Nice Machine!
By Ken (I am an Owner) on Mar 02, 2018I purchased this Cat 500 EFI, actually 442 CC's.., I like the power, ease of maintenance, oil change's are a breeze, spark plug easy to get at. I have a bad back and this machine has a great ride & doesn't bother it a bit.., I did have a code fault (PO 500) which ended up being the speed sensor after ... some voltage meter trouble shooting, took less than 10 minutes to replace. I am a large dude and this buggy fits nice!

so-so...
By Jeff (I am an Owner) on Aug 07, 2014Bought this atv for property maintenance and for my son to ride. It's definitely a work horse. Doesn't steer well in loose gravel. It wants to push the front tires straight in 2wd. Still does it a little in 4wd but is better. Has issues with the electric engage of 4wd. Sometimes will continue to ... cycle as if it isn't in 4wd. I can load a 26gal sprayer on the back rack. It makes the front light but not unmanageable. 4wd is needed for better steering when the rear rack is loaded to its listed weight limit. A pod light up front and some rear lighting would make the night riding better. Motor seems noisy, more than most anyway. Over all, it's good for work but so much play. Would make a decent open road atv but turn radius keeps it off the trails.

OK till it flips
By Robert Castleberry (I am an Owner) on Mar 05, 2014I cant follow a Honda!Ill trade up.Just did a ride in the mountains and thank god for a Honda. My bike did well except in deep water with big rocks and climbing was scary. went up a hill coming off lake bed and the front wouldn't flop over hill top. flipped on 3rd try. Had to grab front rack at the ... top to pull it over. Honda and Yamaha rock. I traded to see the difference. Wow Honda rules in over all expectations.Center of gravity is to far back on arctic cat
