2013 Polaris Sportsman 550 Polaris Pursuit Camo Features and Benefits
Hardest Working
ON-DEMAND TRUE ALL WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) – Still the best automatic 4×4 system out there, the AWD engages all four tires when the rear wheels slip and you need more forward traction. Reverts back to 2WD when you don’t.
Class-Leading 12″ Ground Clearance – With 12″ of ground clearance, clear bigger rocks, navigate deeper ruts, and go where other ATVs can’t.
Unrivaled 550 Engine – The liquid-cooled, single-cylinder 550 engine delivers smooth, efficient power and plenty of it for hunting and trail riding.
MAXIMUM POWER AND FUNCTIONALITY – With the power to tow 1,500 lbs. and carry a total of 360 lbs. on racks, plus the ability to accessorize in seconds with the Lock & Ride cargo system.
ACTIVE DESCENT CONTROL (ADC) AND ENGINE BRAKING SYSTEM (EBS) – Work together to monitor and control downhill braking to give you optimum control and smooth, even deceleration during descents (less than 15 mph).
HUGE RACK CAPACITY – Lock & Ride front and rear racks can carry an industry-leading combined 360 lbs and boast 100 tie-down points on strong, rust-free composite racks. Letting you carry all of your gear securely and easily.
Smoothest Riding
ANTI-KICKBACK STEERING – Placing the steering axis near the neutral center of the tire and having the long Dual A-Arm Front Suspension dramatically reduces kickback and minimizes rider fatigue that comes with jolts to the handlebars from trail and ground obstacles.
ERGONOMICS FOR YOUR COMFORT – With the engine rotated 90 degrees, riders enjoy 33% wider floorboards and narrow vehicle width at the knees and ankles. The narrower seat reduces leg fatigue and increases rider comfort.
LEGENDARY SMOOTH ROLLED IRS – 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 10.25″ of travel leading to a smoother ride and less squat during acceleration.
