Default Should i trade in the Quadracer for a new Z??

ok...i have had an 87 Quadsport, sold and bought an 87 Quadracer 250. It has maier plastics and hood, FMF pipe/silencer, torque reeds, fast trekker tires, and shock covers. This thing runs very strong, and still has a lot of compression. The question is...if i sold my quadracer, would i be dissappointed with a Z400?? You must understand i wont have the money after buying a new Z to hop it up...maybe some tires or a pipe, but that would be the extent. I am only 15, and everything i have, and will do, with 4 wheelers comes out of my own money. I have ridden 400EX, 300EX, and blasters alot, but never a Z. Im pretty sure my Quadracer could take a Z in a race, but i know it couldnt in the handling department. I really like my 2 stoke, but after ridin all these new 4 strokes, they just seem so much nicer. Anyone...please put in your 2 cents...unless you are just goin to say something dumb...haha

i sold my 250 tb for a z400.......couldnt be more happier, but i would say sell it now and get the z becuause you dont know what suprises the quadracer could pop up with, then you'll have to shovel out more loot, and hold you back from getting your z. i had a 98 blaster, ran fine for a while and i decided not to sell it, but then the the head gaskets blew, there for i had to spend more money which held me back from getting a new bike. so do yourself a favor and get the z, you'll be more happier with it and like it just as much, i promise you. hope this helps!

Yeah, and as soon as you get the Z, the 450 will be coming out. Then you will want that one. And so on.

First, I wondered if I should sell my LT250 for a Banshee. Then, should I sell it for a 400EX. Then, a Raptor. Then, a Z400. Then, a YFZ 450. Geez, I saved a lot of money so far riding the LT. Getting A arms built for it now. Heck, it's a classic. And beats piped Z400's, gets beat by YFZ's. Get what makes you happy, not what you think you "should" have.

well..even though i will want one of the new 450's....i will not have anywhere close to that much money. I started to think that after the 450's came out, the 400 prices would come way down, so i started to consider one. I know i will have my racer for a little while longer, but im not totally sure if i want to get a new 400. Mostly, i ride trails, any mx i can find, and just messing around in fields and yards. im the only kid i know of that has a 2 stroke, so i like the fact of being different, but i want to start racing mx sometime, and i just want to know what everyone thinks. Thanks.
