silverado, My dealer has one ! I've seen it started it and drove it! My guess is polaris is trying to help the dealers off load there leftovers.

The SP500HO started here. They are following my lead. It sure took them long enough to figue out a good thing. Now only if they would do the same with their lousy stock clutching and EBS.

The Sportsman 500HO is just supposed to be a rumor until August 15th. Most dealers that got them already took them out though.

Some of the dealers that got them don't want to open them because it would be too easy to sell (same MSRP as old ones), when they still have non-ho Sportsmans to sell.

No offense, but I don't think they were following your lead at all.

blasterguy, H.O. stands for high output. Bigger cam, 40 instead of 34mm carb.Also stands for Honda Outrunner!
