My friend just got it today. He payed $2,800 for it and its still looks like brand new. Has aftermarket pipe, some engine work done, reverse disconnected (i dont know why?) and a nice pair of holeshots front and rear. All I can say is. Holy crap! This thing feels like it has more balls than my 2000 RM250. I am very impressed. I didnt think polaris made this kind of machine. The only thing I dont like about it is it kinda feels tippy. You sit up high. But, wow this machine is nuts. I think I know what my next ride is going to be.

I ride an 05 troy lee predator, it is the first year that has reverse. Yeah they have crap loads of power. You do sit up higher then a 400ex but I have never thought that mines feels tippy.

After you get used to it, the tippyness will go away. No reverse on that one. Very fast and fun to ride! What 'engine work' was done? The aftermarket airbox and K&N filter setup is a must if you've piped and jetted it already, but that kit is about $300, but worth it for the mods. It might have it already, is the airbox open?

Not really sure on the airbox being opened. I didnt get to look over the machine, I just rode it. I'll find out today.
