I just saw one of those for sale on marketplace in Wisconsin for $600. It was sold fast!

I had a 650 cc and ran paddle tires on the rear for snow. They lasted 6 years on a 140 acre mountain trail up to the deer feeder fields.

I used to have that same exact machine!! We built a fieldstone wall and had it so loaded down with rocks I had to put both my kids and wife on the front rack so I could steer lol! It was a go anywhere do anything Big Boss! I miss it and have thought about getting another. Great video!

The Polaris Big Boss 6x6 are brilliant machines. In the UK I have a year 2000 - 500cc petrol and an older 400cc Diesel - D-Bat ex British military. The Diesel has a 12v car battery in it so never any problem starting it and its air cooled. Both used for all the jobs you can think of on our small holding. The 500cc petrol is mega quick so you have to be super careful not to let your kids loose on it. Over the years I have purchased all the agri tools you might need to work off the two machines. My friends thought I was nuts when I first got the 500cc. Only saw it as a toy. They don't think that way now and like you, mine were non-runners when I bought them super cheap. Both were easy fixes.

For the style of battery you hate, use a small piece of fuel line or a doubled over piece of cable tie under the lead insert. Makes bolting leads on much easier and the inserts stay in place.

Those are great engines, something to look out for is the 2 stroke oil feed line from the front reservoir is pretty easy to snag and tear off when going thru brush, double check the way it is routed. Great video!

I’m pretty sure they make a spider web bungee cord top to put on that dump bed so things don’t bounce around and possibly hit u especially if a medium size stone bounces out!

Well it's been 40 years but finally I have an explanation to a problem I had. I had the same problem with a plate and needle on an XS750. I saw the hole so I thought the needle went through it but as you've shown the plate sits on top to hold the needle down. Bike ran like crap unless the throttle was wide open. One shop spent 3 hours trying to diagnose it but another fixed it in an hour. You're a legend!!!

Really cool machine! I remember the Magnum and Sportsman 6x6 that came later, but never realized they has a 2 stroke version too. It's a shame the ATV market in general has shrunk so much compared to what it used to be. Everything is the side by sides now, which are kinda neat too but cost as much as a small pickup used to.

I know that everyone needs a dump truck some times in their life .Cool toy

Great video, as always a learning moment. Vinny would say "Looks rough rough." As you cruised the field picking up rocks, reminded of fieldstone foundations in old farmhouses. IMHO someone needs to get a Japanese mini-truck

Those big boss's or sxs with no doors work better for picking rock IMHO because you aren't constantly opening and closing a door to pick the rock. Same goes for fixing fence where you are always getting out to pound a staple, putting a clip on a steel post, or tightening a wire. Japanese mini truck would be cool for a video though.

When we were kids on a farm my dad alway said “let’s go see a rock band at the farm”!! Once we got to the hey field with our big red Honda 3-wheelers we would fill up the rear rack and the front rack had a width 18x18lenth 18”tall wooden box . The once we set the rocks on the rear rack usually rolled off but we were young and liked riding so we kept reloading the ones that rolled off!! Haha

They made tracks for them because they don't go well in deep snow. A Buddy of mine used tracks in the winter

I like your idea of putting those rocks to good use. I collected rocks about the same size as yours and came across one that I could barely pick up. I couldn't lift it high enough to put in the bed of my F350. It had to be over 200 pounds because I can lift and press a little over 200 pounds in reps of 11. The rock was off white with a little yellow. It was rounded and smooth as if it had spent time in a river. I went back with a friend to help and it had been removed by someone else. I really want to know what it was made of, but I probably will never find out for sure. Made a large bbq out of the rocks I did collect. It sits where anyone who rides off-road can use.

Another nice job Bud!

i had the two stroke model with 4 wheels , i solved the hard shifting problem by merely adding a quart of DURALUBE to the transmission , smooth shifting after that

Nice tool to have in the garage ✌️

I had one of these but mine was a 425 version and I took off bed and made a small boom on back with a 2500 lb. winch that thing pulled a cedar log on level that was 18 inches in diameter and 3 eight foot long cedar logs . That thing worked perfect for that until a stick through the radiator stopped that ride after that got a small 1500D yanmar tractor.

You have 2- stroke motor that doesn't connect to the gearcase oil. So if gas was in the oil, it was put there or you have case leak.
