Hi guys,
Looking at a new 2006 AC FIS 500 manual shift.

Anyone out there can give me a list of pros/cons on this bike?

Much appreciated.

I have an 06 500 auto. The machine is great for most applications. It will not win a race but it can pull a 500 LBS rock out of my yard like no other. The GC is great, does great in mud. Heavy will hold its footing and great with a plow
The Cons, the Gas gauge isn't very accurate. Stock tires suck. Auto is about 50-55 mph with me at about 245lbs.

The 500 engine is bulletproof. it's a Suzuki design that's been around forever.

I have had no issues with mine either but I will have to agree the stock tires need to be upgraded. This machine at full throtle does not stop pulling at all...Just wants to go.. Great machine. I am glad I got it...
