As you look below i got a nice amount of money into my recon. Should i pute more into it like shocks and stuff or should i save and upgrade to something like a brand new bone stock 300ex. I like my recon and all i just don't know though. My recon can go about 52 i think. with 22 inch tires i can go like 55. Its got a nice amount of power. Ig i keep it i'm going to pute a wiseco superlight piston and stuff in it. Tell me your opinion

I have been thinking the same thing , should I sell the Recon for a 300EX or keep the Recon or keep the Recon and save my money and buy a 300EX in a year or
so.By the way I did'nt know Wiseco made a Piston for the Recon. If I do keep it I am getting some Works Suspension.I think I might to latter by the way.

You sound like you want a machine that you can go fast on but also go on nasty trails too.
Thats when its time to think about a polaris scrambler 400 or 500 4x4 or 2x4.
These machines offer you the looks, speed, and performance of a sport quad.
But also the power, torque, and working capabilities of a utility quad.
I mean want more can you ask for, your getting a machine that combines a little of everything.

2000 SCRAMBLER 400 2X4

the ids2 pipe and k&n jetkit will make your stock recon go about 55mph. Mine stock will go about 50. I can smoke my dads 450es and his goes 48mph.
