Polaris Launches Hot New Performance Quad!

The 2003 Polaris Predator  500 is the most revolutionary performance ATV to hit the track, trail, and dunes. The Predator 500 is a "new from the ground up" ATV that was engineered with one very aggressive goal in mind - to deliver the ultimate combination of power, handling and suspension.


Many ATV's excel in power, handling or suspension. None combines all elements of performance riding the way the new Predator 500 does. It has stunning power from a new Polaris engine, incredible handling from the all-new PRO Steering system, and the ability to power over the gnarliest whoops with its exceptional suspension.

It's fast...it's agile...and it's got teeth.
Predator, the first performance quad engineered to deliver the ultimate combination of power, handling and suspension. We call it the predator "Sweet Spot". No compromises. No finely tuned excuses. Just fistful of power, on a quad so stable, so perfect in steering geometry, it helps you take your riding to the next level...and the level after that. Rookie or racer, that's a good thing. Because out on the trails or dunes, you're either Predator...or you're prey.

So Powerful it frees the beast within you.
Predator unleashes the newest power in performance quads. A new, liquid-cooled, high-performance 500 engine. It's a hardhitting, high-revving, four-stroke, four-valve powerplant with a double overhead cam. Fed by a pulse fuel pump to guarantee positive fuel flow in rough terrain. Breathing in through a 42-mm BSR carb. Breathing out through tuned 2-into-1 header pipes. Best of all, in the turns, Predator's advanced steering lets you stay on the throttle. You can keep the revs high, scream through the corners, and free the beast within you.

So well suspended it flies in the face of conventional quads.
Big travel means smooth rides and soft landings. Traditional front-end designs limit the amount of suspension travel. Predator's unique PRO Steering linkage optimizes steering geometry and still allows the double A-arms to have a whoop of travel. Softening the ride up front are Fox rebuildable gas shocks with adjustable spring preload and a big 10" of travel to soak up ruts, bumps and jumps. In back, Predator features a non-linkage suspension that's simpler and lighter than competitive quads. The strategically positioned rear shock is the most adjustable in a stock performer. We're talking adjustable spring preload, adjustable rebound and compression damping adjustment. Predator is so well suspended, it flies in the face of ordinary quads. And hands you more control, less feedback, softer landings and smoother rides.
PREMIUM FOXR REAR SHOCK is fully adjustable for spring preload, compression and rebound damping, and is rebuildable and revalvable.

Comes with everything but the trophy.
Right out of the box, Predator gives you more premium features than most performance quads. Instead of wrenching on your bike replacing stock parts, you're riding. And saving a ton of money. Approximately two thousand dollars! That's right! If you had to buy these premium features on the after market scene you would have to pay over $2,000. That means more money for that trip to your favorite riding spot.
