My First Ride on a Polaris Outlaw 525 IRS

- I was fortunate enough to ride one of my favorite sport quads of all time! Big thanks to AJ for letting me take his awesome Outlaw for a rip! This machine was very innovative when it was released. It's such a shame the market crashed not long after and future development stopped. I really enjoyed my ride on this quad and I would love to have one in the garage someday!
I'm super stoked about the new Honda shirt design!

The mighty outlaw finally gets its Pete Hager review. Glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks for letting me check it off my bucket list 😅 it was so cool to finally ride one 🤘
Pete Hager hey I just watched the video you made when you were chasing the 450r at spider lake and I want to show you a place that’s fun and it’s called Durhamtown and if you go on the trails go to L trail when it’s dry and it’s so beautiful
I believe it's the best overall quad of it's time
Pete deserves more fame , he is so dedicated to UA-cam
Bought a 525 irs last fall right before it snowed..... been patiently waiting to take it out on the trails. cant wait!!!
I became an Outlaw fan roughly a year ago. The 06-08 body style (500/525) has an awkward seating position in my opinion. If you add 1-2" of foam pad to level the seat it's a lot nicer! I like how the battery is located under the headlights on the older body style because it's completely out of the way when shopping for better nerf bars. The larger fuel tank is also welcoming on the older models, but that being said 09+ IRS models are by far my favorite if you can find one. The seat is plusher, ride height is lower, footpegs are moved 1" forward, and comes standard with a steering stem that accepts clamps spaced 4" apart.
I originally had an HMF exhaust on my 09 and went to a 172mj, 48 pilot, 5th clip on the needle and it hit harder than my YFZ450R. I liked the looks of the Yoshimura exhaust better and lost the bottom-mid range hit with the spark arrestor installed. I was really surprised by how smooth the power curve became with the Yoshimura. On the bright side the Yoshimura is quieter. I will probably sell that and go back to an HMF Performance series as I'm not racing the Outlaw so the hit is welcoming.
I enjoyed watching the video! The next time you come through KY we really need to try harder to meet up at one of the local parks.
Thanks for all the great info Kenneth! I really enjoyed my experience on this older style outlaw. I definitely hope to come rip with you in KY and to experience the 2nd generation outlaw. These are really cool machines and they definitely are super capable!
I learned a good Raptor lesson yesterday. Take a break as soon as you start to get tired. I got thrown off sliding around a corner. No serious injury, thank God. Keep up the videos man!
Good to hear you came out unscathed, it's definitely easy to get fatigued and not realize it. The Raptor is a ton of fun but it can get a bit dicy if you start to lose control of it
I have the same exact quad and love it. Key to keep the front end tamed, or at least for me, is all about tire preasure. If it's to high its like riding on ice all the time
that's awesome :) its nice to see older quads like that or older, quads that are so overlooked yet have so much potential, Outlaw's, Predator's, KTM's, Bombardier, Can Am's Cannondale's, Raptor's, ect all good machines but people for some reason always end up with 450's which is fine but its not the same, keep em coming Pete, you the man :)
Theres definitely a lot of very cool machines I hope to share over time. A cannondale would be about as rare as it gets 😅
@@PeteHager I've never seen one in person lol
Mannn im so happy to own this quad. May not be as good as a raptor. But there aint anything else like it.
It better than a raptor
Predators and outlaws are very underrated i had a 500 predator nobody raced me and had it seven years never had a hitch just regular maintenance..love that raptor you have too ..keep up the good work 👏
They fall apart... Thats why they are rated where they belong.
A guy my dad and i rode with got his..
And every ride something fell off or started rattling. They are top heavy and cornering is unclear at times. There isnt a quad on the market i would prefer the polaris pred or outlaw over... I would rather get the ktm 450 and learn to ride the lefty machine.
@@theofficialk.a.m...p4760 everyone is entitled to their opinion, I found the 500 predator to be reliable, crazy fast, like I said nothing went around me but I did have aftermarket exhaust and everything but so did the bikes I raced, I don't know what u got against predators your buddy must of got a lemon or either that he totally razed the shit out of it
Gotta keep the maintenance up, the oil and everything is the life of the bike
Yamaha all the way 🤟🏼
Man you're just commenting Yamaha on all videos lol.
Yamaha is da best
Honda😑
It sucks that Yamaha is the only company making sports quads nowadays
The raptors are awesome riding now but the plastics aren’t as great as the early 2000’s IMO but the YFZ is great still
Had an 08 outlaw 525 irs that I rode for a few years before I sold it last year. My all time favorite quad. Amazing sound and such consistent smooth torque. I miss it a lot!
Yup one of my fav quads of all time. I want another one
@@eschatts1 there’s always a few for sale but have a hard timid finding the irs one! I’d get so other one too for sure
I used to have an 07 Raptor 700 SE, 08 Outlaw 525 straight axle, and an 06 YFZ 450. The quickest off the line was the 525, the raptor felt like it had more top speed but I'm sure it would have taken it while to catch the Outlaw. The yfz felt and was much lighter than both. So easy to throw around and more forgiving on the body. The best mod you can do to the straight axle Outlaw 525 is MAKE yourself a custom intake, don't buy cause they won't do much better than stock. I bought a used intake trunk off a KTM 525 dirt bike, small PVC pipe, a pretty big k&n filter, and got rid of the stock intake box and made my own (no way the new intake and filter will fit). Spent less than $120. Huge improvement over stock. Went from the stock 139 main jet to a 176 main. Anyone with a 525 S knows they come with the smallest intake and box ever put on a sport quad. I never had any issues with any of my quads. Changed the oil every ride and filters every other. I didn't ride the 525 and 450 as much as I would have liked but neither gave me problems. I did hear that the KTM engines weren't that reliable so I am happy I never had any problems, I chalk that up to me not putting many hours on it. The raptor had full intake, pc3, and no baffle. Outlaw had full exhaust, custom intake with a k&n, and rejetted. Yfz was also full exhaust, intake and jetted.
The ktm rfs engines were very dependable pretty much bullet proof when maintained
That quad is definitely built different from most! Pretty cool! I cant lie tho, I wasnt really paying attention to it until after yall stopped riding cuz I was sorta locked in on the view and sound of your quad from your third person view in this case! Lol That's cool he let you ride his and you let him ride yours! 💯
I was very grateful that AJ offered to let me try his machine. I've always wanted to ride one! It was definitely cool to rip behind the raptor and I was stoked that he romped so we could hear it 😬
@@PeteHager that's awesome! You're such an humble guy!💪💯
@2:07 thats where i come in lol awesome video bro!
Just bought the t-shirt can't wait to get it
Thanks for your support! Shirt production will be done locally and they should be finished in 2-3 weeks. Can’t wait to see them 😬🤘
Its nice when you try other machines and give a review about it ! Very cool ! If i can give a little suggestion what would be cool also is if you do a little walk around with your friend's quads so they could tell what they did or put on their machines. Nice video as always bud !!
Loved my 525s
Always love you vids man!!!!
Cant wait for the new shirt Pete
Me either!! haha
Love the fact your intro isn't entirely you riding. Your friends are a part of it :) looking forward to another season of content my man. Keep up the good work and have some fun!!
I had my 525 engine rebuilt, it is now a 575, it blew up after I purchased DIRECTLY from the Polaris dealership.
Dang.
my dad got an outlaw a couple days ago and man that damn thing scares me! Still learning how to drive a manual quad...😅
I had an 06(?) 500 when they first came out. Myself and a friend both bought them new. I think this was back when they had the IRS outlaw and Predator. We both had quite a few issues in the short time we owned them but the IRS on a sport quad was really awesome! If the build quality was better I definitely would have loved to keep it!
Not a quad guy but still subbed since 18k
Thanks for following man!
My yfz is the same way I always hit neutral when riding but can never get it parked
Literally the most annoying thing ever, especially when the motor is built and it eats the rev limiter
I alway hit neutral when riding but find it when i want
what year do you have? i’ve never had this problem
@@Bela-tn3sn 2006 almost every time I start it and go from 1st to 2nd I hit neutral but after it warms up it isn't as bad
These quad reviews are sick man. Do as many as you can gets alot of views nice man!
My mom has the outlaw and I love it cause it’s so fast!
Your mom is a badass 😅🤘
Just upgraded to an Outlaw 500 from a CRF230F. This thing is gonna kill me oh my lord
Hope you had fun dude!
Bro your raptor sounds so good and that looks like a nice place to ride.
Nice came here as fast as I can
If you still have your KTM you should make a video of riding it!!!
I’m telling you we just picked up a Polaris 450mxr and there’s snow on the ground and road when we got home we unloaded it and I rode it and it’s so controlled and smooth even for the the tire pressure being too high and it being stupid slick outside 10/10 good job Polaris
Those KTM engines really start to open up once you feed it more air and rejet it, the all stock ones are nice, but most newer raptors will take em. But the fully moded out KTM 525 engines are absurdly fast. I've seen a few out there, and they are pretty hard to beat on a short drag.
Love the vids!
I hope there will be some vids on those trails...they look awesome!🤩
Definitely will be more video from this ride. Unfortunately we had one of the driest springs on record so it was pretty dusty that day like my previous videos
@@PeteHager no worries, they're still great...not so fun for you and the machines though :))
I would like to see some rides with some SxS's. Do a couple races, show the ease of picking the trail, and benefits to having a quad over a SxS. Especially in the dunes. The Raptor 700's are unstoppable at the dunes.
Last gen outlaws are beautiful
Your videos are super cool
I knew the Raptor would smoke that quad...
I love your vid and I watch all your vids and I love them
You need to try a Honda 700 XX
If you remember how was the power and on your ktm and how did you like it. My dad has a outlaw 525 irs and I know the power it has and how it rides but I am leading towards the ktm 525 over an outlaw because I think it look of it better, has a straight axel and over all has many adjustable components to have it really dialled in.
It's the same engine so power wise it should perform about the same. I've never ridden a straight axle outlaw but if your going to get one definitely aim for the 525. The motors require a lot of maintenance but the performance is worth it. I will say that owning some of these more unique machines can make sourcing parts a bit more difficult, especially if your looking for aftermarket
Please dont get a polaris we go riding all the time and everyone we know that has one is always broke down idk about ktm we dont have many around here but I'd stand clear of the 15 and down polaris and all banshees I'd go with like a raptor yfz ltr or trx
@@jordangress236 i have the irs and i can confirm always broke but never the engine its always everything else
Working on getting HondaTrx250x
I forgot these even existed
it needs a jet air box delete and a free flowing exhaust and it wakes up alot
really made mine better
I have 2 of the bug eyed 400ex's. We love riding them. Sport quads are sadly dying out. Wish Honda would bring them back.
Solid video my dude! Hope to meet up some day if u come to Appleton again!
We will definitely do a subscriber meet up sometime later this season at Appleton. I was hoping to have done some by now but Covid put everything on hold.. I just want to make sure I cant get in trouble for organizing an event
We should be raptor buddies
Just bought an Outlaw today! Looking forward to enjoying my $7K! To make all the heat 🔥 I got from the wife worthwhile!🤣🤣🤣
those outlaws are pretty cool, almost bought a new one when they came out.
It would definitely be a cool toy to have in the garage. Owning a more mainstream model is definitely easier when it comes to sourcing aftermarket parts
@@PeteHager are you tested polaris predator 500 troy lee edition
Excelente video brother saludos desde tijuana Mexico👌
Love the 525’s but sometimes they can be a little piece of work
such professional videos . id love to be able to make a channel like this for my 250r
Hey Pete you try twist trottle and if you don’t like it take it off
Yamaha all day
Good vid
These outlaws are bad ass. I have a 525s and it'll smoke traitor 700s and everything except built banshees and zillas. I have an 09 and I call it the bug because it looks like a bug
I like how on spiderlake part 1 i commented about Pete getting an irs like an outlaw and then he drives one 2 vids later
Jonathan Conrad haha I think I remember seeing that comment 😅 it was definitely a cool quad and it would be fun to have in the garage some day. I’ve always loved how they look too 👌
@@PeteHager one thing to keep in mind parts are scarce and very difficult to find sometimes, i might have to scrap mine because the rear drive is shot
Ooo is that a kfx 450 in the background........might have to give out a handshake to give that sucker a rip too haha
Luke Worrell I have an opportunity to ride a pretty stock KFX450 soon 😊👍
Love the vids #savesportquads
@peater Hager i live in northern Arizona and it is Rocky as hell and I and and o7 outlaw525 and with it being so Rocky and ruted out the outlaw really shine's when it gets nasty out and once you go to hydraulic clutch there's no going back on the trails
👏👏👏
Can't help but see that kfx tho!!
facts, i have 2 kfx450r's and also an 08 outlaw irs. i love them all lol
dope video bro!!
Got my pre-order🤘do you know when they will ship?
We’ll put in the order next Monday. Shirt production will be 2-3 weeks and they’ll ship right after. I would say 3-4 weeks maximum 👍
@@PeteHager damn that's a long time.
It is what it is. sorry, we’re getting the nicest quality T’s our local manufacturer provides. We sold out of our Florida T’s the first week so if you want to guarantee a shirt this is the only way.
@@PeteHager ok that's fine I was just wondering
Pete, did the outlaw have LEDs for the headlights? See 7:45 for what I'm talking about. I have one and I'm wondering where he got those bulbs
Nice ride review. Are these a good replacement for a "Aged Out" Yamaha Banshee owner?
Nice man! How did you like those flex bars?
The little bit of riding I did was very smooth. I think I would need to run them on my machine to really get a sense of how much they help. I’ve definitely been curious about them
You gotta try the straight axle version, it’s raw
Wanted to hear his thoughts on the Raptor.
Same here
Wow looks like a different but fun quad. I’ve grown up on only Polaris. I would like to try it out. I’ve never rode a sport like Polaris. How did you like it Peter?
I had a lot of fun on it! I wanted to keep riding it haha If I have the means to own one someday I definitely will, it would be sweet to have in the garage.
Pete Hager, that’s cool. I would love to try on out. My buddy has a raptor and I love the way it feels it’s a very comfortable unit with lots of power.
I have a ONE OF A KIND outlaw 525 irs
Did it make you miss your old ktm quad ?
Kind of. This thing is pretty unique and it's hard to compare them aside from the powerplant. The KTM is super narrow in the middle and it's very light. The guy who bought my KTM doesnt live far from me. I hope to go ride with them eventually and hopefully he'll let me take it for a ride again!
My first atv was an outlaw 90
Those are really cool mini quads. I love how they look
I have a 2008 outlaw with a vapor lcd screen I think that’s what it is
Early gang
nice videos
Have you been to AOAA?..I’m going there next weekend should be fun 5 hour drive..
Great video! Where is this one at?
Yo bro
I have that quad the exact one that’s how I found this video
Show the kfx
xur_X335 theres going to be some KFX content coming in the future but I didn’t ride that one in particular. I’m super excited to hop on one soon 😬👍
Man I wanna see some renegade videos like a ride review not chasing one
Where is corona
You probably won't see this. But if you do what was your opinion on the flexx bars? I just bought a pair and when I eventually finish my raptor (R1 engine off road build) I will have them on there and just looking for peoples opinions on them. Do you find it takes some vibration away?
I've heard nothing but good things about Flexx bars. I only rode the Outlaw for about 5 minutes so it was hard to really get a sense of how much they affected the smoothness of the ride. I know I would really see the performance if I had them on my Raptor since I'm very used to how it performs. I do plan on trying the Precision Anti Vibe clamps before trying the Flexx bar set up. Definitely comment again on a new video if you get them, I'd like to know your thoughts! 👍
@@PeteHager Yeah fair point kinda hard to compare to something you haven't ridden before. Well I have them here now so when I'm finished I will definately be commenting and letting you know further down the track! The person I got them through is a very experienced quad bike builder and he recommended the flexx over the anti vibe for a few reasons. Excited to see your review on the anti vibe aswell. Thanks for replying and absolutely love the content!
Hope to see you test out that kfx450r aswell
Sunday Sunday Sunday haha
Renegade Mike the maiden voyage 😅🤘
If your shirt was black or blue I'd get it.
You should ride the straight axle version in my option its a better feeling ride i just put a cam and a dune port on my 525 .. great video by the way . 🤙🏻🤙🏻
If I get the opportunity to ride a straight axle outlaw someday I definitely will! the 525 power plant is definitely a beast
hola Pete; que sensaciones tuviste manejando el Polaris 525? te gusto o no?
I have a 2008 Polaris outlaw ktm motor irs suspension. Just got it out the shop. Brand new motor and a few other things. Looking to sell
Have you ever ridden a kfx 700 all I have had is raptor 660 700 banshees and ltz 400 kfx etc .. I tried a kfx 700 and was shocked at how much of a smooth ride it gave and the power is right there with my friends 700 r ...this had jet kit and full exhaust point aim floor it and wheels up .... I was skeptical about it but after riding it I want one there is no bump steer and feels like you can run over anything and it will be minimal recoil .
I hopped on a KFX700 last year and it was a wheelie monster. I've never been on a quad that wanted to wheelie as bad as that one. They have lots of power but need help in the handling department a bit. They're super cool as well 👍
@@PeteHager I herd that putting Ella's on them is insane
Hey Pete
Hi, Pete more video bacause are motivation! ;) whats faster? Raptor or Polaris?
The raptor has more torque off the line but the outlaw pulls very strong later in the RPM range. It would be interesting to compare their performance in stock vs stock setting
@@PeteHager Thank you for your answer. The raptor is prettier :) hehe
Hey Pete how does the raptor compare to your ktm 525 and which do u prefer
The KTM was super nimble and easy to ride. The seating position was awesome and it was very fast off the line. With the stock gearing I would win most drag races up to about 70 mph. Raptors would tend to walk away from me after that. The Raptor is definitely a bit more sluggish in comparison but it's super comfortable and a blast to ride all day. The KTM requires a lot of maintenance and unfortunately the engines don't last very long even with constant oil changes
Gua imprisiont
I prefer the Preditors over the outlaws but man its a sick quad
Out of curiosity, why? The Outlaw 525 is everything the predator 500 is and more. They even have a straight axle available if you'd prefer that
What year is it? Are they still making them. Reminds me of work ATV axle setup.
Is a Honda TRX250X good for a 14 year old beginner?
Yes it is or a 300ex
Have you done any videos with yamaha blasters?
I haven't featured any blasters yet. I've only ridden with one and it was the riders first time on it so he was still getting used to the machine. I've ridden blasters years ago and they are so fun and nimble! Hopefully I'll get the opportunity to share one in more detail someday
@@PeteHager that would be awesome! I just bought one for a really nice price. I have to say it's a very cool quad and my first 2 stroke...I did not expect it to be so loud! Haha
