Polaris Sportsman Touring 500 ATV (2008-2013)

The Polaris Sportsman Touring 500, produced from 2008 to 2013, is a robust two-up ATV designed for comfortable two-passenger riding with its extended wheelbase and dedicated passenger features. Throughout these years, it was powered by a consistent liquid-cooled, 4-stroke, single-cylinder, 498cc or 499cc High Output (H.O.) engine, typically delivering around 35 to 36.7 horsepower. While the core engine remained stable, the model experienced notable evolution in its fuel system and chassis. Initially, the 2008 model featured Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI). The 2009 model year saw a transition, offering both EFI and carbureted H.O. versions. From 2010 to 2012, the Sportsman Touring 500 H.O. primarily utilized a carbureted system, though these years brought significant chassis and bodywork updates, including increased ground clearance, MacPherson front struts, and Independent Rear Suspension in 2011, followed by restyled bodywork in 2012. A key change occurred in 2013, as the model returned to Electronic Fuel Injection for its H.O. engine. Q: How do I know which parts fit my specific Polaris Sportsman Touring 500?
