whats the story on the scramblers?(500 4x4) are they really heavy? whats their top speed, are they easy to maneuver, how are they in the mud and snow? they have good acceleration? thanx guys

 

The scrambler is the best of both worlds. It is a little utility and a little sport. You can climb better and go through more mud than other sports plus you can carry stuff with you. And, it is lighter, faster, and a lot more fun than a ute. I really dont notice the weight. Yeah, it is heavier, but it is a beast and built like a tank. Just look at all the more features that is has over sports. Plus, you can still do a mean powerslide, them go mud bogging. Acceleration is good, better than a 500 sportsman with a top speed around 62-63 mph. Now than mine is clutched and piped, it pulls a lot harder and I can stay even with a stock DS650 until he hits 4th gear, where as when I was stock, He has me when he hit 2nd. I love the 500 scrambler 4x4. It is the perfect all around quad

 

I love my Scramblers that’s why I own two of them. They are a bit heavy even my 2x4 which are 46 pounds lighter than the 4x4. If you’re not going to jump them too much or go in a lot of sand you wont notice the extra weight to much. Top speed is pretty fast. I think someone has mentioned that on other threads I can’t remember though. They are easy to maneuver and ride. I haven’t done much in the mud I suppose they are good. I have only been in the snow once and it seemed to run good even with a passenger on (packed by snowmobiles). They have good acceleration. There hardly isn’t any ATV that is going to be perfect for all of your riding needs. But I think the Scramblers are the best for me.
