same, i find it amusing but also i do learn a bit from it. seeing him fix it makes me think about what i need to do to fix my quads (am just way slower i take months and do lil part here and there) and lately good deals are hard to find... so iam trying to fix those quad i still have that needs to be fixed

I worked at a plant that made Polaris exhaust very low quality, but they did switch to stainless steel on a lot of different models. Alot of the welds still look like crap though

@TheBarrettCompound 4 месяца назад

I had one just like it, got mine for $500. The guys daughter rolled it, didn't have any spark either. New CDI, voltage regulator, and coil. Problem was the spark plug boot. Fun to rip 🙏🏼

@Stephen033 Год назад

Love the video. It is a nice quad, you should have put it up on jackstands and fired it up and engaged the 4x4 to see if it was working properly. I know its an old video but if you still have the quad, that's what I would do just to make sure it's workin. Great video Joe. Keep up the great work and can't wait to see what you fix next.

I am assuming this is an old video that you just made and released, but your new belt isn't going to last long with a huge piece broken off the inner sheave on your primary. Good job on pointing out the front hubs filled with grease instead of oil. I just learned something, thanks.

@flyin427ford Год назад

Here's some more for ya, they also have to be filled with the PROPER oil, or they still wont work.

@opie7afe Год назад

Yep should be filled at minimum with automatic transmission fluid.

@MidnightPolaris800 7 месяцев назад

He purposely didn't mention it but he 100% saw and noticed it. He didn't say anything because he knows it's at least $200 for a decent used clutch with no weights or spring. This is why guys part these out and don't fix. They will have more money into fixing than it's worth

@austinsweet6293 Год назад

I just sold that exact model 2001 scrambler 500 4x4. i had it for 4 years and it was a maintenance nightmare most of the time. When I purchased it (for 2000) It needed a lot I didnt realize as well. new primary clutch,belt, breaks, master cylinders, caliper, petcock, tie rod ends, wheel and axle bearings carb kit and tires. Always ran great though..... Had it up for 2000 on marketplace ( all fixed)ended up letting it go for 1500. Good luck I'd run but I am nowhere near as skilled as urself.

@TreySlayPlay23 8 месяцев назад

My father and I had a 250 trailboss and he had the scrambler 500 2wd version And as I got older, the scrambler became mine and that thing was one of the fastest quads of its day And mine was the 2 wheel drive to Stroke. And it would dust a stock 400 EX around the same year.

@j-beatsimaginationstudio1987 Год назад

Reverse 4x4 is with the yellow button only, try it but the forward 4x4 only engages when it senses the rear tires spinning so give it a bit of throttle. I know youll prob figure this all out before this video ends tho lol

Hey not sure if you noticed but at 2400 in video you are having screws that are stripped out! But if you look very closely you will see the tip of your Phillips head screwdriver has an extended tip on it. Just take a little off the tip on a grinder wheel and some of the stripped screws will go away! Love your contents of your videos!

It's usually a bad sign when there's missing parts especially with the electronics, if the wires shit taken out and missing, thats a pretty good sign there's something wrong that they couldn't figure out and just gave up on it.

@amanteapasionado6836 Год назад

My Mom's ex husband used to have a 500 Polaris scrambler, it was prolly around an early 2000s model and looked similar to that one, maybe a little more sportier, it ran pretty good. I think it was a 2 stroke, I could be mistaken or he didn't know what he had but I'm pretty sure he said it was a 2 stroke. It didn't sound like a conventional 2 stroke like a 250R or any others but it was an automatic and wasn't a racing 4 wheeler so it didn't scream but I don't remember it sounding like this one. But I rode it a couple times and I liked the fact it was an automatic, makes trail riding more fun.

@clok1966 Год назад

400 were 2 strokes the 500 were 4 strokes if I remember right, been a long time.. had a few with bad transmissions (must have been common as I had a couple), or the 4WD didnt work (like this one). pretty easy fix (4WD), taking the transmission out not so fun.

@rmx01indiana 5 месяцев назад

I do not miss repairing my old Polaris 400 Sport. From quirky design flaws to the OEM parts just not holding up thru race conditions. Decent quads for just tooling around the house or farm, but I would not recommend racing them

Yeah I picked up my 2003 Suzuki Vinson 500 from someone on CL. He said all it needed was the rear break fixed. Never mentioned that the dang frame was bent. You literally had to cock the handle bars in one direction to go straight and because of the bend the front wheels were cambered off to one side. He also said it was a 2006. People are freaking liars when it comes to selling things.
