My 500HO came with the spanner wrench (thank god) but my 700 did not. As for Heavy Duty springs, you can use the heavy duty springs for the 500 on your 700. I have the heavy duties on the rear of both my 700 and 500 and they are a big improvement.

 

If you are looking for upgrades for the 700 go to your dealer and have him look up the part number of the part you want to upgrade and then have him search the polaris line as to where else that part number is used. most of the time i find that same part is used on another models. then you can go to the web and probably find an after market up grade product that will fit.(eg.) if the part number is the same for a sportsman 500 as the 700 then you know if you find that after market part for the 500, it will fit the 700. hope this helps. it has worked for me many times.

 

Thanks for all of the input guys, yes i have adjusted the rear shocks to their fullest, but the machine still squats with my big butt. I'll check into the heavier rear springs for the HO. (Mine didn't include the spanner wrench either)
has anyone tried the white spring in the clutch yet? Anyone in the states got one of those elusive front bumpers?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]
