Unless you really need to save the money, I'd go with the SP500. I think if you go for the 400 you'll want more power down the road and wish you would have gotten the 500.

IM 99% a Bike guy and got the Sportsman just to have something My wife and I could ride together. We got a fair deal on the 04 400 so thats the direction we went. The 500 surely offers more power and such. If I had it to do Again I would go 500.
IM running a Heeclicker, k & N and Dynojet kit on the 400 and Im very satisfied with a top speed in the 55-60 range.
Either way, I feel like these are 2 of the most bulletproof motors on the planet and have stood the test of time.

Go ahead & kick out the few extra for the 500 HO. There is a rather noticable differance 400 - 500. You will not be sorry you went bigger but with the 400 will wish for the 5 eventualy.
