-400cc engine
-2 stroke
-kick start
-5 speed tranny
-manual clutch
-Trail Blazer body
-optional reverse
-2 wd
-long travel in rear
-lighter frame
++ Dont get excited, this is my idea of a Polaris Sport quad to compete against Honda and Yamaha. I've been thinking of this for a while, Polaris needs a true sport quad.

sounds good, i would onyl add

electric opt. start

a new body, between the T Blazer and the Scrambler, maybe a little sportier (smaller)than the scramblers frame

2wd concentric

wide stance, like the banshee a little wider in front for hihg speed stability

nice stock tires

A LOT lighter frame, maybe chromoly, or aluminum, only problem is that this would jakc up the prices evne higher) maybe aluminem or chromoly as an option (maybe that would cost too much to make both types of frames.


It would be cool making a sport quad for polaris....I hope they would get someone in there that would make a true sport atv, not some 4by4 sport

PS: whats with that name? Xcaliber?

What polaris needs to do..

Is make a Light Weight Auto 400cc 2 stroke.

Make an Auto that will blow by a Banshee! i know it can be done. Just has to be tuned right!

yea your right, I would also like shift on teh fly...its a hassle to stop to shift,

Maybe they could give it a low and high gear like the Sp500, but gear it so the low is higher than usual and the high SCREAMS!

I came up with Xcaliber because Polaris seems to like X's: Xplorer 400, Xplorer 500,Xplorer 300, Xplorer 250, Xpedition 425, Xpediton 325. I hope there will be a Polaris Xcursion that has a 535cc engine, shift on the fly tranny, high, low, and superlow, an AWD system that engages the 4 tires automatically and can also be the traditional way,and IRS.

How about this.....replace the 250cc motor in the Trailblazer with a 400cc air cooled 2 stroke motor, replace the pull start with a kick start , replace the floorboards and mudflaps with foot pegs, remove the electric start and battery.

The Trail Blazer SS $3499

Uh.....Maybe not

Trals Blazzer? a 400 cc two stroke, make it a liquid cooled!

I tihnk "Xcursion" would be a good name for a Polaris Utility "tank" like the Sportsman500
and a scarmbler SS for there "super sport" or as you like to call it the Xcaliber, 9the onyl problem with is that all of Polaris's utilitys are X.... so i tihnk Scampbler ss may be better


Wow a Xplorer, Xpedition, adn an Xcursion.....if I cna remember correctly....isnt there a automobile company that has all three of those?.......O YEA its FORD
