Hey guys!! Just placed my order for a green 2017 500. I should be picking it up in 2 to 3 weeks. Does anyone have one in their hands yet? Just looking to introduce myself and see if I can find some video reviews.
Hey, any update on that 2017 P500? I really want to purchase a '17, but I'd like to hear some reviews first. The new green is right up my alley, better shocks, auto/manual shift mode, and a higher final drive gear ratio sounds like an improved trail rig recipe. Very exciting to me!!!

I should have my green 17 this week!!! And to my knowledge I'll be the first in here with one. So hopefully they're not a POS!!! If it is I'll let you know to cancel that order! Lol

Yea, I'm not sure what has changed. It sounds like a low top speed has been one of the P500's biggest complaints so far. Wishful thinking on my end is that it's a little higher on the '17's. Reality is that they'll probably keep it about the same for liability.

You and Jf500 are racing, who will get it first!
I'm just curious if they gave it anymore top end speed.
Even being geared different, the limiter may kick in at 42.

Can't wait to hear a riding review of the 17! Would be even better if you guys got to drive a 16 too for comparison.

Just called my dealer to see if they had any '17 P500's yet. He said they have some on order, but don't expect to see any till October! I was hoping to see one at a dealer soon.
