what to get

[my03-400ex]

hey... my friend is gonna be working all summer and fall, up until december, and then he plans on buying a quad... we figure he should have about 4k to 45oo to spend by that time... what do you think he should get? hes got a nice big field behind his house, and we plan on making a small track there. i was (obvioulsy.......) thinking 400ex, but i dunno, maybe a banshee, or predator, or whatever. what do ya think?? just looking for opinions!

how old is he and how much expierence has he had?

[my03-400ex]

16, next to none, but he has ridden my 400, and did alright, so he would learn quick

Sell him your 400EX and then you can go out and buy a 450R:D

heh, that would be sweet for sure, but i am trying to scrape up all the pennies i can find right now for a vehicle... oh well. anyway, do you guys think there is any one sport quad (preferably 400cc +, other than a banshee) that is easier to learn on than another? i figure i'll teach him more about ridin a manual clutch over the summer, and letting him ride mine around a bit, as long as he doesn't toast the clutch!

... so does anyone actually have any suggestions??:blah: :blah:
thanks

I would get a 400EX or a KFX/Z400. Both are very easy to ride and he should be able to pick a used one up in that price range easily.

[my03-400ex]

yeah, thats what i was thinking, more or less

400ex, pred to much cash and too much power for no experience.jmo.ed
