what list are you looking at????
go right to arctic cat and look at the sleds for 2008
they have that engine listed under the F5 the F5LXR the Crossfire5, and
Touring T500
its right there 499cc efi stroke with batterly less ignition they have been
using this for a few years and i dont believe they have any intention of
doing away with it as it has been a dependable engine for thier entry level
sleds.
