Boy you can’t beat the background at the beginning of the video. Trees among rolling hills. Gotta love it

[@Lalaafastroli]

Seriously…absolutely beautiful

[@hawkman302]

This is why a lot of older machines are still being ran. Very reliable and easier to work on when compared to today’s over engineered plastic.

Rock found your Chanel and LOVE the content. Please post more often. Even a Tri-pod is great. 😊

[@rockspowersports]

Thanks, Glad you found the channel and are enjoying it!

[@huntingwisconsin8877]

Rock I work on small engines at a Deere dealership and I learn so much from your videos, you are so good at explaining everything. Thank you for the great content 👍🏻

[@rockspowersports]

That’s great to hear! I’m glad you enjoy the videos and learn from them.

[@markbuck9299]

Nice to see your making more videos !! I have learned a lot from them

Thanks! I'm glad you're learning from them.

Evening rock glad to youre doing alright. Have a great night. Thanks for teaching me how to work on these I always love learning hands on like this. Thanks again

Hey Jonathan, thanks! Glad to help.

Got a question for you on a eiger 400 has updated flywheel and stator and still has no spark

[@thefarm1201]

Your a very smart person I like watching your videos

[@PedroLuis12128]

Love it! Keep up the good work!

[@Kingsoupturbo]

Nice diagnosis on the hot start issues, I"ve read the 570 power is well matched to the gearing and it feels really spunky.

[@rockspowersports]

Thanks! And yes these 570’s will surprise you.

[@deiluxx]

Rock i used a dremel with a cylindrical diamond bit and ground down my buckets until it was perfect. It was easy and it saves you a few bucks👍

[@WBOS72]

I agree on the eps being too light. My friends 16 570 felt the same, scary on the road. My 23 570 eps has multi select eps, medium setting is perfect. Thank you.

[@adrienfortin4411]

Great video when I need to do mine ill watch it again and probably again lol

[@rockspowersports]

Haha sounds good.

[@barrybroderick5103]

Great vid 👍🏻

[@markcollins5026]

Man, nice make sure it has a NGK sparkplug in it !

[@runeleon]

Check the cables to the intake sensor, its a known fault on some years of 570. The cables get brittle and break. Had the same problem on My 2018 X2 570 with intermitten hard start problems when warm. My dealer did a timing chain and adjuster replacement and adjusted the valves. Did not fix my hard start. But when i checked the cable to the sensor, 2 of the wires was broken inside the cable and could Just pull out.

[@rockspowersports]

Thanks for the tip, I’ll certainly check over those wires!

[@thefarm1201]

Wonder if that’s what’s wrong with my 2015 etx once it warms up it doesn’t start as good

[@thefarm1201]

Another thing it hates when you let the fuel pump cycle if you crank the key right away it’s starts great

[@SweLaris]

Wohoo! More Polaris content!

[@rockspowersports]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@MegaWildweasel]

You may want to add some 1/4" hardware cloth over the entrance and exit to the clutch cover. it will stop the mice. ( had to do that to my trailboss 250)

[@clayton8465]

Nice work.

[@AZTech25]

Way to go polaris on making a simple valve adjusment 10 times more difficult than it needs to be. Why i love my hondas

[@gabrielalvarez9570]

That is a headache when you have to wait for the shims to arrive.. I have a setup at my shop with my milling machine where i can grind that shim evenly, I know people are going to say " You can't do that" but i haven't had Ny problems with it.. I've checked shims after mNy miles and no problems

[@zekez1304]

if you could find one id like to see you do a video on a 2002 yamaha ttr250

[@ethansengineering911]

Hello can you show things like the fluid changes in the tire changes next time just a suggestion though thanks

[@chrisplace3024]

Hi from Milton Vermont

[@andrewinsinga2993]

I am wondering why you don't use a belt from polaris? It seems everyone says aftermarket don't last

[@rockspowersports]

Some machines I’d definitely recommend oem but these 570’s are not hard on belts so the Dayco should last along time. It all comes down to what the customer wants to spend.

[@EricMiller-x7q]

Hey how many turns is the pilot jet on a bombardier 500 I can't figure it out

[@Leo-vw5xw]

Which do you think is better, a 1997 honda fourtrax 300 or a 1997 articat Bearcat 454

[@johnschreiber3796]

The cylinder and piston are cheap so of it's burning oil, I'd replace that while doing the head. I have a 20 with the same milage and that's what I did.

[@rockspowersports]

That’s actually what I’m doing right now. The owner decided they didn’t want to wait until next year and they said while you have it you might as well get it done right.

[@cowboydan86]

I think I’d be getting out my Dremel to make some clearance. Lol

[@rockspowersports]

Just don’t take off too much..

[@paulbudford]

Good old Polaris. Why charge the customer for some shims. When you can sell them some buckets too

[@ryanyoung3539]

It'd a polaris my guy lol great videos tho

[@jonahdedam7011]

Are you able to fix a engine thats collasped both sides? 850 engine from polaris sportsman highlifter edition. Took it to a dealership and they said its on the verge of seizing and quoted me $10,000 to replace the motor

[@rockspowersports]

Not sure what you mean collapsed on both sides but it doesn’t sound good. A brand new oem long block from Polaris is $6300 a remanufactured engine can be had for around $4300. Between new oils/ filters and shop supplies and labor to do the job it should be under $1000. So I would say that $10,000 is a pretty high quote.

[@jonahdedam7011]

​@@rockspowersports oh i live in canada, new brunswick. Maritimes region. I really enjoy your content and thanks for sharing. The dealership told me it was no point in trying to repair or rebuild the engine. But i dont have 10g's for a new motor. Was hoping it would been able to repair it cause dealerships just want money. And i just bought it last year. Its 2023 polaris sportsman 850 high lifter edition

[@rockspowersports]

Oh so your talking Canadian dollars, then $10,000 is actually no to unreasonably for a brand new engine and have it installed. Unfortunately when those 850’s cranks go bad they usually take out the crankcase and usually it’s not cost effective to rebuild. It really all depends what happened in there. Did they actually pull the engine out and disassemble it?

[@jonahdedam7011]

​@@rockspowersportsthey just did a quick diagnostic check. Did a quick job i think and i didnt want to run the bill sky high. They said they could look deeper but would cost more. They told me that it was on the verge of seizing and that it had collasped both ends....which i dont know what they mean by that.

[@jonahdedam7011]

​@@rockspowersportsand how it happened was running a dry engine. I never checked the oil

200 bucks to adjust all the valves definitely never buying a Polaris. That's what I paid for my moto4 350.

Is there a way to remove the plug on a 2009 Polaris 500 ho without taking off the gas tank.....

[@rockspowersports]

Yes you can but it’s very tight! Usually I take my spark plug socket, set it in the plug hole and use a wrench to turn the socket… a ratchet won’t fit with the socket.
