summers and I will usually do it at night so it’s not so hot anyways weather wise. I know there are some shields you can get to put behind the inner panels I just haven’t found the justification for me to do that. As long as you are moving the heat doesn’t seem to be much of an issue. The biggest complaint I have with the heat is that the cup holders are basically useless once the machine heats up because the cup holders are right above the engine bay.
Hope this helps!
