[h=2]Polaris 850XP 2015 Parts , Whats compatible.[/h]
Just wondering what parts are compatable year wise.

My kid sister bought a new 850xp polaris and crashed the thing hard.
Insurance is giving her the run around and im wondering if its cheaper to fix it myself if i can find used parts.

she didn't bend the frame thank god. and all the rims are intact .

she broke the rear carrier/bearing on left hand & the spline on the front side left hand Hub
is stripped , the nut was there but no pin in it, it would seem the axles are both in good shape however aluminum gave way to steel. .

The speedo pod is cracked and i need to fix a wire or 2 that got yanked.

And front break caliper is probably hooped also.

Rear racks are bent rear rack plastic is broken also but fender plastic survived on bike somehow

Throttle lever is snapped off but throttle cable is fine. possibly broken inside the throttle pod also .

And handle bars on left side are bent into the tank so handle bar will obv need replacement.

Possible that the key is not working although it seems to just have popped apart will see how that functions with new working pod.

So basically the question here is what years of parts will work with a 2015 XP 850? all years of XP-850's or did polaris change things year to year?

I'd love to get her some used parts off say ebay, That has served me well in the past on saving some costs to repairing things , esp on the more expensive items.

Polaris will soak her on new parts and the insurance company is trying its best to get out of this so if things are easier or cheaper to just get used good parts then that's probably how i will advise her depending on how things work out.

thanks in advance for your replies/help.

I'm not very in the know on polaris workings so its a big help.

I'm guessing that most of the parts you need will be the same at least as far back as 2010 and others (like the POD) won't. Use the Polaris parts finder to look up the part number for the year you're interested in and check it against the 2015 model.

I did a quick check on a front brake caliper and both 2010 and 2015 had the same part number.

Good to hear.

Well i told her to take it slow and she didn't listen lol crusing so fast on that thing all the time down back-roads "esp in dark".

Ran it off a blind corner in the dark thank fully the barbed wires on the fence was laying in the grass or things would be a-lot worse for her.

As for the front hub the nut on the front hub "castle nut" backed off looks like which is why the axle spun on the hub stripping the aluminum.

But yea the pod got shattered it looks ok but i can see spiderweb on the glass inside " it is in one piece tho doesn't even look damaged" not sure how that glass cracked perhaps just flex on it.

but glad to hear lots of parts are compatible because used parts vs new from Polaris are not even comparable obv.

looks like im fixing another ATV.
