Depends which model, 4x4 or 2x4, which engine, 400 or 500, and which year, '95-'00.

I don't know how much truth is too it, and I really don't care for argueing about it either, but a recent dirtwheels test clocked a stock 2000 500 scrambler between 65-68 mph on a straight paved road. Thats fast my friends.

I have a 2000 Scrambler 500 and I must say
the top speed is impressive. 65+ is about
what im hitting on hard packed dirt.

This quad rules

Good Luck

I will back-up a low 60mph top speed for the NON HO 500 scrambler. The newer HO will probably see the high side of 60mph.

Bone stock, I clocked my SC500 at 65+ against a DR350 on dirt.
