I have 3 sport quad & 1 4x4, when people ask how many quads I have I say 3
The Raptor you have to pick your lines way more carefully, which I find way more fun!
We know a lot of people feel the same way. Maybe some of us.
2 totally different quads I will take the raptor for my style
Two good choices. Wish we could have both.
I got a 700 raptor 2015 se
Same cuz its lighter and i like the single cyl 700 horse power
U like to work on shit or not. Yamaha 👍
@@i9mm650 06 se, 🤙
Glad to see this channel is still showing sport atvs some love
Sport ATVs are our favorite segment and if there were more available we would do a lot more content on them. We have more sport quad content coming.
Great review, reviewing two different machines is necessary at times and this video is proof. Personally I can afford both machines and wanted to see a video on these two monsters. Flawless work fellas.
Glad we could deliver. Big thanks for the positivity!
Excellent commentary...I was distracted by the amazing trail! Love the outdoors you are lucky to have that trail. Good job crew🙂
Thanks Marauder. The trails certainly looks good in the fall. A little less defined but beautiful color. It'd be fun to see what your thoughts on the scrambler.
I had the raptor...she was tired and so was I... currently on the scrambler 850! Both are awesome. Miss the raptor now and then
Awesome series of videos!! Glad to be a part of the test crew, ripping the scrambler was a blast 🇺🇸
Really glad you were a part of it. I'm sure you'll be in many more.
Yes awesome job bro, blast to ride I'm sure. Someday I will have.. honestly the sportsman 1000, for the storage capacity and utility features I agree. Be safe ✌️
Solid review video, thanks! 👍
Finally it has arrived i get my 2021 Scrambler 1000 S today!!! 😆
That thing is wild so freakn wide!
Great video boys🤘
This is the exact comparison I wanted, thanks. I ride a Raptor and its awesome, but it wears you out. You fellas convinced me I need to step up to a Scrambler 850. Standard ATV width too.
Happy to help! If you're coming from a sport atv and you don't need the monstrous ground clearance then the Scrambler 850 is a good option.. We're currently building a Sportsman 1000 and everything we're doing to it would be relevant to the Scrambler 850
Your right, SE Ky has some unbelievable trails.
No Doubt.
Great video, makes total sense. The trails I ride are wide and have lots of UTVs. 15 grand and blue collar people, same as the snowmobile market. Great job.
Really glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Haha you guys cracked me up towards the end 🤣
Hell freaking yea!!!! What a blast ripping the baddest wheelers out!
You guys really put on a great series. Anyone who watches these videos will understand where the Scrambler S shines.
I agree I would like to see the cheaper market filled again for the younger riders. I miss all the old sport quads that were available hell I loved my 450r. Now I got a side by side and am older and lazy lol. But I do really miss my sport quads no doubt about it. Nothing like blasting through gears.
Such a great comment. We forgive you for getting in a cage. Just kidding we have fun in them too.
Jump in a YXZ!
I loved, and miss sport quads myself. Even after a few SXS's. The YXZ is the best mix of sport quad and roll cage!

Thanks for all the Information much appreciated 👍 👍
I remember you guys first talking about the 55 inch width and you thought it was to wide. I was like what!!!!!??? A long travel 4x4 quad that's a recipe for awesomeness!! I knew you would think different after you rode the future of 4x4 quads. More suspension equals more articulation, clearance, stability and big deal go a little slower through tight stuff. Honestly how many spots could you not make it through maybe 2 or 3 times? Back east you have that heavy condensed woods, I know I lived in north carolina but I would make it fit. I like your guys enthusiasm you remind me of me haha!
All good points brother 👍
Enjoyed... 👍👍👍
i just started to get back into 4 wheeler riding and his statement on the middle of the road quads is definitely true. there is a youth other 90 - 200cc options, that are really lacking. then it immediately jumps to 500cc and up. yeah, i know there is a few 300s in there, but i remember when i was 14, there was a huge market all across the board for all types of riders. I don't knock the liter 4 wheelers, but i can tell you they really aren't needed. they should look to fill the middle of the road again and make pricing a bit more friendly. but that's just me. thanks for the review.
Another awesome video 😎
Chad Brian and Brent did an excellent job on this series. It is been a lot of fun to watch.
Great review thanks 😊
I can’t wait for this
We hope you'll be back to watch it with us.
Also as for the cvt I love it! I never thought I would get use to it when I stepped into the can-am world. I miss slamming through the gears ⚙ and often wonder what my 19 outlander 1k xmr would be like if it had the traditional style clutched transmission. I don't know but I believe the cvt is the best way to go for the mud life.
I never got use to the belt smoking 🚬😕
Great video agan thanks 👍
Glad you enjoyed it. More great videos to come.
Harlan county Kentucky is where manufacturers should test all their machines.
Braaaaaap! Lets goooo!!!!!
Tomorrow night, we'll go.
hahahah loved this break down and y'all humor ... this episode made me subscribe :)
We will try to make sure and bring you more content like this.
@@ATVonDemand thanks much.. I'll now getting into atvs and these vidoes are helping me make a decision as to which machine to buy!!👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
Liked the explanation of how we got to where we are at today.
Polaris has never been afraid to try new things.
I think it was actually a good comparison. Although I believe the scrambler is probably more suited for open terrain like the dunes or something.
Love the out takes bloopers. LOL!
Excellent video as usual my friend!
Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts. Scrambler is definitely more at home in wide open torain or super gnarly terrain. Chad and the guys just wanted to try and show it in as many different scenarios as possible.
You Guys Rock!
Finally! I have the same raptor 700 and I've been waiting to see that bumper on the wht/blk raptor, ill definitely be going with pro armor instead
Great video
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it.
Which would you rather have sitting in your garage, the Raptor 700 or the Scrambler S? Make sure to watch our first 3 episodes of the Polaris Scrambler S series to learn all bout ATVing's king of rough terrain.
Raptor
Scrambler
Sportsman S!!🤑🍻😎
Scrambler S above ALL!!!!
Raptor 700r
I think these are both awesome machines! I have a raptor 700 and love it. The scrambler is also an amazing machine, but the thing that kills it for me is not having a manual transmission with a clutch. Ive always riden sport quads with a manual transmission, and the lack of that is one of the reasons I can't get into the new era of 4x4 sport quads. 😂😂
We totally agree. In the end it's all about what you like best.
I said the same thing but after selling my raptor and buying the scrambler s and going out on a few rides I know I’ve made the right decision yea I miss it but it don’t compare
700R #1
rode a quad everywhere as a young buck, gotta grab another to put beside the outlander
Check out the other vis from this series, they compare the Scrambler directly to the Outlander
Awesome video, the humor was great.
That machine as well as the Sportsman S would be perfect on some of the Colorado trails I’ve been on. If I were to choose between the Scrambler S and the Raptor, I would pick the Scrambler S. Simply because of the rocky terrain I ride on.
The Scrambler is certainly perfect for the rocks.. It would be a blast on the trails you ride
I have nothing to compare it to but we walked into a dealership after knowing how far behind production is and bought what was available! Scrambler 850 has some serious get up and go and I Love it! Our other is a Sportsman 570, it's more plush and has more utility function but not even close to being as fun to ride.
The 850 is great, has more than enough power for almost anyone. Have a ball on your Scrambler.
I think Scrambler is another type of ATV, and it is more fun to drive, raptor is more sporty, both are beautiful machines.
We would have to concur.
15k is a base model scrambler S, add bumpers, winch, at 18k+ out the door, add some 14 inch rims and tires its more like 20k+ this is from Polaris' web site.
These guys are awesome.
We concur
I keep watching scrambler reviews this thing is just insane, kinda too big but the proportion r perfect 👌🏼 it’s honestly just something in its own. Just wish the raptor came 4x4? And wider!
You can see the front tires just as good on the sportsman 1000S. I own it and its dang near perfect. I ride tight trails atv parks and all and I have yet to find any place it wouldn't fit or any place it wasn't able to go and do it great. Just had to point that out. The same way you see the front tires on the scrambler its just the same on the sportsman 1000S. It's hands down the best ride performance and reliability you can pay for. Love my bike !!!! Keep up the good work guys.
That scrambler 1000 s is a beast!!! My dad has a yfz 450 and I have a brute force 750 we trade when we ride all the time, I've ridden manuals for years but I gotta say it is nice to just stab the throttle and go, my heart lies with big bore utility quads
There are a lot of riders out there that are in agreement with you hence the number of cvts on the market. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts.
@@ATVonDemandhaha I guess your right, great content keep it up 👍
Great video…
Glad you enjoyed it.
I love u guys for keeping it real you’re the best
We're certainly glad you think so. Here's some love back.
Raptor Life 🦾🦾🦾🦾🦾...Awesome video
I’m over in leslie county lol love the content
love ur vids. wish ud compared it to a yfz450. mine has 51in wheel base from the edge of rear tires in the back. not sure if thats stock or not. but shes wide and stable
Awesome video guys Chad I agree with flying Brain CVT transmission is best because you don’t have to worry about what gear your in when riding also I ride at State parks that have a maximum width of 50 inch for ATVS so the Scrambler would limit me to riding area’s and the price is to high 15 grand add 5 more grand and I could purchase the new Yamaha RMAX 1000 !!!!!!
Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for sharing your thoughts we enjoy seeing them.
I'm a sport quad kinda guy but that Scrambler 1000S is screaming my name.
Raptor 700 with the precision steering stabilizer can handle the trails super well
🤣 love the ending! I absolutely love the 55" scrambler and sportsman. If I were to get one .... I would have to have both. But if I have to choose it would be the sportsman simply because of the utility side. As is the reason I wound up getting the outlander when I was choosing between it an the Renegade. However I still want a Renegade. An when I can I will be adding one. Awesome video guys!
We're really happy you enjoyed it. We imagine that a lot of riders have a tough time choosing between the Sportsman and the Scrambler or The Outlander and the Renegade
Renegade plays well and works very well i had a outlander and the Renegade does everything the outlander does RENEGADE XXC 1000!
Lol 😂 You guys are awesome
Difference is the yamaha will always make it home without a breakdown like the polaris
I have a 2020 scrambler and it’s totally worth it… BUY ONE NOW!!!!!!
You heard the man!
That scrambler s is very clean
It's the Slick Products Shine and Protectant
Nice machines but I will def take a new Raptor 700R-SE for my personal needs an type of riding! #SAVESPORTQUADS
Love it, u guys are great 👍🏻. ps just got a raptor 😍🙌
Enjoy it. We love ours.
I would definitely take the 700 for my style and it’s a lot simpler to take care of then a scrambler
Outty max xt 650 here, whenever I come
Across one these tiny sport quad I think its cute but help them when they get stuck in tiny mud pit or snowy trails 😝
Very true but an intermediate trail conditions they will run away.
@@ATVonDemand speed limit is 50 on trails here in Quebec, Canada :p
things a beast! Makes the Raptor look like a 90
Yeah, a fast 90.
And witht he 225 lb weight capacity being exceeded at that!!!! slick machine
The solid rear axel makes riding fast speeds on uneven tracks very unpredictable. It's not fun when the rear tire hits an inside curve bump and tries to do a barrel roll.
"DON'T YOU HAVE ONE?!"
"SHHH!" 😘
😂
HAHA you caught that?
@@ATVonDemand Yes'sir!
hoping they didnt discontinue the raptor. No announcements were made for a 2021 model
They didn't.. They don't have any competition so they don't need to rush the lineup.. It got rona'd is all 👍
Yamaha says it has not been discontinued.
Sold out around the country because of corona, it’s still a high demand machine. Yamaha didn’t stop the banshee, after all the others quit. The market is huge when your the only one
@@dirtobsexxionvlogs4892 awesome news, glad to hear I may still have a chance at a new one when things blow over
I don't see Yamaha shutting down these lines ever. They are the only ones still making them and they sell very well still. I wish the others wouldn't have dropped out honestly it's always nice to have a little competition even though Yamahas machines are plenty capable and reliable.
Do you ATV guys think anyone will build an aftermarket roll cage for the Scrambler S?
OMG here we go again, y'all are some trolls
It's already so easy to ride, no need to ruin it.
These On Demand guys are always starting crap!
@@flyingbriando5521 Too much talent makes those cagers jealous.
Looking forward to renegade vs raptor, that was something I actually wanted before I bought my renegade because I really debated between them. Happy with my choice though!
We Bert. Congrats on your Renegade.
@@ATVonDemand thanks! I watched a lot of your videos debating between the 450 and the raptor, settled then on raptor vs renegade and the Renny won out. Pretty impressed with jt
Had 2 renegades very fun but raptor is so light it flies like a bird and lands like pillow just more fun
I’m a dirt bike guy myself and believe I always will but my dad said he’s looking for a quad and wants me to look into them while he’s working out of state. He needs one that’s got for utility type capabilities with a bit smaller engine buuuuut I think imma suggest a scrambler 😉
Alterior motives! If he wants it for utility work than have him look at the sportsman S.
@@ATVonDemand will do, thank you and I just subscribed. Love the content man.
I got 400ex got couple things on it. I’m gonna add Alba racing wheels with mud plug and empire exaust and sell it for 450r after
Unless you're going to take those Wheels to the 450R it doesn't make sense to spend money on upgrades if you are just going to sell it. Upgrades usually don't make that much difference on the used Market
Still riding the ole fat man quad ds650 and lovin it ever have to get another it’ll be a raptor.
I don't know if any of us have had the chance on staff to write a ds650. Really would like to try one. I have heard they are one of the most comfortable sport quads ever made.
Wish you guys had the sportsman S in this series. Good job with the videos. Can't wait to see what's next
Thanks brother! I'm personally looking forward to the renegade test
I will say the raptor is very capable machine last weekend i was hanging with 4x4 quads on some very hard core terrain. It was a rough ride but worth it
You really have to ride a high powered scrambler or renegade to understand truly the power and comfort they supply. It’s nice to have a sport quad in the stable but once you ride one of the 4x4’s you’ll definitely want to buy one as well.
@@woodenyasayso3101 iv ridden a few high hp 4x4s they are comfortable on the rough stuff but they just dont excite me like my raptor dose.
@@LSDdreams808 I’ve only ridden my 2011 renegade 800 for a total of 2 hours and it’s just thrilling as my outlaw 525 irs or Kfx450r 🤷🏽♂️😬😂😂
I’d like to see someone race it ... prolly go viral
It would have to be a race out west. Something like a Worcs series or best in the desert.
I have a 660 raptor and scrambler 500
Sport quads all the way💪
We certainly have fun on them.
@@ATVonDemand I have had a lot of people tell me I need a 4x4 for winter my buddy has a 2018 sportsman 570 and he can't go the places I go most of the time he just sinks
Banging through the gears although fun gets old FAST!!
You don't have to shift much on a raptor.
Do you guys have any inside info on why they cancelled the scrambler S?
I have both of these machines. 2015 raptor since new, Never had an issue no matter what I put it threw. Purchased a 2020 scrambler last year and with minimal usage I’ve already blew through 3 rear axles and just had to replace the belt. My question for you guys is are you running stock axles?
Yes, we use stock axles. We have a few hundred miles on the unit and have had no axle or belt issues. I think you would agree that we haven't been essay on the Scramble if you've watched this series. How did you break your axles, just curious?
Hello !!!! super video !
Unfortunetly in France no Gas supensions on scrambler xps.... 😣 ...very bad driving... what is the tyre on xps please ? AWESOME TYRE !
What are those rims you have on the scrambler?
Loved these episodes. But still… where is comparison with XXC? 😭😭😭
😎👍
Now that raptor is fast put it up against a yamaha banshee 350 twin that's a good comparison
Okay.
The photographer side of me has to ask; what camera are you using for your b-roll and silky smooth slow-mo shots?
⬅️⬆️↗️ Team Yamaha Raptor 700R
Love the Raptor. Love them both actually.
I have a Polaris Outlaw 525IRS. I just bought a Sportsman (vs a Scrambler or Renegade surprisingly) to balance out my needs and address some of the shortcomings of the Outlaw. I honestly think there’s room for another version of a sport/utility hybrid in the market. If my Outlaw had bigger fenders and more “lugging” capability it’d be perfect for me. The kinds of conditions I want to ride it in (due to its ground clearance, suspension, and torque) are begging for components that allow for slower, messier terrain . The Outlaw doesn’t need AWD or belt drive, but a bit more comfort, extra protection from mud and water, and fewer flame outs on technical terrain (perhaps a big bore 2 stroke mill) would be great (also a pipe dream). If someone built a KTM XC/XC-W version of an ATV with a torquey 2 cycle 500cc engine, I’d be all over it.
Have you geared your machine down a bit? Having filmed and ridden The 525 IRS and the 525S, 1st gear is too tall for technical Technical rriting. Adding a couple teeth to the rear sprocket Would probably be our 1st mod. There is a guy who races cross country in our area who built a ktm 450 quad powered by a 300 exe motor.
@@ATVonDemand I have thought about it but 5th gear is too short (not much taller than 4th it seems). I could probably stand to compromise some top end speed tho.
I am looking at a new 700R with mods or the S. Both gonna be around the same price. Sticking towards the S.
I've heard something about a solid rear scrambler 850 but I'm not sure as it was a dealer I bout my rzr from. If its true, it would be like the older scrambler with tons more power.
Best exhaust for the 700 is the Monster exhaust
Maybe but i have full exhaust hmf competition 💪 best sound 🔥
Yeah their $19,000 now in 2023
You can get two Raptors for that price.
It’s an Awesome bike, but, can get a good used Truck for $20k
You make a solid point with that two Raptors for the same price.
What boots are you guys wearing?
I want a renegade 1000. I have a 660 raptor. But I declared it as my hill climber. I’d like to have a renegade to play on the trails.
We just finished filming the test on it. The renegade 1000 is a lot of fun.
@@ATVonDemand I’ll be looking for it before long. Be safe!!
I was thinking can am but now I’m really thinking poloris
It's a pain in the @ss changing out the belt... No belt on a Raptor... just saying
We didn't have any problems with the belt but we definitely love us some Raptor.
Yamaha is the best
We certainly like ours.
Yes i Love raptor 700 💪
As a teen I love a sport ATV because you can rip on them. You can do work I ride a Grizzly 660 Ducks Unlimited. I can rip and I like work with it but I am looking into getting a Raptor 700 for work I will still keep my Grizzly 660
Then you will have a great work and play machine and a great play machine. We would be happy with both of those in our garage.
@@ATVonDemand ya
I have a Gen 3 Scrambler, it's an '01 500 engine and trans crossed with a TRX 450R. I was hoping Polaris would build a straight axled, dual a arm'd long travel 700 single. But no.
It would be cool if you make a comparison between the Kawasaki KFX 700 and the Scrambler. ✌️
The part where you said other sport quad can't get passed I'd false. You must have lowered your rear end, I've gone over worse on my stock setup. I ride my 2018 Raptor 700R up more difficult trails, if I could send a video I would
