hey my dad doesn't think this atv will have the power of a 500cc because he said the atoumatic
will make it suffer to a 350cc engine. now tell my dad what you think the power will be.

Tell your dad to take you down to the dealer, when they come in, and ride the 350 and the 500 and see what he thinks.

The auto tranny might put a little drag on the engine but it shouldn't be much. Also, the 500cc engine will have 4 valves instead of 2, this translates to more power.

well just look at the sp500, it is the most powerful atv out there now. and that auotomatic
doesn't make that suffer to much.

The auto doesn't make them have any less power. People are just misinformed.

Like the polaris belt slipping. The only reason they get water in them is because people don't seal them right after they take them off. Or some moron at the factory isn't doing his job correctly.
