What's your take on the 2002 polaris sportsman 400? I'm thinking about buying one for $2700 Only aftermarket is a winch. It has 196 hours on it...

All I've ever owned is Honda, so not sure about the Polaris 4x4 ATV's...

your thinking of the 08' sportsman 400 HO that has the 455 cc engine. the older models (to me anyways) are a little under powered. i would buy a 500 if you could find one. imo.
