i have a 2008 sportsman 500 non-EBS.can i upgrade to EBS by changeing the driven clutch or is there more to it?

 

I heard from my dealers service techs that you can add the EBS on. He said its a pretty easy install of the clutch system.

Cheers,

Both clutches and belt.

 

I think what you are looking for is called ADC, Active Descent Control. I'm pretty sure your quad has EBS which is rear wheel only Engine Braking System. I was soooo happy when they came out with ADC a couple months after I bought my X2....

 

You can add the EBS but right now with rebates and pricing I would look to get another machine.

You can get a 2009 800 for $5995.

 

I thought all new bike had EBS now?

 

The 500 HO carb still does not have EBS.

 

When they start that? My 2001 500 H.O has EBS and my friends 1998 500 H.O also.

From this Video all the EBS is, is a one way bearing on the Primary drive pulley.

My 2008 500 HO Carb is non EBS.

 

I know ebs was not offered on any 1997 models but in 98 Polaris put EBS on all there SP500 and on ward to a certain year, I guess at some point Polaris got cheap and decided to make EBS a option rather then standard issue on the SP500s in later years.
