Default 04 sportsman 700 Vs. 99 Sportsman 335

A buddy of mine needs to sell his popo. He's looking to get $4500 for it. It's a 700 EFI with 400 miles and 90 hrs. on it that has never been in the mud. He just rides it in his yard. He keeps it in a heated garage waxed with a cover over it. I told him I might take a look at it. I mainly ride Wisconsin trails with the wife on back with my Dads 99 335. It would be nice to have another ride so that the wife can do her own motoring. It's kind of uncomfortable riding double all day on the current ride. Hows the 700 compare in size to the 335? Would there be a little more room on it when we did double up? I see a lot of rides with the AM 2up ( I know it's not really that) seats/armrest/storage gizmos. What's the most comfortable AM seat/2up setup for the 700?

as far power goes, theres no comparing the 2 bikes as there is that much moore and the easy start of the efi is even better. its a totally differnt generation bike as well w/ the newer style and awd system. i even think the seat might be a little bigger(not 100% sure) for 2 riders w/ out the back seat. the gas milage is going to be alot better on the 335 by far for sure and theres always the slight chance of having a failed fuel pump. at least you know the history of the bike which is a big plus. imo
