ok my lil bro has this one friend who's older brother would sell me his warrior(or any1 really), im not sure what year model but it wus a special edition one, like yellow and black and charcoal colored, i think its a 97 or 98 model....... but the first time he told me he would sell it he said 1,400....... also the only way u can tell that warrior is that old is by lookin at the tires(they are bald but have lasted that long)...... its been takin care of good, and he hardly never rides it...... but im not sure if the price is still the same at one point he wus sayin he wanted 3 grand for it but i wouldnt touch it if he wanted that much, but also if u were tired of ridin a recon would u buy a warrior(i know alota people hate warriors)

sorry for such long post i got carried away

i would get it but i dont like 2 strokes..... i mean i used to ride a banshee all the time but it always needed rebuilding.. i dont know if a 250r is the same way but im just not into 2 strokes....... but if i found a good one for a good price u can bet that i'd buy it

also the reason i wus considerin buy this warrior wus to prove to some of my friends that im not spoiled..... i work for everything i get... so if i bought this thing i would prove to them that i buy things on my own, not just ask my parents for one and keep on and on about it til i get it

I say if you can get it for under 2 grand I say go for it. Warriors aren't the best but the are pretty reliable. You can keep it stock save ur money and buy a top of the line quad in a few years. Then you'll have an extra quad for the GF or any buddies that don't have one cause ridin by yourself sucks.

ya no kidding. nice Zs with a few go for about 4 grand. exs are a little lower. i say go for the warrior. it is one of the most bullet proof motors built and it can be competive in trails and such but not so much on an mx track.

yea thats why i thought about it in the first place becus i know there stout in the trails with a good rider, which i consider my self to be a pretty good rider(i ride all kinda 4 wheelers, i know what there all like).... but if i can sell my recon i'll have right at 3 grand then i can work a lil more and buy a nice 400ex
