How powerful is a trailblazer 400? I would think that a 400 cc two stroke would be very powerfull. What quad is it in the same league as?
Thank you, Bradley

That must be a sick engine considering how fast a 350 Banshee is. Or is it a weight issue?

Stock for stock for stock in a drag would be the Yamaha 1st, followed closely by the honda and polaris.

But mildly modify the machines, and your will see the polaris establish a dominace in a drag over the honda. As far as Raptors go, I won some and lost some.

Anything other than drags I do not know of firsthand, but I am positve that the 2 japanese will handle better.

Well lets see...here are the two reasons why the Banshee is faster.
1) Lighter, all out sport quad
2) Twin cylinder

The Trailblazer/Scrambler 400's are heavy, but can be lightened and can be turned into some bad *ss quads.

Cubic dollars will always yield good results in any brand. The trail mod setup on the trailblazer will make riding fun all around and will outrun a 400EX and neck and neck with a stock piped Raptor. They're not fit for everyone, but I like that gas and go!

The Polaris 400 2 stroke has been severally tuned down in stock form. A few after market mods will really wake the motor up. Not a true sport quad, but a lot of fun on the trails.

Is the Trailblazer 400 detuned from the Sport 400?
