I've owned them both and i like the 300 much better. They are about the same in power and performance. The blaster has a little more top end thats about it. The honda handles better, has better brakes, electric start, and reverse, on top of that its a honda. The one plus about the blaster is they finally have brakes that work, which should have been put on there a long time ago. If your just not happy with the performance of the 300 i dont think you will be happy with a blaster either. You may want to look into a 250r, 400ex, or z400.

I hear the blaster tho with the same amout of work done to a 300 could beat it. and i also hear with intake and exhasut i could keep up with a stock 400?

my friend had his blaster done up with maybe 1500 in motor mods and was pulling very trick 250rs off the line and could keep up with them pretty well through most of the race, rider is also a big part in that since he could pretyy consistintly place 3rd in the pro class on a stock warrior at one of our local race circuits.

but then also a 2 stroke would be more matience than a 4 stroke so if that is something you dont like to do then got with the 300ex.

let us know what u decide

a blaster is a step down from the 300ex! The 300ex is better in any type of riding. I say spend that $1,000 on the 300...

well, i have both, as everyone knows, my 300 is heavily modded.

if your serious about racing, its easier to win on a 300ex, but a blaster is a much more fun quad to ride and you can make it smoke a 300ex

i say get a 300ex, cuz i ride with pple who have blasters and i smoke them every time...plus they r easy to handle... but maybe thats cuz mine is in a 250R frame...and my brother has a 300 and it jumps really nice and easy to do wheelies if u like that kinda stuff....
