POLARIS 800 SPORTSMAN Off-Road Trail Review: Most Under Rated Big Bore ATV?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 сен 2024
- This ATV may be one of the most overlooked monsters in the industry. The Sportsman 800 has massive power with a twin cylinder power plant and brings it to earth with a quick CVT transmission. It literally rides like a Cadillac, has massive ground clearance and yet doesn't feel top heavy. It has 4x4 drive system that truly puts power to ALL four tires. The 800 Sportsman left the Polaris ATV Scene in 2014, but good used ones are still out there. Check out more info at www.everythingatvutvreviews.com
Most underrated big bore 4x4.
Agreed
Everything ATV-UTV-Reviews I’m glad it is cause the used ones are usually around $2,900-$3,000
Franky Alvarez where are you finding them for that?! I’ll take 2! I’ve been seeing beat up/not maintained ‘08 ish 450 for more than that. Cheapest 800 I’ve seen was almost double that! Wherever you are they have better prices lol.
@@atvdirt1 you think this will be good to ride in Arizona desert mostly flat areas
How is the channel growing my friend? You definitely have one of the best review channels out there!! Jumps , hills and mud just great keep them coming. Great skills. Going to do a shout out vid in the near future and will add your channel to the list CHEERS!!!
Appreciate that Gearz and we will keep new things coming. We have grew considerably since starting, but still have much much work to do!
Always room to grow=)
eh TV didn’t expect to see you here love your videos
these 800s are amazing value an yes underrated
My buddy has one and I am very impressed with it.
Why did they quit making it?
Mike, thanks for the comment. As for why they stopped production... I'm
not certain of their official reason, but following the money is common
sense. The industry is certainly trending toward bigger displacement
engines and the increase in the 570 may be enough to help sell more.
From what I've heard the newer 570 engine is made by a different
manufacture than the 500. We've not tested a 570 yet, but one buyer for
the 500 we tested stated that his 570 fouled plugs and he was
considering going back to the 500. Remember the 500 was fuel injected
prior to the later year models. Having ridden with many fuel
injected 500's that were bullet proof, was going back to a carburetor
on the latter models just a way to save money or help promote the fuel
injected 570? Just some fuel for thought!
Drove it everywhere never got stuck.
I've taken my 2006 Sportsman up some gnarly trails. if you want to see my number one look up uphill climb. I love Polaris.
You suggest this year and model? Family giving me a deal from an estate sale on 2006.
great test video. it would be nice if the 800 stayed around in the value series of polaris value atv line up. hence the next step would be the 850 twin non SP. Should be next also...
I use to have a Polaris 90 sportsman. That little fucker was a champ.
Man I really want one of these beasts. I’m looking at a 2014 for a good price, maybe ‘too good’. Anything to look out for??
I'm not a Polaris fan, but that does look like a good 4 wheeler.
Still have a couple more manufactures to ride and review in the lightly used ATV market, but very impressed in the performance of this 800 Sportsman. In the mid 90's I rode with several Polaris guys and they were always tearing up. Polaris has came a long way in a short period of time!
Everything ATV-UTV-Reviews I feel more and more that Polaris has improved leaps and bounds over the awful ATV's they made in the 90's. I always wonder why they stick with the struts up front for all these years.
I have the same one and I love it
nice review,thanks!
Thanks for the comment!
Trying to find out if the guage on a 2012 800 cc Polaris Sportsman displays hrs or miles driven. Also does it brake well without the engine brake system feature. Info would be helpful please.
Yes, it should have both miles and hour gauge. It brakes fine without the engine breaking. Thanks for the comment!
@@atvdirt1 Thanks for the info! Helps a lot. 👍 Gauge is showing 1250, but was told it is miles and not hrs. Good thing cause that many hrs would be quite a bit of miles as I was told by the Polaris dealership, not sure how to break it down,
but I know he was really trying to get me to buy a brand new one.
to buy a brand new one.
Brute force or this? What is the downfalls to each?
Kountry Quads great question. The Sportsman rides smoother, although the Brute Force definitely has more get up and go. The 650 Brute is not fuel injected although the later 750 is. Both are fun capable atv's, don't think you could go wrong with either...
Guess this one also makes that crazy annoying noise from gear box... great video tho
fmxinsane they all do it even my 2017 570 does it doesn't bother you after a while.
Yeah Brute Forces diff have more power but I think the 800's are the better atv? Just my opinion. I've rode both a lot. Sportsman's diff have better ride and command.
I want its parts from where i can get them
What tire and wheel setup are you running?
Johnathan, these are the Blackwater Evolution by ITP on factory wheels with spacers in the front. Here is our review on them ruclips.net/video/ZVpWWRquO4s/видео.html
