2022 Polaris Sportsman 570 | Break In Service

[@utahwanderlust700]

Loved the video and your sense of humor.👍 One thing you might want to start doing is loosening the fill plugs first before you drain the oils. That way, if the plug is too tight or is stripped, at least you can still run it because there's still oil in it. And "W" does not mean "weight". It means "winter".😉

Great video. One of the better videos that explains it all. Nice job

[@Nick912OK]

Dude that oil filter is incredibly tight. I tried for 2 hours and had to give up until i can get another tool to attack it (filter pliers)

[@DDrenegade6632]

Really enjoy your videos! I appreciate the realism you show when you do stuff. No need to edit out how things truly go as they happen to us all!

[@EwenRoberts-o8o]

Will you did a good job my friend on changing the oils and checking it all over. Cheers.

[@chrisjonesbrack3t]

Thanks a ton for this video. First service on my wife’s 570 was much smoother thanks to your video. I didn’t have a ball end Allen wrench and that was the key to getting that gear oil fill bolt out!

[@goodjerm]

On the other 570 with the winch I had to remove the winch and bumper to get to it. Still not bad though. Glad you found it useful, thanks for watching and commenting!

[@xexesiska]

Nice rewiev! Was scary about you when you was putting wheels back!

[@rosseowens]

Great video. I would have checked the wheel bearings. Ive heard Polaris skimps on the grease there.

[@jacobsponsel972]

😂 love it bro I just got my new 2024 570 just wanted to see you do all the good stuff first great job on that

[@goodjerm]

Congrats on the new family member!!!

[@tonybahama6817]

Links to RockyMountain appreciated. I’m enjoying your videos as we’re about the same age and interests 👍🏼😎

[@goodjerm]

Glad to hear and thanks for the compliment! It really means a lot!🙂

[@manuelsalgado8510]

So , is the rear differential the same as the transmission oil change?

[@goodjerm]

@@manuelsalgado8510 yes, the rear is part of the transmission on these rigs so there isn’t a separate gear case for the rear, only the transmission.

[@manuelsalgado8510]

@@goodjerm got it , I was so confused, thank you

[@RC.56]

Thanks for the video, about to attempt the front drive fluid. Is there anything to grease on the bike? Is there any wheel bearings or anything else that needs to be greased? I bought a used 23 trail, 80 hours on it. Inside of the wheel hubs are slightly rusted, assume that’s normal.

[@goodjerm]

@@RC.56 not much to grease on these newer units. I think the u joints and slip joint in the prop shaft is about it. A little rust inside the hub carrier is normal, but I would keep an eye on it. When washing just make sure to get all the water out (probably the cause of the rust). Wheel bearings don’t need attention for quite a long time unless there’s a problem. If you have a winch it will be easier to do the front gear case if you remove the winch.

[@RC.56]

@@goodjerm I do have a winch, and that’s why I had not done it when I did the transmission and oil, couldnt get to it. need to look up the process of removing that, wheels off? Anything to do with suspension? Do the shocks get old or need to be adjusted for weight like a standard dirtbike. Also, mine has been sitting for eight months since I’ve done the oil/tranny. Wonder if I should do it again soon.

[@goodjerm]

@@RC.56 winch and front brush guard aren’t too hard to get off and out of the way, just the mounting bolts. Transmission shouldn’t need another service for quite a while, but is probably a good idea to do the engine oil and filter. Suspension should be fine, I only increased the spring preload on mine due to the weight of tools and gear I carry (and the winch is heavy too)

[@mikeknox1914]

If you remove the seat you will see the engine oil fill cap is on top of the engine!

[@Loghrym]

Did you have extra problems getting to the demand drive fill plug w/ your atv with a winch? I stripped my plug trying to get it out using a 8mm allen (I didn’t have a ball end allen). Was able to get a T50 to break it loose and get it out. $48 for a new plug🤬, then couldn’t get the angle to get it started to get it back in due to the side winch plate until I tried a torx again and it had enough play to get it started then switched to 8mm. Wish I’d seen your video first.

[@goodjerm]

So that’s actually a long story. The day I chose to do this it was 110 in the shop and I was under a bit of a deadline to get them both done. I started with the premium which doesn’t have a winch, it was a little awkward but as you saw not too bad. By the time I got to the trail that has the winch I was exhausted and suffering from a bit of heat exhaustion (not joking, I wasn’t feeling well) so I didn’t film it. I ended up having to remove the front brush guard and the winch. It wasn’t difficult at all but made the access much, much better. It t maybe worth a follow up video but at the time I was literally about to pass out. Couple of things I’ve learned from this. 1- film everything, regardless how tired you are (within reason). 2- don’t take your health for granted. I know that more than answered your question, but wanted to give the full story as to why we didn’t see that process with a winch in the way. Thanks for watching, I appreciate it very much!

[@Loghrym]

Thanks for the reply. Seems like whenever I decide to do a project on my own, things always turn to crap. So I appreciate you taking the time to film and explain how you are doing things. And the expressions and comments you add make it down to earth and relatable to the average garage mechanic. Using your video for light bar installation now, just waiting on the wiring harness, got 12” bar mounted today.

[@goodjerm]

@@Loghrym glad someone has found my silly content at least slightly useful lol. Thanks for the feedback!

[@mdkrush]

Thanks!

[@againstmywill23]

Learned a little and got a few laughs. How do you keep it so clean?

[@goodjerm]

The video or the quads? lol. For the quads I use chemical guys wash and a foam cannon. For the videos, well, a lot of editing.

[@againstmywill23]

@@goodjerm The quads but the editing is clean too. It’s crazy hot where you live apparently. 97 in the workshop is too much.

[@JimColeson-o8m]

what type of cleanging spray did you use when spraying the oil spill on th 4 wheeler

[@goodjerm]

@@JimColeson-o8m just brake parts cleaner, or as I like to call it “shop grade windex”

[@JimColeson-o8m]

@@goodjerm thanks man, I enjoyed the videos, helpful, especially when you put some personality into it

[@ah6441]

We say 4 wheeler here in Nova Scotia Canada. Great videos keep up the good work.

[@goodjerm]

Yeah man!

[@scourge8097]

@@goodjerm In Wisconsin, we say 4-wheeler...which doesn't really make much sense as...almost all vehicles have 4 wheels, but...that's what I was taught!

[@goodjerm]

@@scourge8097 I have added this to my list, thanks for the comment and for watching!

[@scourge8097]

@@goodjerm Thank YOU for these videos. I'm gonna take it in to get it serviced the first time, but I feel much more confident about doing the services in the future. It looks so much more simple than I thought.

[@JoshuaYarger]

What Jack stand do you have the four wheeler on?

[@goodjerm]

It was on a Pittsburgh atv lift, but I don’t blame the lift. It probably fell because of the blocks of wood I used to make it lift higher, and the wood moved. Completely my fault.

[@JoshuaYarger]

Thank you! We've all been there haha. seems handy to have around though@@goodjerm

[@ronnyarias4827]

I don't know how he can say that you will spent almost a thousand dollars on the first service. There is another video where someone is doing the first service and does not mention or make any valve adjustments and if you do it yourself which is quite easy it will not cost even 200 dollars in oils and fluids unless you pay 800 dollars for labor.

[@MikeDzoh]

Nice one
