Default what is the difference of 04.5 500 HO and 05 500HO

Does anyone know besides the looks, what is the difference with these 2. I heard the clutch is different on the 05, has the team roller or something like that. Is it faster and is it built tougher too.

Any more info, would be great.

The differences are the longer travel front suspension on the 05, revalved rear suspension for softer ride, 3/4 wider A-Arms, reduced feed back throught the bars, improved steering, Front cargo box, working lights on the rear, Larger cargo box on the rear, Small receiver hitch, Brighter lights, and thats about it. I don't think anything in the clutch was changed. They do ride about 10 times smoother then the 04.5s

All the 05's have the team roller, the clutch that that the 04.5 700EFI had, and for 06 I was told that all the machines are going to have the 800's clutch and belt which is better even yet.
I new about the cosmetic stuff, but thought there was maybe some more internal tweeks done.
