The top speed of the BearTracker is about 45mph and the blazer may do 48 at the most. Id go for the blazer, I rode a Beartracker a few weeks ago I couldnt believe how underpowered it was.

I have a trailblazer and one of my co-workers has a beartracker. The trailblazer is a little bit faster on the top end.

If the new bear tracker are anything like the old t wolve i would get a beartracker. My first bike was a t wolve and i would have to disagree about it being underpowered. I have never rode or owned another 4 wheeler that rode wheelies longer and easier and yes i have rode about every bike out there just my 2 cents

Hey ridered, how could you say that the Bear tracker is under powered compared to the TB? If you floor it on the Bear you can spin the tires and do wheelies, If you floor it on the TB it takes a few seconds to go then it slowly accelerates, Not a chance it could burn out or do wheelies.

All im sayig is i was hardly able to climb hills or anything with it and thats the kind of riding I usauly do. The blazer just seemed to be better than the beartracker for the kind of riding I do.

We sell both those quads.

The Beartracker is a good source of income for our shop. It is by far the engine I rebuild the most. I don't believe that it is its own fault thou. I believe that it is the lack of maintance that kills this engine so quick. Also, it seems to get alot of kids on it. If you want to break something(ecspecially a B.Tracker) put a teenage boy on it.

As for the T.Blazer, I don't get to many in my shop to work on. I wonder why?

My prefference would be the T.Blazer, hands down. It might not wheelie as easy, but that is about the only thing it can't do better at. With a few bucks, you can add some mods to the T.Blazer and have even more fun. Possibly even get the front wheels up like the B.Tracker.

How many mods availible for the B.Tracker? Take a wild guess.

4... PIPE, K&N, Dyno Jet Kit, AIR Box Mods.

My friend has never had to do anything to his bear tracker (other then clean the air filter) The TB, we had to do a few things to that, Change the spark plug (witch is a major B1tch too do) tow it because it would not run (piston ring, scored cylinder) and something went wrong with the carb... BUT THAT'S IT>>>HA
Ohh ya, and BT kid has had his for over 2 years, TB has only had his for a year!!! And BT kid rides 1000 times harder and more.

Hey man you say you have worked on the TB's Did Polaris just do some crap clutching on it or is the motor just that weak, because there is no throttle response.

And are there any mods for the TB (other then the one from Polaris) Because my friend is really getting tired of not having any power.

No throttle response? My Blazer had a hell of alot more throttle response than the tracker. THats the reason i bought the blazer instead of the tracker I also wanted somthing a little heavier than the tracker.
