I need some help.

I am looking into purchasing a quad for my niece. She is 17 100lbs about 5'2". The only quad she has ever ridden was a yamaha breeze at Pismo. She tried to ride my 400EX but it scared her to much....plus she has problems working the clutch....ok...any clutch.

She just likes to ride...no racing.

Would a 250EX work? Or something else?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

the 250ex is alot mellower than the z250 as long as she doesnt want to go fast the 250ex is good. ive ridden the ex and the z i think that the ex is a little more stable... if she needs the auto clutch the 250ex is the way to go but if she learns to clutch get the 300 ex is way better. (im sick of my 250ex)

She has only been on a 125 breeze...so she is not into power...or speed...sounds like the EX would work for her.

if you could teach her to ride a 300ex it would be a lot better because she would probally get bored of the 250 and there is not all that many motor modes for them.
