Thanks so much. I ordered the battery relocate kit through Amazon and the side panel fastener kit from Quad Logic. The battery relocate kit is coming by this week end and the other is on backorder. I got three of those fastener kits for each of my sportsman but one battery relocate kit for my white 570. I will get a relocate kit for my old blue ETX and new blue 570 once that is out of warranty. Thanks so much for doing this video!

Nordlander, it was a pleasure. I know you and I discussed this battery relocation several times and so far new location of the battery is absolutely fine. I don't know if you travel through high waters but it really would be nice if there was a drier location for the battery or if the battery could be concealed in the front compartment away from water. Of course, you then lose storage space. If you think of some way to totally enclose the battery, keep me informed. Best to you on installing the attachments. Note: When you get to the cable docking station, assemble and attach the battery cables onto the docking station PRIOR to attempting to attach the terminal docking station to your ATV. If you try to attach battery cables after you already installed the docking station, it's really, painfully difficult.

Very nice and informative DIY video! Sweet machine too :) Hope you have a great week my friend.

Hey Ray. Yep, the ATV is fun to ride and it doesn't get torture-test rides like my old Kawasaki Brute Force did years ago. I mostly used them to carry bags of 4 stacked bags of cement from one part of the land to the other. Heck, when I look back about 16 years ago I used to drag those bags of cement through the uncut wooded areas with a 2 wheeled hand-dolly. Now that was some torture but now I have better equipment to help with those tasks. Hope you're able to get some work done on your land where you'll build the cabin. Remember, I made reservations for one cabin room with a scenic view at your place. LoL Take it easy, Ray.

Thanks Shane. You know, the only reason I found them is b/c I was snooping around the internet for some way to relocate my battery which I was going to relocate to the upper-front compartment of the ATV. These latches sure do make it easier to get into the side compartments. BTW, in your Razor 1000, where is your battery located? Do you have concern for the battery being immersed in water, mud, and gunk? I like your bottom skid plate on the Razor (I think you have a bottom skid plate). Heck, maybe I've been watching too many different Polaris 1000 XP vids (ha). Take it easy.

@ShaneBurrell1

It's one of the best things I've done. I have had to inspect that center console a hundred times and it blocks all light in the shop and it's black plastic so very hard to get all the push pins out. The new fastners I can do quickly and on the trail so it's worth the install. The battery for the RZR is under the seat which releases with a pull strap. I have a UHW skid on the bottom. It's a slick thick plastic that really helps rocky riding since it will allow you to slide over rough stuff with no damage or friction.

Great Vid. Getting at the battery on a 570 is a pain. May want to look at putting terminal caps on at least the positive connections... I learned this the hard way. My model was a 2014 570, which just had a metal strap around the battery to hold in it in place. Battery came loose, and touched the positive terminal on the quad which caused my electrical system to catch fire. Not a fun day. Models a year later like yours has the metal holder... Guessing Polaris learned something too.

Roger that, NC Boyz. The kwik-release fasteners make side panel removal a whole lot easier. I almost lost the original plastic plug-ins several times pulling them out but we'll see how this holds up. As you could see, it's not too difficult to install these kwik-releases but....how long will they hold up? If the spring gets gunky and breaks, I can always revert back to the original plastic plug-ins and the rivet holes will never be seen since the outer panel is not drilled. good luck with your install. The whole process should only take 30 minutes but my riveting gun kept slipping and the stem would not break off. So I snipped the excess stem off and then ground down the sharp edge with a file.

Tyrrell, check this out. My grandkids were coming to visit pap-pap over Thanksgiving week and they ALWAYS love riding the ATV and guess what? The battery was completely dead. So I had to take out the old battery for a new one. Removing the battery was a matter of minutes compared to bending down, crawling on my knees, and squeezing between all the tight-fitted tubing just to remove the shield, then finally pull-out the battery...then the entire reverse order to squeeze a moderately heavy battery back into a tight spot before even attempting to reconnet the terminal cables....YIKES! It used to be a nightmare. I removed and replaced the old battery in a matter of minutes which was GREAT. I do NOT regret relocating my battery for one minute. Whomever originally designed the existing battery location definitely was not an ATV rider. Strangely enough, I only had to access under my ATV side panels one time. I'm so glad you're making the easy mods. Thanks about the mint ATV comment. The ATV just doesn't get ridden much any more since the grand kids, nephews, and nieces aren't around to take her out.

I'm in NC, Kap. Not too far from Marine Corps Base, Camp Lejeune. This is not where I was born and raised but my kids traveled throughout as I got PCS orders to numerous east coast duty stations. They're all grown up now. My youngest is soon to be 38. Hard to believe I was taking them out fishing and hunting as young tykes and now they're grown up and gone.

One thing you might want to keep in mind with that battery location is if you are ever mudding, you could short out the battery & electrical system if a bunch of mud cakes and connects the terminals. This is what happened on our electric buggy and one of our other machines. Guess that means when we go riding I'll go through the puddles and you'll have to go around them ??? LOL. Take care bud.

@houndsmanone4563

Ha, that was a good one, Kap. But if you remember, the battery was originally down low directly in front of the engine. A dumb place for it, I'd say. Personally I was going to relocate it up in the front glove compartment but opted not. I may have to if I get it slammed. My other ATV (Kawasaki) had it's battery directly under the seat high above the ground and I never had a problem. That's where Polaris should have placed the battery in the first place. So for now, you're probably right, I have a better chance of the battery shorting out.

@@houndsmanone4563 Honestly, I'd just make a small shield to cover it, plastic or heavy tarp could even work, just to cover the terminals, then you won't have to worry about it. Just looking out for you, cause it cost us some $$ for that one...

You know Kap, I actually was thinking about doing just as you mentioned.

I hate those plastic retainers! Mine are all beat up. I will be ordering both the retainer replacement kit and the battery relocate kit. I have three of these units. Even in 2019 Polaris is being stupid about where they have the battery. They haven't learned! Is there a place to hook the OEM battery hold down strap on the relocate kit.

What holds the battery down love the spot it's in good job

@houndsmanone4563

9 ай бұрын

First and foremost, thank you for watching and commenting. The battery uses the same original metal battery outer shield/box that was on the ATV. The battery also had a black rubber stretch cord with two "S"-hooks that stretched over the battery while seated in the metal box. So the original metal battery box and the original black stretch cord are still used to keep the battery from being jostled around while you're driving hills and trails. I simply love the new battery location. I have not had any issues. Since I made this mod, I've had to change out my battery (the old battery died). The new location made the entire process as smooth as a baby's behind. Bending down on my knee was much better than crawling or lying on the floor to accress the battery cavity. It was a nightmare changing a battery prior to the battery relocation. Thanks for such a great question, Rich E @user-et1bp5mn8x. I should have discussed the battery strap-down method during my original video but I just seem to forget stuff when making a vid. Have a fine week. 👍🏽🤠 9/21/23

Hope you got it, @2d40. Both of my cables were long enough for my 2015 Polaris, however, they definitely were not easy to bend when making a backloop. I hope you made a video and posted it, I'd love to view it. I learn from other folks vids, as well. For me, the whole process was physically tough since bending is an issue for me. That's why moving the battery was truly essential. Since making my video, my bending situation has only gotten worse. Just take care of yourself. As my Mum used to tell me "Health is Wealth". I'm now in my 70's and my body is like a Nestles Crunch Bar.... "hardly damaged on the outside but all broken up on the inside". After 28.5 years in the Marine Corps it took its toll on my old body.
