I recently purchased a Raptor, why? because my 99-400cc polaris scrambler was almost always breaking down. I have replaced the piston, tie-rod ends, steering bushing, tires & rims, changed the electrical wiring to get the 4-wheel drive to work all the time. The air box is a real pain. Had to change the brakes every 200 miles and the front end would always shake regardless of wheel alignment. The scrambler can't get out of its own way and is too heavy for claiming hills, even in 4-wheel. My friends have raptors & 400ex's they run rings around the scrambler. I'm so glad I purchased a real ATV that gives you zero problems.

Hey what up with this.

''I dont know maybe I to patriotic, or the prices for japanese replacement parts is getting to my wallet.''

Why is all these REPLACEMENT parts getting to your wallet? Does your utility(lol) quad keep breaking down>? AHHH Ha ha ha.

I remember one time I was at a party and there was a Scrambler and a Blaster. Well me and my friend decided to go for a ride. I rode the blaster and he the scrambler, well to make it short, they were about the same but in favor of the yamy. 200cc-400cc(397 whatever) same speed. Does that make senese to you?

What are you talking about? I could probaly swear on the Bible that your last 300 posts were bashing the Raptor. Is that all you do? Are you that threatened by this race beast?

I think the Scrambler 400 is a great machine for deep mud, and water!

I was talking about my toyota truck, I recently replaced the ball joints and u joints, for some reason they cost more than american made trucks.

The scrambler tops at 70mph and the blaster tops at 60mph max. Theres no way any favor would be towards the blaster.
