I am probably buying a 97 scrambler 400 with the following mods...

<<
HPD Pipde. CLutch Kit for faster, torquier take off, New Crank, New Weisco Pistons Bored .40 over, Bored Carb bored .40 over, Ritter Racing airbox, Chain tensioners, Delta v force reeds, Titans all the way around, New Grips, New Waterpump, Uni Aifr Filter, the stock stearing bearing sucks so i have a real good one...improves stearing a lot......The 4x4 is on demand..Push button.....
>>




i want to lnow if it will turn 25/24 inch tires, with ease,
im pretty sure the tires are 23 back and 22 front, right?
i just want to know if i want to put on different , bigger tires if im going to loose alot of power?

22&quot; rear and 23&quot; fronts. Very fast quad. With those mods you should at leats hit 65 mph. Bigger tires would fit but if you get them I would recommend installing a 12:1 Billet head. With a trail pipe and appropriate clutch kit you will have lost some low end power. The 12:1 head will give you gobs of torque to turn the bigger tires.

You will really whip the SP500 in a drag race.

good,
i thought it should easily smoke him,
im gonna get him back for smoking me on my rokon 2x2 woods bike
this is exactly the quad im looking for,
i get a good 4x4 system,
power,
speed,
and sportyness,
with bigger tires, i would get higher speed to right?
oh yeah,
as it is now, what octane fuel would be best, ive seen things that 92 is the max for a stock scambler,
and if i get the 12:1
what octane then?
or should i get the add-in?

You need only run 92 octane. Bigger tires usually mean a higher top speed but they take away a lot of acceleration and performance.
