Check out this spy photo of the new Desert Sportsman that Polaris is considering. A little heavier than the current Sportsman, but not by much [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img].

I've never been a fan of utility machines, but this is a machine I would buy. Even if it is "slightly" heavier than the standard Sportsman, the 25mm Bushmaster cannon would make my day!

P.S. Are they going to offer a 30mm cannon and TOW missles as an option?

Mike

Knowing Polaris R&D, they would offer it with a slightly less powerful engine and bold new graphics and call it a new model. The 30mm chain gun would be nice, but I think the 25mm would get adequate respect on the trails[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] .

Typical Polaris, no MX ability what so ever.
Should do real well in a pull off though.

What do you mean no MX ability? I bet if he really wanted too, he could win every race. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
