My floor boards are aluminum on my 99 400 scrambler. The dealer said that some of the bikes came with aluminum rims but polaris changed back to steel because the aluminum ones wernt holding up.

I know on my 98 Scrambler that the rim are aluminum an they bend really easy an the floor broads are benting to so think they had problems with the alumnum parts.

 

Just Remember, AL Gore invented aluminum...

 

Yep!, Right after he invented the wheel!
HOW could the election be this close.
I beleive we are surrounded by morons.

 

It was all of those durned yankees !!!!!
I just hope that there's enough republicans left in Florida to swing the election the right way...
South Florida's nothing but carpet baggers...

 

Polaris swtiched back and forth. At first the 4x4's had aluminum and the Sport had steel, not sure why. The rims hold up ok usually, but the aluminum floorboards bend really easy.

 

Have a 2000 Scrambler 500 made in Oct 99. It has steel floorboards and aluminum wheels. The floor boards are holding up fine but the wheels are a different story. I think they should put reinforced alum wheels on the Scramblers. Sure it would cost a little more but it would save on the frustration factor. Am running tubes in the rear and am changing the fronts to race rims.

 

Hey Capt I resemble that remark.. Not all "them damn Yankees" voted for Gore. I smell a rat. Funny of all the people I've talked to noone voted for Gore. Kind of makes you go hmmmmmmmmm.

 

All aluminum on mine... bought it in April 2000.

 

My 98 Scrambler 500 has steel floorboards and aluminum rims. The previous posts that Polaris stock rims suck is true. Mine were bent all to heck and I didn't even think I was riding it that hard. I now have Douglas .190 rims. They still bend at times but not nearly what the stock ones were. I should take pictures...the back ones actually look square. My old Yamaha stock rims held up much better than that.
