I've jumped my 98 SP500 3 feet, but it takes a lot of effort and it will take its toll on you and the quad. Ive had the shift linkage konk out and wheel nuts come loose because of excessive jumping.

Hell yeah. There are many little "jumps" on the trails where I ride and the Scrambler always rises to the occasion. The 3-4 foot estimate is pretty accurate, although there are a few times where it gets a little higher than that. And theres been no broken chains yet, either.

Well, I have to say i've had some good success jumping mine. nothing major but pretty decent for sure. it lands smoothe too. It's a 2001 SC 500 4x4. Here's a link for some pics. my bike is not part of the first 12 but is on the 2nd page (13-24). I'm Aaron.

My wife doesn't have a Scrambler but she does get our RSE sp500 airborn from time to time.

I can tell you boys from first hand experience that the 500 can jump at least 10 feet. I went over a 10ft ledge (not on purpose) and the 500 landed on all fours without any problems. I, on the other hand, landed a few feet away. I would not recommend this, however, since my back was messed up for a good 5 weeks.

I am sure you guys will remember to hang on to the handle bars...
