These things rip. Pipe clutch kit and some porting. Don't sleep on them. I watched a guy at silver lake embarrass the usual suspects 450s , banshees, and Rs for an hour 2 summers ago.
This is the 5th video I watched just randomly and after the 4th video I said yup gots to subscribe to this guy. My buddies are starting to watch aswell. They are hard-core trx 400ex die hards. Later dude. See ya in the next video. We be waiting man.
I like this channel too, it’s not over produced, it’s like being in my own garage or one of my friends. Props for taking the time to video tape it all and put it online for the rest of us👍
Merry Christmas bro!, I own a 98 polaris sportsman 500, it's a alright quad it weighs 750 pounds and the brakes never work, your arms are noodles after riding for more than 1 hour Lol. Pretty okay power tho. Never had a single problem with the engine, anyway great vid definitely gonna have to keep that scrambler and ride it 😂 weirdest looking quad I've ever seen lol happy holidays !!
These get a lot of hate and laughs from people with no clue about them. With the right mods these are very fast in a straight line. By very fast I mean they will beat the R and banshee you have easily. Simple kits like the powermaxx have these dyno at over 85hp. Im looking at the sheets now. These quads actually won atv nationals back in the day vs 250rs ect. They were custom frames and they changed the rules so they couldn't compete anymore. I had a 00 400 2x4 that was what they called the sport then. Stock frame ect i was jumping stuff on the track not many guys would. I also won on it before. Ive had 2 built 250rs a built banshee multiple 450s honda and yam including a national bike from a previous champion. These things rip dont let the people on Facebook that have never been around them tell you differently.
@garagemcmatt it wasn't built to be a motocross machine. But for what you do it would suite your needs fine. Ill say they did have some not desirable points but what quad was ever perfect? For a trail and straight line its hard to beat one.
The scrambler 400 and 500 were a pile of crap! I smoked both machines with my 400ex I didn't even have to try .once you hit 3rd with a 400ex you just walk away from those scramblers. If you mod the 400 scrambler the trans can't take it .
@@Daddy-o-v2y ive had well over a dozen 400ex and unless you raced a stock worn out scrambler that never happened. 400ex is what 27hp stock? I love them but they don't stand a chance to a scrambler 400 in a drag race.
@@Daddy-o-v2y but just know you're the exact person I was talking about with no clue. You've probably had 2 quads and your experience is riding around the gravel pit in mis matched gear. There's a few scrambler videos on here you can watch that shows what they can do at the drags.
Polaris is junk. So many weak spots, I feel deliberate. I'll work on them all day, but I'll never own one. Seems like I'm constantly fixing the same shit on different models. I'm 2stroke for life. This only kinda excites me. Looks like the robot from Short Circuit from the front! 🤣

I don't think I'm gunna put too much into this quad. I might just make it rideable and sell it
Build it. Years ago I got one on Craigslist cheap with some mods to putt around. My friend had a banshee and it made him cry. 😂
Your the second person to say these smoke other quads. I'm having a hard time thinking that this quad could even keep up in the trails I ride on
Merry Christmas to you and your family Matt, have a happy and safe holiday! Cool will it run video BTW.
Thanks bro
Hope you have a good new year
Thanks bro you too

Thanks bro. Next video should be on the cheap 400ex challenge. Waiting on parts during the holidays takes forever

@akraix182 thanks for watching
Best part is matt is constantly putting out some type of videos.. you don't have to wait weeks at a time.
@jb1.. I'm trying to keep videos coming out. It's harder then you would think
Great video, Matt! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you too!
Thanks bro, see you next weekend in the 400ex vid
I would love to have a 400 scrambler. Nice find! I had the brochure from Polaris and all ways like the 400s

Merry Xmas to guys aswell.
