They are pretty sweet, i don't like the fully auto, but it is a good 4 wheeler. It is a four stroke so it shouldn't have much of a problem going throught the water and stuff like that. My uncle really wants to get one here soon.

I was just wondering how that belt does in water, does it slip or do ok..

 

as far as the belt drive...a guy I know has a scrambler 400 built special for him...and I have watched him cross creeks and river beds basically with water over the seat and he has not a problem with slipping...but he is into that 4x4 type of atv...I prefer the 2 stroke fast sob to keep me smilin

I've had our Pol in some pretty deep stuff before(like rack deep water) and it didn't have any probs but i have heard of it happening. I guess you can just rev the motor and dry it off if the water is able to drain but i suppose that just cuts down on belt life big time.

 

I just bought a 500 4x4(2000), I've have it in water, mud, and everything else I can throw at it. I've never have a problem with the belt yet. I'm sold on these machines, they never quit pulling and have more torque than most machines. I think you'll be happy with it. ENJOY!!!

 

I TALKED TO A GUY I HAVE KNOWN FOR YEARS THAT WORKS ON ATVS.HE TOLD ME THAT POLARIS IS NOTHING BUT TROUBLE, BUT I THINK HE HAS JUST WORKED ON THE OLDER ONES. DOES ANYONE IF THEY MADE ANY CHANGES FOR THE NEWER ONES?AND DOES ANYONE KNOW THE TOP SPEED FOR THE SCRAMBLER 500 4X4?

 

Check out the 400EX first. Unless you have to have 4x4 it will be WAY better than the Polaris...Have fun out there!
