Default new 450 sportsman

I have a read in ATV Rider magazine that the new 450 has substantially more power that the previous 400. Otherwise it's basically the very same machine as the other machines in the Sportsman line except no EFI and no engine braking. In fact, they even went so far as to say the new 450 feels almost as powerful as the 500.

I've never really felt that my 400 was "underpowered"........it just didn't accelerate as quick as the big bore machines. Sounds to me like they twisted out a bunch more go juice from that engine. That should make the Sportsman 450 tops in that class of machine.
