thinking of a new quad...

[Xater]

I ride a lightly modded blaster and i ride tight trails. I was thinking of upgrading to a 4 poke mabie a rappy 660, yfz, 400ex, somewhere around there... im 15 and have been riding for 6ish years most ill spend is $4000.00 ill probly end up selling the blaster.

For $4000, you can get a nice 450 with a few mods. Or, you could get a nice 400ex for around $2000, and use the rest for suspention or what-not.

ill probly end up getting a 400ex and keeping my blaster ill get around $2000 next summer i dont think i could let myself sell the blaster :ermm:

[firefighterjosh]

I would buy a 400ex and keep the blaster. Maybe in a few more years you can sell both and buy a 450

[HB416EX]

Why keep the Blaster?

I would sell it and get a 450.

[Xater]

theres no where around here to find a 450 used :ermm:
my best bet would be a z400, 400ex, or a banshee.

get a 05 yfz 450 with a duncan fatboy full pipe kit (no spark arrestor) the stock tires are great you'll kill it around 100mph, i do it everyday in Florida !

So you had your fourwheeler in the back of your truck. 100mph:p

Get a 400ex if you ride tight trails because the 450's have a high first gear.

leaving for florida tomorrow...which should i bring, the black or white one?

anyway, the 400ex would be the best choice of the ones you have listed for the type of riding you described...

[tim colston]

Take the white one and smoke him ole style.

[jubileeatv]

It won't go 100mph without gearing changes.:rolleyes:

I just sold my 400ex, and bought a 450r.

Get the 450r.

OR

Get a quad with reverse if you aren't riding competitvely.

[krt400ex]

400EX all the way. there r too many good things to say about this bike.

[06honda450er]

if i where you i would get a 400ex. keep the blaster for sure. i just bought a o6 450er and love it but then two days ago i was at the dealer and say a blaster sitting there with pipes and all decked out and it is bad ***. i get out on the trails and have a great time with the 450 and then i take out the 2 stroke and have a great time with that too. i would not buy a yamaha just for the fact that two of my friends have them and they both locked up tighter than fort knox one day going accross a field. buy a 400ex there a very well built bike.

[Xater]

thanx for the help but my best freind just got a banshee so im needing something that will be able to keep up. i can stay with him on the trails it just when he hits a strait away he pulls away...
the blaster just isnt doing the job any more :(

[ITSTOCK]

My cam/piped/jetted 450r keeps right up with (well it's actually dead even, as in switched riders, and the outcome is never the same, always within inches) piped/jetted +other stuff) banshee's.

It sounds like you need a 450, walk him in the trails, keep the lead OR gain some in the straights. It's a no brainer IMO.

That is, unless you plan on making an all out drag banshee, putting a new cylinder on it, etc. etc. How much work does your friends banshee have?

[Xater]

its stock right now but im not sure what hes going to buy for it because hes a lazy *** and doesnt work.
