Early year 98 Sportsmans did not have EBS. Although you could buy it for around $200 as a accessory.
The 98 has no CV joints on the rear drive shafts. The 02 does have CV jounts.
The 02 has turn key ignition like a automobile 98 has push button
The 98 does not have electronic spedometer like the 02 does. The 02 has hour meter.
The 02 has the Scrambler High Output motor the 98 has the standard 500 Motor.
The 02 has roller bearing steering 98
I'm sure I have left out some minor items. If I think of anything else i will post it.
