i can tell you now if i save up for a new quad it will probably be something used. i don't want the new yamaha and i won't want the new honda if it comes out. i don't need something race ready since i won't race. so any other suggestians

u can find a lot of good used quads out there...if u want more power go with a used 400ex...im sure u can find a good one and if u have money left over or if u keep saving then u can make it a lil more powerful

some dune riding but mostly at a local river. so its a combination of sand and water.

yeah really in all honestly i might do this. i don't really need a whole lot of power i would just like more than i have. if i got a 400ex i wouldn't probably ever do anything to it except change the oil and replace the stuff that wears out. i really shouldn't have modded my 300ex but i just did it to have something to do. i really don't care how it looks or how fast it goes. as long as its reliable handles good and i can trust to do anything on it.

yeah one of the guys i ride with (or should i say rode with) has a banshee and it doesn't do worth a flip. my friend with a 400ex does the best and then me and my dad with his warrior and my 300.

like i said earlier i don't really care to much about speed. i just want something with better suspension longer wheelbase maybe a little more hp and stuff. so i'm not sure its even worth putting all that money in a 300 just to make it as good as a 400ex, when i could start there and leave it, or make it better if i want.

save and get a different quad.. i outgrew my 250x so fast..... it wasnt worth trying to spend all that money just for it to be halfway competitive
