I've got 3 words for this beast. Powerful and GAS HOG!! I got 37 miles out of the first tank of gas (snow and ice riding though, I'm hoping for a LARGE improvement in mileage when I hit more solid stuff this spring). I also have a 2004 Sportsman 400 and this thing (although it weighs about the same) feels a LOT bigger on the trails. The EFI is great in the cold weather. I've had it submerged right up to the gas cap more than once with no problems. It'll pull stumps one minute and then stand up on its rear wheels (with a little help from a rider weight shift). Overkill? Maybe, but it sure is fun.
Upgrades/Accessories: Front and rear brushguard/bumpers. Warn winch. Handuards. Beadlock rims.
