depending on where you take it and what there idea of a "tune up" is it could be newhere from 50$ to 150$. I work at a cycle & ATV repair shop and our idea of a tune up on a 2stroke is changin the oil plug and cleaning out the carb checking the gas for debris or water makin sure the injector is functionin properly if equiped checkin the tires and drivetrain cleaning the air filter checking the differintial and hub fluid levels if equipped and checking for unusual noises in the engine

Kukerdan, after this winter id check your O rings in your front end and put some cardboard under your front tires to see if your hubs r leaking and also take that whole front hub cover off and check the insides if there was a LOT of filings on the magnet.

Also i have a ? for neone that can help : whats a good website where i can get 97 scrambler 400 4x4 aftermarket parts like bumper and pipes and chain tensioners and chain and sprockets and such??

ftwflh, do you find that the Green spring detracts a lot from the top end of your Sportsman? I started with the stock blue-green primary spring in my Xplorer, and I moved up to a white spring without much of a drop in top speed (maybe 1mph, if at all), but a nice boost in low and mid-range power. I like hard acceleration, and I've been considering a green spring, but if it's gonna knock my top speed down into the high 50's (she'll do about 65 right now), I won't be quite so interested...
