400 Sportsman - Got one ? Had one?
Have had my 400 for about 4 months now with almost 50 hrs. on it It is a great riding machine but the power is lacking I had this one at my uncles ranch last week and we rode with there 425 magnums and it just flat left them like they were standing still. Only prob. I have had so far was set up for hi altitude it was a complete dog until the clutched it and rejetted for altitude.
Good luck

400 Sportsman - Got one ? Had one?
I just got a 2004 Sportsman 400 today. So far I've driven it about 12 miles, and I haven't had any problems what-so-ever. I topped out at about 45-50 mph on a level gravel road (with AWD on - haven't tried it yet with it off). The ride is really comfortable, and it accelerates relatively quickly. While I was driving along in the ditch beside the road, I got down in this low spot by mistake, and tried to back out. On the first try my wheeles spun because it was rather steep. On the second try, I held down the over drive button, and I backed out of it like it was nothing. I would recommend it - it's a really solid ATV.

I would have to agree with anchorman. I recently purchaced a 500 h.o. over the 400 because of the power to weight ratio. extra money was well worth it. I love the machine so far. It has plenty of power and will go faster than a quad of this size really should be going. topped mine out @ 58 mph. If you buy make sure you get the 04.5 it has a lot of improvements over the 04's, unless the dealer is willing to give you an unbeatable deal on the 04 (many100's less).
Hope this helps and enjoy the ride.
