Dealer just called and said he is getting 7 new quads in this afternoon. I've got my fingers crossed because he doesn't know whats on the truck and I want the "i". If the "i's" not on the truck....grizz it will be.

 

You can probably uncross your fingers. I've been looking for the "i" models too, but have been told by two separate dealers that they won't be released until September. It seems they want to deplete the current supply of 500's and 400's first.

I had the chance to ride both an "i" model and a "standard" model with the ACT independent rear at a local GameFair event a few weeks back, and I honestly could not tell the difference in ride quality. It looks like the only advantage to the "i" models is a little more than an inch in clearance, and some extra travel on all four corners. If your riding style takes you over many logs, rocks, and such, this might be important. As it is, it appears even the "standard" models have more clearance than anything anyone else makes.

I put money down on the 400 4x4 (standard) model. For my style of riding, "lost" inch of clearance won't make any difference.
