Does anyone have a PERSONNAL experiance with these 2 quads?????/SP96-00 have same steering design/. How much better the new steering design REALLY is?? I had SP 99 and I hated the steering. Considering selling my 660 Grizz.and buying 500 HO Special Edition.I've seen it Saturday at the dealer and it is just AAAAAAAWWWWWWEEESSOME.

I have a 99 Sportsman and my dad has a 01 Sportsman HO the steering is night and day difference the HO to me is like driving a completely different 4 wheeler everything I hate about mine was fixed in the HO including the steering.
My wife weights 105 pounds and could not handle my 99 Sportsman and my dads Sportsman HO she has rode for a full day following me with out getting sore.
