Do the sportsman 600,700 and 800 use the same frame?I just want some info on these legendary handling machines,being an avid polaris fan I just want to know.Also is the 600 a twin?Does the 500 use the same frame?Do the x2 500 and 800's use the same frame?

 

on say like the 04' to 07' i think there all the same frame, except they dont the 600 any more. basicly the 400 up to the 800(not 100%sure) use the same basic frame. not sure about the x2 as its a longer frame i do beleave. imo.

 

Was the 600 a popular model?There is was only one on ebay for sale.

 

My 600 has been a good machine it is easy on gas (very simmalar to a 500) very smooth power (twin) never have had any issues other than the rear brake brake master cylinder kept loosing its prime needeing replacent at 200.00 a pop.

The only upgrade I wish the 600 had is EFI as it would help tremendously with cold start ability! I also use mine for plowing snow all year long and it works good for that pourpose. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

The twins use a different frame, mostly noticed in the front end components, and where the rear gearbox is. The twins have a seperate gearbox with a driveshaft unlike the single slugs, which changes the rear part of the frame.

 

The 800s what is top speed.The kawasaki 750 toped out at 80 atv mag said.

 

Top speed will vary per machine, not sure why, but I would guess a average for a 800 with a 175 pound man would be 75 mph, maybe more.
