i don't have one. nor do i think i will ride one. one of my cousin's best friends was thrown from one while she was riding, she hit a tree and died on impact.

that's not the reason i don't want one, i have a car, it is all i need.

Scrambler top speed is 83 mph stock, I have a 2001 400ex, I put a lower sprocket in the front so it tops out at 51mph, but that means I have enough torque and get up to roast anything with wheels in the woods, and a 2004 350 rancher, its a decent bike.

banshees dont have governers, they're just slow stock, they need reed work, intake work, carberator jetting, sprocket changes, and boring, then they're un godly fast.

I dont mean to be a smart ass about this stuff, but I have a garage fourwheeler shop, and do work on peoples bikes.

2005 Polaris 500 Sportsman H.O. and a stock 400ex. I had a 250R(insanely fast) but I about killed myself, so I got rid of it. I really haven't road for a couple of months, just been using the 500 for work around the "farm". I wont get to ride again until I'm in on break for Thanksgiving/Deer Season(I hate living 300 miles away at college).

battlefreak how do you like the scrambler (when in proper working order)? Does it accelerate fast, how about pulling stuff and handling. I've been looking into getting one and would like to hear a first hand review from someone who actually owns one. Plus that isn't afraid to top it out lol.

A dude here died on an ATV like, a week before he graduated. Apparently landed on him and crushed his chest. I know the dude who was riding with him at the time...I'd hate to be in that situation.
