What's the difference 05/06
 

What are the major differences (if any) between a 05 sportsman 700 EFI and a 06 700 EFI. A dealer is over stocked with 05's and there offering a deal that's hard to pass up. Thanks

actually there are some changes:

-Smooth one-way drive clutch (similar to 800EFI)is now standard on 500EFI, 700 carb, and 700EFI models. - smaller hub design for improved low speed operation.

- Park lock removed on all Sportsmans. -no longer necessary to activate foot brake to shift between P-R; L-H. -1" longer shift lever for easier shifting. -rear foot brake action improved.

-cast aluminum rims added to 700EFI.

-avail colors: red/black with cast rims, green/black with black steel rims, black/silver with cast rims, or mossy-oak w/ black steel rims.

some neat new improvements if you ask me![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I have heard that the '06 has hydraulic lifters. No more valve adjustments. I do not know for sure though.
