At the heart of the 2011 Polaris Sportsman 800 EFI atv motorcycle, Polaris pairs a 760 cc (46.4 cu in) liquid-cooled twin, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing.
On the scales, the Sportsman 800 EFI measures 336.1 kg (741 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 857 mm (33.7 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,289 mm (50.7 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 15.52-liter (4.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
