I'm looking to purchase a DS650, but I haven't seem to be able to find anyone with one. My local dealership says the 04's are better than earlier models. Also, I'm planning a trip to the New Orleans Spillway an maybe there be some DS650 out there.

 

Most dealers are recieving 05 models and may be sold out of their 04's. I would recommend using the "dealer locater" off of the Bombardier website and calling around to dealers in your state. If you can find an 04 you should be able to get a good deal on it.

There were quite a few changes made to the 04 model that lightened them up a bit.
- 1" shorter aluminum swingarm
- narrower rear axle
- Aluminum upper A-arms (went back to steel on 05's)

 

Dont know how legit it is but there is a dealer in Missouri going out of buisness and he has quite a few 04s still. They are on ebay, like i said dont know if its legit or not but the prices are deffinatly good, right at that to good to be true edge but who knows.
