Save your money and drop the Blaster idea. If you are a 12 year old midget they might be fun. Dead serious, a stock Blaster is ungodly horrible in every possible way. Pipe it out, still pretty bad. After about a few thousand in suspension and engine modifications, they fit my standards for an OK quad. That is comparing to a stock 400ex:o .

I'm sorry, but I hate Blasters so much...a friend of mine has one and it is nothing but a piece of crap, he's got a lot of money into it and I still hate riding it. When I'm on it I feel so cramped I can't believe he feels comfortable on it, also when I get back on my 400ex it feels so much more powerful with just a slip-on pipe.

for your size, you will love a blaster. your best bet is to buy a 2003 model or newer since they have the hydro brakes. the stock shocks do suck, and you will probably want to get rid of the oil injector before it quits and blow the motor.

everyone that is saying they are slow and unreliable is dead wrong. mine has a pipe and air filter and would give a 330ex a run for its money ( i know, because i had a 350ex that smoked 330's) and its been the most reliable quad ive had. keep up on the maintenance and it wont let you down. it will only treat you as good as you treat it

Just stating my honest opinion, and this isn't a biased opinion because I have ridden a Blaster...I don't go by what other people say or think.

A Blaster could NEVER smoke a 450R, plain and simple. The guy on the 450R would have to be a horrible rider, asbolutely horrible to be beat by the Blaster. And for a drag, a Blaster could only take on a 450R if it had a different engine it.

a nice modded 300ex nothing big would be awsome for you they have reverse and there not dog slow but there not fast as hell.

you have not done much resaerch on blasters i assume? all 240 kits push about 42 horse, wich is right at stock 450r power, not to mention a blasty is quite a bit lighter. who cares anyway tho, its all rider, i passed a 450r on the mx track at the 12 hours on a damn kymco250

Please do a little research before you post. If 4-strokes are so much more faster than 4-strokes, why are they letting 250cc 4-strokes in the 125cc 2-stroke class, or 450cc 4-strokes in the 250cc 2-stroke?:cool:

Well, I'm glad you never got a Blaster.

Whoever thinks Blasters can be made into something have something wrong with them.

A friend of mine has a completely modded out Blaster and I can absolutely waste him with my 400ex...which just has a slip-on exhaust. It's not rider either, he's pretty damn good at riding.

haha.... you beat me on dirt, which is pretty easy when you have a broad powerband that doesnt spin like crazy on that loose gravel (dirt road), and you have an extra 80lbs helping to get power to the ground. i think you need to tell them what happend when we got on tar... or maybe you werent on your throttle the whole way?:rolleyes: a blaster couldnt be made to compete with a 450r? ha, sure it can.. but it wouldnt be worth it. they are making blasters with 50hp and counting. thats about .16hp/lb, where as my blaster is making close to .1hp/lb.... i like those ratios, its all about what you want to ride, hell yeah 450r's are awesome and can smoke most blasters with ease... i would hope so, but 400's are an easy target, but once they start getting some heavy mods into them we cant touch them... oh well, i like throwing it around.

make sure you get the frame gusseted(weak in some places), the stock shocks suck balls, ditch the stock headlight unless you got an 03+ modell, flip the front rims to help make it more balanced, ditch oil injector, and possibly cut the front fenders ... just cause i think they look better like that

I dont think so. I dynoed my 2-stroke weedwacker against my buddies 250ex and the weedwacker had a better curve throught the RPM's...

Ill bet it did:p

LMAO, dynoed a weedwacker.:p

Theres a vid out there of a 2001 mild ported, stock carb, toomey pipe, not even jetted right blaster waxing a stock 400ex.

Wasting Waxing all the same thing.

I've ridden a 400ex and hate there power, although i have never ridden a blaster, lol.

Okay, I beat him.

Also I started out on the sandy part of the road, don't know if you were on sand also but I spun through the first 4 gears and still was keeping up with you and took you in 5th gear. Now we just need to drag on clean pavement.

ahh, should've seen that excuse coming(yes i was on the sand to) ... i guess i wouldnt admit to getting my *** kicked by a blaster either (well until i topped out, but who the hell cares about top speed?)

not trying to sound like an ***** but i dont think anyone cares if your blaster is faster than his 400 or vice versa.
