P500 Who would trade theirs in

[Montecresto]

I offered $9500 out the door for a 2020 model and they pretty much laughed in my face.

5 years later and Covid era shortages....🤷‍♂️

Who would trade their p5 in if the 2021 comes out with the 520 engine and a few other improvements like front locker and more suspension travel... Bottom line what would it take for you to trade?

It would take more than a 520. Power steering is not needed on a small machine like the p500. Locker is no big deal. But a little more punch (More than 520) might be cool.
like a 700 in a 500 frame. Like the maverick sports. They come in a 800 or 1000 🤷‍♂️

After sending this machine through things I never thought possible, then staring at the trail from hell in front of me, I'll take every advantage I can get to help get me through it. It really depends on where you ride, otherwise I've spent like 12 grand on sh** I don't need. 🤔

First time I’ve seen that number thrown out and I believe it. Makes me feel good too sense I think I’m around 8. But who’s really counting......🤣

Well I found a 2020 white p5 That I’m putting a deposit on in the morning and I’m gonna pick it up next week. I would pick it tomorrow but my little dog has been sick so I’m gonna wait till she gets better before I travel and pick it up..

By the way I heard the white ones are the by far the fastest 🤪

It’s nickname will be White Lightning ⚡️⚡️⚡️

If you search on here it's been reported the 520 foreman has 1.3 hp more than the 500 (475cc), if I remember correctly. Weight differences in tires & add-ons, or even being a big fella like me could make more of a difference than 1.3hp... But clearly I'm also a believer in every little bit helps!

No way.Locker,ps,walker evans shocks and spending money to make my 17 shift and behave like a 15 model.[no auto shift up or down].Plus,it smells like me now and may or may not have a booger or two wiped on the edge of the seat.Who would want it??

Another soon to be disillusioned dreamer. It’s well documented on the site that red is the fastest. Sheesh soon I’ll be hearing how your privileged white model supports BLM.

 

[Alan aka Davinci]

I wouldn't for no bigger than the engine size increase is and I like my 5 speed manual in my 2015 too much.

You heard correctly!

$3k seems like the sweet spot for mods. Had to up the amounts for @trigger more than once.

@HUCK are you going to take this? Your blue theory is being disputed.

 

[snakeriver]

I have so much invested in accessories on mine that I would take a bath on it. So the bottom line is no I would not trade for a the new model, I would be better off adding whatever it has for new items.

 

[Wisdumb]

Just got mine a couple months ago and have spent thousands in upgrades. Nearly every part has been upgraded except for the suspension. The new model would have to be shiny as heck for me to be looking at another one right now.
