Well I'm 6'2" and the Kodiak fits perfectly. It works best for me because I ride tight trails and need the smaller footprint. It has plently of power and the locker has saved me more than a few times. In 2 wheel drive it is very easy to turn which I would think would make it easier for a girl to ride a longer time.

Now if they would just put EFI on it..it would be perfect!

Your first post said it was the best with no mention of it being "true", not to mention this from another topic---"AC has the best front and rear irs you can get. Also, 10" travel"

Could of fooled me...

hey pass it down this way!



i have to say, if your going to get a Sportsman 500, get the EFI version, there were a few problems with the fan not coming on and the motor rattleing and the engine dieing. but i havent seen any complains on the forum yet or heard any. not to mention it'll make starting up in the winter alot easier on your wife [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I agree with Spyder.. Get the Sportsman EFI, by far the best 500 Class machine. It offers the most features and is greatly priced, been around forever, go for it, you wont regret it.
