Default 2009 Sportsman 500

Hello OPT,
Got a question involving an '09 Sportsman 500. Is this model fuel injected or carbureted? Is there any quirks, problems etc. that have seemed to plague this model. Found one in seemingly good shape from an older owner that hasn't been abusing it. Also,, is there a guide or list anywhere online to show models specs. and so forth broke down or listed by years size and the like?
Thanks as always for your help!!!
