Default 300EX, Warrior, Or Wolverine

I Want a sporty atv that is good on trails . Where i ride there is some mud so 4x4 would be nice but not needed. I am 215 pounds and i was wondering if the 300 will be too small. PLEASE give me some advice on what to get.

I like my warrior, but if I had it to do over again it would be a toss up between wolverine and warrior. I wouldnt even consider 300ex, its to small. Dont rule out a 400ex though, they are pretty fun.

never go too small, yer not buying a bag of cheetos. when in doubt go bigger than you think you need, you will not regret it! truly.

I have owned a 300EX. It is the best trail bike out there, because of its smaller size! But, at your weight it would be to small, and you would have to hop it up a lot to get some descent power. I rode a Warrior for years, and have to say the thing always felt big and clunkey!! It was an absolutely terrible technical trail bike. Don't see how the Wolverine could be any better.

I wouldn't recommend any of these!! All these bikes are OLD SCHOOL. As long as we keep buying these old machines, the manufacturers are going to keep giving us OLD MACHINES! We need to boycot outdated technology. There are lots of better choices out there. At your weight, a 400 class or larger bike is the minimum.

reconranger- i dont mean to w.e but every time someone ask a question about the warrior you always say the same thing.. well it may be old school but still look how many of them sell and look at the old ones out tere that are still around. and u never see to many used ones cuz they last forever. and look how many people like them over the warrior.
Fxcdog i would consider a z/kfx400 or 400ex or mayb raptor at your size.. but if u want somethin sporty and decent for mud go for a Polaris Scrambler 400 or 500 4x4 shop around for used stuff u can get a heck of a deal now. im findin rappys around here 02 and 03s for 4500-5500 and they are like new. so shop around and buy what you like and not what people say u have to get. if u feel comphy on it and like it buy it!
