Just to Clarify, the 455cc (400 Sportsman) And 498cc (500HO) are both Fuji, right??

 

Yes.

 

455cc also in 2006-2007 Sportsman 450(full size frame) not just the 400 sportsman
Just to make others informed.......Caper......

Fuji also made good camera film back in the day...LOL.....

 

Biggest reason I asked was because I am buying a 2011 400HO come spring. A friend lives in Northern Ontario, has a 2004.5 500HO, and it has started every time he has turned the key, whether it is -50c, or +30C.

Great cold starters, and he does not have a oil or coolant heater either.

 

Well I am in Muskoka and mine(2006 Sp 450) 455cc started last week with a overnight temp of -29 Deg. Cel
Did need to use the manual choke in cold weather But never had any issues .
Still with the factory Polaris battery from 2006 also.........Caper.......

 

Nice!! That is what I am looking for. You have a battery tender on it??

 

No tender they are in a detached garage (not heated) and I start them up usually every couple of weeks anyway, I take the garbage and recycling down the road with the Quad to the transfer station about 1/2 KM away so this keeps them used all winter.......But a tender is the way to go if they need to sit too long for sure.........Caper..........

 

They even started with this tempurature a couple of years ago...........

 

Sweet!! CDN Tire always have the CTEK Tenders on sale. May get one for next winter, in case I do not go out everyday.

 

And the 425 and 335. All the dry sumps. Same motors just different bores and strokes.
