HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, I have owned 3 Polaris bikes so don't tell me I have no clue about Polaris. You put your bike on a DYno and show me the results that u can get 90hp out of it and I will have no contest. It's hard to get 90hp out of even the fastest stock bikes, and you think you can do it with a heavy out dated Scambler engine with AUTOMATIC trans, I dont care if your bike even was faster, its and automatic, a child could ride the dam thing.

To buy a Scram and strip it down that much, it's not even a Scram anymore, and to put that kind of money into something that wasn't made to perform that way is dumb. A scrambler is not a track quad its a trail quad. If you wanna go fast and race people, sell the scrambler and get a track / racing bike, hell get a predator. Why would domeone wanna do all that work to a Scram, it's not even track legal , it's an AUTOMATIC!!! You gonna race a clutch bike with a bad AUTOMATIC??? Give me a break, might as well sit back on the quad and install autopilot, what skill is it to push on a throttle and hold the wheel. Please to get a scram that light and tell me you spent no more then 5k is an out right lie!!

what wrong with auto's? u think slow things use autos? Try this on for size, snowmobiles all autos most 100+ hp 2-stroke twins, there not slow hell there faster than a lot of cars out there and they dont use no stinkin clutch. As for the trail only part, its true there excelent trail machines and not much for moto-x but they can easily be mad to haul *** and dominate in drags...so get over it. The lightman02 with the z can head back over to the jap forums and take your head out of you suzuki pals asses cus i dont wanna hear it. And i dont appreciate someone trashing on something they kno little to dick about! Also for the 90 hp thing its called a HPd 416 powermaxx kit for the 400 scrammys, a little over 2k

If the Z400 beats the 500, I'm sure a 440ex will. Even though you have some mods on your Scramy, it is still a heavy bike, you have to spend alot of money on heavy mods to make a Scambler really fast. I think the Scrambler is a good bike but you loose alot of power in the weight of the bike and the belt in the PVT.

BoonDockBasher, you are pretty much a moron. A snow mobile doesn't way half as much as a car. OF COURSE IT COULD GO FASTER!!!!!!!!!!! Did you take a stupid pill or something. I would never out 2k in a Scram, if you make a 35hp engine up to 90hp, I rather buy a new high performance engine than have to deal with the problems and nightmres that will come later. And don't race your automatic bike with my clutch, it is a useless race. It takes more skill to control a clutch bike then an Automatic. Automatic says I'm a lazy rider with no control, look all I have to do is push one lever. WHo cares about straight aways, sure I'll put your 90hp on the track against my Cannondale, I'll sure I will be heading back your way when you flip over on the track because put all the HP in it you want, it's never gonna handel like a track bike. AND WHO THE HELL CARES ABOUT SNOW MOBILES, THIS IS AN ATV FORUM!!!!!
