Retrofit Power Steering to Polaris ATV - Was it Worth It?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 сер 2024
- Polaris Sportsman X2 with Power Steering: We built the world's first 2006 Polaris Sportsman X2 with power steering (we're pretty sure) by using a kit for a new model Polaris from our friends at SuperATV.com. There are no aftermarket kits for this generation Polaris, but SuperATV.com makes one of the very best for later gen ATVs, so we called up our friends and they hooked us up.
In this series wrap-up we take a look at the results and decide if it was worth it or not. So come along and enjoy another episode of Motors & Mischief! #polaris #polarispowersteering #motorsandmischief

Heated Grips is *a must* on a Polaris. You need to maintain SOME sort of comfort level while you *wait for your buddy with the **-Yamaha-** Not-A-Polaris to come back with the Tow Strap.* looool
Ford R&D came out with the Heated Tail Gate Handles for a similar issue - Makes pushing your truck home *WAY* more comfortable in the winter.
LOL
This was definitely enough to convince me powersteering is worth it, Super ATV makes some nice products. Tired of messing up my shoulders after riding. Also very funny!
I just added this kit to my 2006 500 HO EFI this weekend. I got a 10-12 mile test drive I’m and I am quite impressed. I was expecting more of a step down
In steering assist at higher speeds but it will be quick to adapt to.
That's awesome, nice job! We're still loving ours and still highly recommend it. Thanks so much for the comment!
Please do a video of you installing power steering on that older sportsman 500 please.
We're going to do it for Mark for sure, and we'll publish the video for you guys. Stay tuned!! Thanks for commenting!
He's been riding for 30 years I would love to know what his first Polaris ATV model was I'm a hardcore Polaris fan an have always been and it sounds like he is too LOL I started out writing their snowmobiles I was 4 years old when I got my first Polaris snowmobile that was just mine didn't have to share with any brothers or sisters it was a 1989 Polaris Indy 488 fan-cooled 2-stroke twin cylinder engine I would really love to know what his first model of ATV was??
We asked Mark and he said that was a great question. He didnt remember but is thinking about it. We also want to know!
@@MotorsandMischief I thought it might be a good question if he started riding 30 years ago he either took very good of the machines he had or he's been through a few of them LOL
power steering is in my future thanks for the video
Dr Torque's brother is an electrical engineer who used math to determine a recommended resistor for cutting power to the hand grips. Jake was worried that it would cool the temperature too much, so he got a different resistor first. He really needs to learn to listen to Dr Torque and his brother the first time.
Uncle Jake says "There's the right way, the wrong way, and my way" My way generally takes longer and ends up at the right way.
With out a doubt the power steering kit is awesome! You need it trust me. And does anyone want to help me mow the yard?
WatchJRGo is putting a nitrous kit on his John Deer... perhaps we need to mod yours haha!
Bought the kit still need to put it on good video !
Installation in progress
Great video! I see 3 different motor watt options listed on their site for the universal kit. What size does your kit have?
Thank you! We had the 380w. You should let us know how it goes on your machine! If you get one, tell them you saw it here lol.
I have a 2006 Polaris Sportsman 800. Is there a video that shows the installation to that year Polaris? Thanks in advance.
As far as we know, the video we made on our 2006 X2 is the only retrofit power steering video that exists. If you haven't watched those 2 videos, we recommend you do as we make reference to the differences between the X2 and some of the other models throughout. Thanks for the question!
@@MotorsandMischief I’ll go to your chanell to look for those videos. Thanks for the reply.
What is the part number of the kit?
Wow we were gonna say check the description but apparently we completely forgot to link the product in all 3 of the videos. This should be the right kit for you, but check out SuperATV's website, they have a few different ones to choose from and depending on your ATV a different kit might work better: www.superatv.com/universal-power-steering-kit-170w-220w
What amazes me is you folks actually believe this is a real log !!!!
It’s either Gunite or styrofoam .
Real logs are for chumps! We actually don't know what you're talking about but thanks for commenting!
