Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: How do I know if my intake boot needs replacing? A: Cracks, stiffness, or a loose fit on the carburetor or airbox side usually signal it is time for a new boot, since leaks let unfiltered air into the engine.

Q: Does this boot fit all Sportsman 500 models from 2006 to 2013? A: It is listed for the Polaris Sportsman 500 across those years, but confirming the OEM number 5412562 against your machine is the safest check.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
