Stock a 400 but just barely. Modded a 400 by a long shot.

Yup, stock 400's just barely beat the 500's ...
But, 400's modded, dust the 500's

Can any of you tell me why this would be the case? Is the 500 heavier?

because the 400 is a 2-stroke and the 500 is a 4-stroke. 2-stroke's make power in half the strokes and with less moving parts...

I have to agree with Jayblazer, the 2 stroke puts out more hp. I think my old 400 Scrambler and my buddies 500 Scrambler was about the same weight. Of course he had more low end and I had more wheel speed.
