I was just wondering how well you can jump with the scrambler 500. Has anyone ever got air with it? If so how high. I am really curious. I've jumped a scrambler 400 before, is it pretty similar to that?

 

They should be about the same...weight wise at least. All I know is that we will never see me on my Scram in HuevosIV.

 

They can fly, just nothing like like a 400ex or Banshee. They weight just a tiny bit more

 

I own 2 SC 4WD 500s and have a third in the garage owned by a friend. Recently we ran into a pair of 400s on the trail and swapped around.

The 2WD 400s were very noticeably lighter, more nimble and happier in the air. I still prefer the 500s, but to answer your question, there is quite a bit of difference between the machines jumping ability.

 

I know the ol' Tblazer can=0

 

A Scrambler can fly you just gotta hammer it!

Thanks for the info and GOOD LUCK!!!

 

My buddy jumps his 97 Scrambler all the time. He gets serious air, but just about every ride, he either breaks a chain, or the spring in his chain tensioner.
