Polaris Sportsman 550 EFI - Green

Polaris Sportsman 550 EFI - Green

The 2012 Polaris Sportsman® 550 ATV is engineered for extreme off-road performance. Ideal for trail riding, hunting, and is the perfect Utility ATV. For 2012: new gauges, tyres and more. Key features are:
•550cc SOHC EFI Engine
•Rolled Independent Rear Suspension (IRS)
•Superior Ergonomics

Years of innovation and relentless tuning have refined the ride to a level unmatched in the industry. Rolled Independent Rear Suspension (IRS) angles the shocks rearward for a smoother ride and less squat during acceleration.
Enough power to tow 1,500 lbs. (680 kg) and carry 360 lbs. (163 kg) on the racks, plus the ability to accessorise in seconds with the Lock & Ride cargo system.

With the engine rotated 90 degrees, riders enjoy 33% wider floorboards and narrower vehicle width at the knees (3.25″ / 8.3cm) and ankles. The narrower seat reduces leg fatigue and increases rider comfort.
The Sportsman 550 EPS is powered by a gasoline 550cc single cylinder 4-stroke engine with SOHC and 4 valves.
