2012 Sportsman 500 HO
Hello class, we just swapped out one of our Honda Rancher 400 4x4 for a 2012 Polaris Sportsman 500 HO. Currently it is sitting waiting for GSA registration tags for it so we can start riding it.
My question is what should I look out for as a new operator and hand receipt holder of this new ATV. Thank you.

After a month change the oil and check the diff and trans fluid. One of mine was low from the dealer.

yes check all fluid levels asap, my rear diff was really low when my850 was new, heard it whining, caught it in time, and if your not familiar with polaris, use low when under 10mph or pulling hard and you have to push yellow overide button for full power and awd in reverse, enjoy it and have fun, its got alot mopre oomph than the honda.
