Come on guys... Let's not hijack the thread... It's about the Sportsman 500 EFI... Remember?

I too am hoping for an EFI 500... Haven't heard too much other than what I've read in online forums, and certain "other" publications.... [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Can't say for sure though... [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I'm hoping they make it too. Not that I'll be buying one immediately because I'm real happy with my current ride which only has about 600 miles or so.........but in a couple of years.

I think the Sportsman 500EFI would be about as ideal a quad as it gets. Sportsman suspension, plenty of power, EFI for excellent mileage, cold temp/altitude operation and no fussing with a carb.

I can see myself in one of these sometime down the road. Maybe a Camo this time[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I'm curious how the price structure will shake out. The 600 will be gonzo so that will change the price structure for next year. I'm guessing the 500EFI will start at $7000/$7200 essentially stepping right into the price slot left by the 600.

Will they fuel-erect the Sportsman 400 too?........I think not.........keep the price down as the "entry-level" Sportsman. But I can also see the 400 getting a price bump do to the 600 departure.

I believe that within the next 3 years we will see the majority of 400cc and bigger machines all having EFI mostly due to polaris and suzuki's success with their current ones. I would love to see the kawie 750v-twin in an EFI.
