Well you gotta love the EFI. We had a few nights of -35C and just to see, I went out to my bike, hit the key and it purred like a kitten. My old Scrambler I would have been pullin my guts out cause the battery would have been to weak to start.

I love EFI.

I've been using my 500EFI off and on this winter and its great how when it's colder then crap it pops over and runs like it's a warm summer day. wish my predator ran that good in the winter.
I wish they would make the predator with EFI or better yet a Outlaw 525EFI

Yep, the EFI is the way to go in the cold climes. Starts up on the 2nd or 3rd chug every time. To get the ATP going I have to play with the choke and gingerly open it up. Usually take a good 5 minutes to get it to where it will idle with the choke open.
