Thats interesting. The way the transmission works is kind of cool. I liked the course they were going through at the end. All the little hill things they turn on. I love doing that.

Thanks, I just happen to do a search on Ebay and seen it ( first time searching this particular search ). I seen the title and thought hmmmmm. As soon as I seen the auction I knew I would probably own it. He had a $.99 starting bid, with 3-4 days left and only 2 views. I though man someone is going to jump on this one. So I emailed the seller and as him if he had a BIN? He replied "It does now!" I about crapped when he put a $1.99 BIN. I couldn't hit the BIN fast enough. To me this is one of those "Great Finds" on Ebay.Originally Posted by chrisr200x

I noticed that trike in the video didn't seem to corner that well. The one shot in the vid he kinda just disapeared off the screen! lol.
You got one don't you howdy? How does it handle? I've been intrested in these since I first seen one on this site. I couldn't really hear anything on the video. (probably something wrong with my speakers. does it have reverse? Any other info you can supply would be helpful. I know where there is one sitting in the back of someones yard. I've been eyeing it for a while but it is rough. are parts hard to find?
Thats a cool video! The only problem is that now I want to rideand I won't be back hoem until thanksgiving.

No sound? Can anyone else hear the sound?Originally Posted by chrisr200x
I actually have 3 of them ( 1 runner, 1 going to be a runner, and 1 parts machine ). Parts are faily hard to come by, when you do find them they can be costly. If your not going to get that one you know of, get me some info on it. I am trying to get 3-4 running machines together.
Also, If you come to TF next year you will be able to test ride a Polaris Trike. I am sure there will be 3 and possibly 5 of them there.

I'll check into it for you. I should be heading down that way within the next to weeks. I seen it everytime I go to my relatives. I don't see it going anywhere anytime soon as it's been sitting there for the last couple years.
Thats the most entertaining thing I've seen in years Howdy. Thank You. I love how they show that LT230S getting spanked, too funny. Those guys were boogying.

That video would actully convince a noobie that those machines were in fact superior to the Big 3 offerings. Sounds good, looks good, but come on...
I think he bit it too! lol If he would have negotiated that corner, they would have included it for sure...woulda looked cool.
Good find Howdy.
wow, those machines looks pretty quick!
Awesome vid Howdy, thanks for posting it here! Yes the sound does work. Really cool action footage of the Scrambler trike, makes me want to rock one of those bad boys out on the trails. That is a real gem, and the best part was the price!![]()

Nice find Howdy. They make it sound like it was the greatest thing out there.
Chainsaw, I watched (4:55) a few times,He slid way out but to me it didnt look like he was going to crash.Maybe slided to a stop and took off again.I dont think the clip was purposely cut there but I could be wrong.
I've ridden Howdy's polaris scrambler a few times.For all around riding it is the smoothest and most comfortable trike I've been on,Shifting and acceleration are smoother than some newer and new polaris 4x4's I've ridden.When you sit on it,you know your on a polaris.The seat and gas tank area are much wider than most japanese trikes.It also handled alot better than I expected.I'm not sure what it has for suspension but it takes the bumps pretty good for it being big and heavy.This is one polaris I have to give a thumbs up.
