Default new member - 2002 Polaris Sportsman 500 6X6

Hello all. Glad I found this forum, in need of a little help. Recently left decades of suburban life to live the dream - bought the wife and I a farm. It wasn't long before we saw the value in having a Quad for lots of the chores around here, but things being what they are I couldn't afford a brand new machine. One day I spotted an ad on Craigslist for a Sportsman 500 6x6 which looked perfect for my needs [more of a hauling machine than a racer] and looked to be in pretty good shape. As best I can tell it's a 2002 model [previous and original owner thought it was a 2001] and I'm having a few issues and am learning these things have a few "quirks" to them. Hoping I can get a little advice and many thanks in advance.

Welcome to the forums.

The 10th digit on the vin will tell you the year model. You can put in the number and check it here.
