420's scrambler would blow away alot of quads...

400 2 stroke clutched ported..piped..all the goodies..they pump 80 horsepower out of those quads


i bet alot of money on his scrambler racing that dudes raptor..


oh and the scrambler will beat a warrior..me and my nieghbor race and his is just a few years older then yours and he's up till about 2nd gear and then i pull away..that was when my quad was stock to, so it was stock for stock...maybe u could win w/a few mods..but if not its not like he's going to be kicking ur can..sure they might go faster in a drag but those quads have about the same power so u'll be able to keep up w/him..[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

You hate losing, but you own a Warrior? Looks like it's time for an upgrade! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I think if you shift well and get a good holeshot you'll beat him. Those Scramblers weigh to much and the 4x4 system creates alot of drag, you have the advantage of owning a sport quad, good luck!

Raptors are nice and all but if I had enough money at the moment their are a few other bikes Id chose over a raptor. Stop thinkin your raptor is so fast. If I had to put my money on anyone Id put it on the scrambler 400 even tho it is a Polaris So stop arguing
Actually bud, the 660 was the 2nd fastest stock quad until the raptor 700 came out....so i dont know what you are talkin about it isnt the fastest quad....it kind of is in the top 3....

Raptors arn't as good as you think, theirs one down the road, to tall and not wide enough way to tippy, it is fast Ill give it that but in my opinion thats all its got going for it

I have never heard anyone who knows how to ride say that the Raptor is too "tippy". If it was wider, people would whine about it being too wide and not suitable for trails. For every good thing in this world, there is always going to be someone who finds fault in it. Some people, you hand them a bag of gold and they bitch about how heavy it is.

wel am not sure as i have seen neither scrambler go or warrior except when i rode one when i was 8 lol. but the scrambler will b really heavy with the 4*4 option as of the drive to the front wheels. i know it can be turned off though. but my money is on your warrior. after all, its more of a race quad than the scrambler and is lighter and its modded. let us know how is goes on.

I have been riding dirtbikes and atv's for over 25 years..... And I have owned a 2002 Raptor.....
And YES they are "tippy".... Now you have heard from someone who "knows how to ride" and owned a raptor as well.....

Ya can't get info like that from no Dalai Lama.......[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

The Raptor is a great quad...... But I still think its a little tippy in stock form....
I had a chance to ride one last year that had been lowered about 4" and the handling was so much better......
