How does the Prairie do against a 400EX
#1
Wondering how fast a Prairie is in comparison to a stock 400ex or Scrambler 500 is a straight drag to 60 or so. I've owned these others so i'm just trying to get a god bench mark on the utilities. I know, I know, it's not a drag racing machine. That's not all I'm after. I just want a power comparison to something I am familiar with. Yes, I know it's better int he mud and stuff, just how about ran take power to top end.

I had a Scram 500 before I got the Prairie, comparing straight line performance they feel very similar. I rarely ride where I can use the top end but I think there very close here too. I would say the Prairie would be faster in a side by side comparison but it's hard to tell going from one to the other. HTH

My Prairie was running pretty much side by side with a z400 in the sand for the 200 yards or so we ran, out ran a 300ex real bad. I left the others alone they were all modded Banshees and Piped Raptors. The prairie will scare a lot of the sport quads pretty good. I out ran a Scrambler 500 last fall and beat a scrambler 400 uptil about 45 or 50 mph. The P700 flat moves for a big utility machine.

I've raced a modded (piped, roller-whatever, airbox, etc.) Scrambler 500 several times with my P700 and smoked him 2-3 quadlengths over 300 feet. At one point, he got the holeshot on me, and I ran him down. My mods were (I sold the P700 last weekend) a full HMF, snorkle, Dynojet needles, cams degreed to VForce specs, and a 6* crank key. HTH

Steve,
2 questions for you. Why did you sell it and what are you planning to buy next to replace it? Just curious.
