At the heart of the 2010 Polaris Sportsman 300 atv motorcycle, Polaris features a 298 cc (18.2 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration.
On the scales, the Sportsman 300 measures 249.5 kg (550 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 813 mm (32 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,168 mm (46 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 17.03-liter (4.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
