I dont think so the scrambler 400 is capable of going as fast in reverse as it is forward and thats 70mph.
Theres no why a manual reverse quad is capable of reaching 70mph in reverse, 40 maybe not 70.

Guess I will see you from the front instead of the rear at that speed in reverse. You could start most races backwards and win, do you use mirrors or just turn your head ?

Scrams right, all CVT Polaris quad have this. It for added power in rev. not for speed. I did this once and got up to I would have to guess about mach1(really about maybe 30) and scared me ****less. Never again, thought I was a goner!

Actually I believe that the Scrambler is able to go 1/2 as fast in reverse as in forward gear because there is a 1:2 gear reduction in reverse. Still faster than you will ever need.

NO DOUBT ABOUT IT THAT THAT QUAD WOULD BE A SCRAMBLER 400.
