Does anyone have or use the polaris service manual...The one they use in the shop to fix ATV's if so how good are they? Is cylmer the only other service manual on the market?

 

I have one i use for 425 and 96 500sp,some of the newer stuff has changed.But this still covers alot of it.Am getting new 500sp in spring I'll get another one then.Yes to me it's well worth it.Don't know anything about the clymer.

 

Like corncob2 I also have a shop manual that I use on my TB 250 and my brothers 400 sport. I don't know about clymer but it covers alot of material in pretty good detail. I feel it was worth it!!!!

 

Apparently the publishers of aftermarket repair manuals have given up trying to keep up with the yearly (and ½ yearly) changes Polaris makes. Can’t really blame them. The genuine Polaris shop manual is big, covers all models, is expensive and well worth it. It’s a 5 ring binder format that you purchase “supplements” for every year to keep it current.

Got my service manual the other day it's worth the money.
It is a Sportsman service manual, real big and thick it covers 1996-2000 Sportsman 500 and 1999-2000 Sportsman 335. It's the on the dealer uses and it seems to cover in detail all aspects of the sportsman

What did you pay for it the full service manual?

 

The shop manual (not Clymer, etc..) from the dealer is the BEST thing you can buy for your ATV. It tells you how to do anything, and how everything works.

My only complaint, still no '99 or '00 supplement yet. Anybody esle have one?

 

Tax and all it was about $70.00
