450 YZF? thats a dirtbike man... [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

i love scramblers, but i'm convinced enless u do engine work, aside from pipeing, clutching or anything w/ the carb or intake, it won't quite stack up, i sold my scrambler because 1 of the reason i just could'nt get the horse power i wanted, in search of buying a predator, i love the scrambler, & not a big fan of banshee riders, they're too cocky, but either way scramblers flat out need a lot of work & a lot of money put into them, but i just like a predator better anyways, yfz's r race quads, i've seen stock scrammys get smoked by pipeds utilitys, anyways HPD offer the best for polaris parts, but to do it right, & do a lot of it, it's not cheap.

 

well when you bring up the subject of money....

lets say i get a 1999 400 scrammy for 2000 dollars, my friend gets a YFZ for 6500...thats 4500 dollars difference you saved and if you take that 4500 that you saved and put it into the motor and the bike itself...you better watch out.

 

I bought my 02 400 4x4 scrammy used for 3400.00 and have about 1400.00 in mods. What I wanted was a very strong running 4x4 that would be on the sporty side. If I wanted a 2wd sport quad, I would buy a new Troy Lee Pred. My scrammy will run with most sport quads and is a great all around quad.

The new Pred has a lifetime warrenty on chain and axle.

 

1500 in mods for the hpd race mod isn't really that much compared to what alot of these 4 stroke guys put in there quads. Yammaslamma is right with that much money difference you could get the powermaxx setup and drop a lot of weight of the sport scrambler. Now people will say why would you want to do that, just buy a true sport quad. I love my auto and the 2 stroke so that's why I'm a polarisfreak. From what I have seen it doesn't take a hole lot to bring the yfz to life though, cams and alky really pick them up! Just pick your quad, do some mods and see ya at the drag strip![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Reading all this makes me think about getting my scrambler back out. I have been riding a bombardier. The auto was getting boring. But the scrammy does just cruzz down the track. I do have an aaen 440 with 39mm Mid porting girdle kit but i think its a hotseat pip i got off ebay. There wasn't much that beat the 440. I'ts just a smooth power flow, not quite like the race mods. Lets ride

 

ya YAMAHASLAMMA defantly has an excellent point, i like a clutch now, but i've also thouhg about maybe in a yr or 2, buy a stock 400 scrammy & go right through it, put tons of hpd stuff, but to each his own, and i had thought about my sinking money into it, after i posted, but hell, if ur havin fun i guess that's the best of it, i've seen a looking close to stock z-400 out drag a modded to hell 250r w/ a drag set up & all, i've become a 4-stroke, but either way i love polaris's all around.
