The overdrive is actually a reverse overdrive it so you can go as fast in Reverse as you can go forwards you just have to hold that button down and it'll go back backwards really fast
Very cool vid...thanks for sharing! ...just did top end on mine....older bout 98> live in pines,,dog and I dig just dig going slow and checking out pines in snow..dontgetbetterthan that?...great little quad!!..don't need much better....fun shit...
I have a 2002 Blue trail blazer and it’s the rarest of the rarest. White and yellows are common, all red are uncommon, and blue ones are the rarest of the rarest. I put a 500 watt stereo on mine, underglow, after market air filter
oh yeah? well mine is from 1990 which was the first model year and the date on the bottom of the gas tank is in 1989 so it was probably one of the first trailblazers ever built. its still running too
@@ogonbio8145 haha... yea mine died right after that.. recoil went out, automatic trans slipping, fucked up the electrical stuff, bald tires, bent rims, hopefully once i get off probation it’s gonna be fixed up by a family member to has a shop and is a professional on polaris stuff
@@Buick_the_rd.master the transmissions on these quads are belt driven so if yours is slipping it’s actually your belt slipping. You might just have to replace your belt which you can do urself it’s behind the cover on the left side of the engine good luck bro
I just got a 96 like this and know nothing about them but was told if I didn’t hold the over ride button to put it into reverse that it will grind and quit is that normal or what would cause that?
The over drive is just so you get full power in reverse, otherwise it’s limited . Mine doesn’t grind at all in reverse, might have something wrong with the trans or even maybe the clutch. Hard to say, but that’s def not normal
Your brake lines and oil lines look to be redone and it sounds like your starting to get a lot of backfire probably could use a rebuild but it's in really good shape it's been takin care of and they usually respond quickly if you find your not reaching full speed noticably quick check your drive belt it could be getting worn down they're a great machine but they have they're own little problems that can build up if you feel your machine slowing down to or its bogging out its mostlikly the jets in the carb these things cog up like crazy I've had the same trailblazer for about 12 years and it's just a machine that takes little things every so often and I've never heard anyone complain about them
what tires are on the back they look like the ones I have on my wife's 1996 polaris trail boss 250 I have a 1983 Honda 200s three Wheeler and my son rides a 1994 manco dingo buggy 8hp Briggs Stratton
Ambush, I'm not sure of the size, I think 22x11x10 or something like that. My buddy as a 250ex that we rip around on all the time, and that buggy sounds fun, I'd have loved that as a kid
If you don't use the right oil, it won't mix with the fuel correctly, and can cause the engine to run a little rich, and also not lubricate the engine properly. That could be causing it, but it's unlikely since the oil is mixed automatically but a pump on the machine. These engines are relatively simple, and aren't liquid cooled so there's no possibility of any issues there. Some times too if you push it really hard while riding it for long periods of time, it'll overheat. No way to prevent that, other than just taking it easier.
@@billreacts-n4x nope I found information and in 1990 it came with forward only transmission there’s no gear selector you just start it with the parking brake on so it doesn’t roll away
+vb7200 dude I have the same 4-wheeler and on the front above the yellow scrape plate there should be a mettle plate that connects scrape plate to the plastic front part that has the 250 on it, it goes where the big opening is on the front do stuff can't get into the shocks,brakes and stuff like that underneath the plastic panel.
Override is a button u hold in reverse which adds power so more Speed in reverse I️ use it all the time
That yellow button is a reverse override u hold it in reverse to go past the limiter for more power
Ya ...can be scary.look out going backwards,,,heheheh
Highpinesnow yeaaa
The yellow override button is for more speed while reversing.
Good lil atv, no water pump or radiator to go bad. Can get more h.p. out of it to make it spunky enuff for an adult rider too!
Override is four wheel drive in reverse I’ve had to use it before

my trailblazer is a 1990 and in that year it came with a "forward only" transmission so i cant relate
You can hold the front break , when in gear . Then you can start it in gear
BREAK?!?!! Hahahaha. Dope.
@@SonnyGTA i mean ik polaris rear break are non existent but 😂
the Polaris TrailBlazer was my first quad tbh lol
Same, it's a very good machine.
Never have and i have been on an all day ride from 8 to 5 with a few very short breaks with my 04
I had a predator 90 as my first atv when I was real young
Mine too and still is

I have one at home but,the both tires are flat on the rear.

It has Ambush tires all around. They're very good tires.

He actually said the name in the video AND pointed to the name. Did you watch this with the sound off and your eyes closed?
Ever had a problem with these overheating?
Nope. It doesn't run hot at all.
vb7200 any idea why that could be happening to mine?

@@vb7200 Polaris Man!
Would one of these be worth $800 needing a top end rebuild?
No.
It is 2001
45th anniversary was 2000 model year.
overdrive is for reverse
anybody else have one of these with a forward only transmission
Yours is just broken
@@billreacts-n4x nope I found information and in 1990 it came with forward only transmission there’s no gear selector you just start it with the parking brake on so it doesn’t roll away
ITS OVERRIDE!!!! ITS SO YOU CAN GO FULL THROTTLE IN REVERSE!!!!
I know that now, it's pretty useful.
Fun quad to ride and its in great shape. Still love my scrambler 400 though 🔥🔥

U know he rides it wrong when u don’t see any drift marks lol
