I was wonderin how well the scrambler is at pullin things like sleds in the winter. I know two strokes are not that swift when it comes to haulin heavy loads. But how do they do just hooking up a couple tubes to the back in the winter for when it snows. Will it be able to handle the load all day or wil it heat up and melt the engine?

I know my blaster I had lasted about five minms. before it melted the entire piston and rod. Yet some of the four strokes I ahve owned have gone multiple seasons with out having a single engin problem.

The 400 is the same as yours. And the 500, if the gearing is not changed, is geared way to high.

The scrambler has more then enough power for that. A sled or tube with 1 person on it is not enough to hurt it. I have done this same thing with my trailblazer, without any problems.

Keep in mind that you now have liquid cooling and twice the size engine you had with the Blaster.
