    BDX gear reduction with reverse

    Wanting to do such a mod and looking for input. What ratio has given good results? Looking for better launch but still getting 65 miles top speed. And what is the stock gear ratio? Thanks in advance

    Which should I get Scrambler 850 LE or Renegade 800R XXC?

    I'm not sure if the guy is on this forum as well, jccapri , I contacted him thru polarisatvforum. He has different kits depends on what you require. If you need a phone number just send a pm and I will reply.

    Which should I get Scrambler 850 LE or Renegade 800R XXC?

    Having had to make the same decision back in April I can tell you I'm glad I bought a scrambler over the renegade. Having rode and worked on both machines and brands for some time I find that polaris is just easier. Easier to go fast, smoother and easier to keep on top of maintenance. Rad...

    Soooo, spring Rocky Rail Line - Horberg to Nordegg trip - anyone?

    Spit it out Mike! It should be a great ride, been a long time since I rode with either one of you boys.

    Soooo, spring Rocky Rail Line - Horberg to Nordegg trip - anyone?

    I would love to say that I will for sure, since I have never made the full trip before. But work is sporadic right now and bills have to be paid. And I don't remember calling you a pu$$y, maybe a d1nk from time to time but not a pu$$y

    Soooo, spring Rocky Rail Line - Horberg to Nordegg trip - anyone?

    Little off topic. I was out in that area today down by pipeline crossing by the north Saskatchewan. While we sat for lunch our group cleaned up garage left behind for close to an hour. The carelessness of some people amazes me. On a positive note the trails are awesome already. Just the right...

    mode info for new scrambler

    Your first post not going so well? Best and easiest mod is a good set of rubber, the stock tires are average at best.

    2004 grizzly 660

    The grizzly 660 was bad for steaming itself. There was a recall kit from Yamaha if it's not already installed. It's like a aluminum covered foam pad for under the fuel tank. Trapped steam gets under the tank cover and that's where the air box pulls from. I have seen people drilling small holes...

    Polaris scrambler 850/1000 has caught my eye..

    Yeah, I was kinda wondering about the power the 1000 has. Hard to tell on limited traction surfaces right now. And only riding friends machine. Even with 30s she a beast eh? Be a good show to watch, other buddy has can am renegade 1000. Nice to see how those will compare also.

    Chatted with Amber @rainy creek, she had pretty good things to say about both the 850 & 1000. Pricing seemed good as well. Still not a huge amount of aftermarket goodies to be found for these machines

    As with most sportier quads, getting dirty is likely. Options for fender extensions and such? Most common upgrade and benefit?

    Buddy just picked up his 1000 scrambler, barely any miles on it but you can't smack the smile off his face. He told me to take her for a rip but I don't wanna put the first scratch on it.

    Best can for Proclimb

    Bike man has two different styles of cans, one loud and one quiet, tried both and the quiet is the better can by far. Had intermittent bog and seemed like over fueling problems at idle when using the loud can. Switched to the quiet and all problems ceased, strange but true. Mechanics told me it...

    Nordegg...blackstone etc.

    Morning Richard, tried to pm you but won't go thru. Camera I suspect is about a foot deep in a meadow somewhere. But like I said, I have had good luck so far. Not sure if there is any fresh in the last week. Snow was getting really set up last outing
