Ok, I just started getting into wanting to race... im 15, and by the time over the summer i get enough money I can get anythign under 5,000 $... I really want to start racing ATV's... I never really got into dirtbikes after riding a yamaha yz80 it really didn't intrest me... but when i first got on a fourwheeler, i knew it was somthing i really wanted to do... right now i have a utility fourwheeler, it goes 60 mph... but thats to easy to max... i need something Fast with acceleration/speed... I was looking around for a 400ex but is a Bombardier good?? or give me some helpful hints/ideas


Well, Acutally... I'll tell you how a drive. I drive normally 50-60 if im driving like crazying, i knew how to do sharp corners.... i need a light atv to get around sharp corners and i can jump with, im not really experianced to jump with atvs yet but im ready, Last time i jumped with an atv was with mine.. i bought mine for 1500$ exellent condition and first day i got it i drove it... like a bad outta hell ... i was jumping like 5 foot jumps and going 60... than i broke my shock... i was pretty upset... but i got over it... but im looking for somthing that can match up with my riding etc.

Reply ASAP. Thanks.!

 

well, sicne you seem a little loyal to Honda, there fastest accelerating ATV is the new 450r, but I doubt you'll find one for under 5,000 for a while. If you could venture from Honda, a KFX/Z400 would work too for your kind of riding and from what I hear is a little better than a 400ex.

 

new or used 4 stroke or two stoke? what type of racing?

 

Fix up a 250r those things are fast and light. Somehwere from 1988-1990? I think those are the best years, i'm not sure though. A lot of racers are going 4 stroke, maybe a 400ex with a big bore kit. I'm not sure about that one, i made it up on the spot. I think the 250r would be the best though.
