The 2008 Polaris Sportsman 800 EFI X2 is the ultimate convenience in ATV technology: it only needs 10 seconds or so to switch between a nifty two-up riding configuration to a solo, work-focused one, all without tools and in few easy steps. The rear cargo box hides the pillion seat when work has to be done, allowing larger bulks to be accommodated with ease, and returning to a touring stance once the job is done.

A powerful 760cc twin engine drives the automatic transmission and thanks to the active descent control and engine braking systems, steep gradients are no longer insurmountable obstacles. Progressive rate suspensions make sure the 2008 Polaris Sportsman 800 EFI X2 will provide a smooth ride regardless of load and terrain, while big-bore engine will make things fun in pretty much any scenario.
