Built around Polaris's atv motorcycle platform, the 2011 Polaris Scrambler 500 4X4 utilizes a 498 cc (30.4 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout.
On the scales, the Scrambler 500 4X4 measures 253.6 kg (559 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 889 mm (35 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,232 mm (48.5 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 15.14-liter (4 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
