Default BEST ATV FOR ME?

Hi I am 15 going on 16, I am pretty big, around 6'0 and 230 lbs, I am mainly interested in a Sports bike not the working ones with the grills and everything on them. I am probally would buy a used bike for my first bike but of coarse one in good condition n less then a 2002 proboly, I just wanted to know what would be the best bike around to get for me, I was thinking of a 400ex?, and I really don't want to spend more then 3,000. Thanks.

I'm 6'1", 205 (working on that....) and am also leaning towards a used 400EX, if that helps you any. I've taken a couple on test drives and they seemed to fit fine and have enough oomph for my novice status.

I'd try to get a used 400ex for $3000. or under. If you can't find a decent 400ex you might have to settle for a Warrior.

You have to be very careful when buying a used atv, especially a 400ex. Thes have usually been ridden hard and put away wet. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Take someone with you who knows something about motors and let them listen to er.

With all the new big bore atvs coming out you may find a 400 for less than 3k. A 300ex may be alittle small for you and anything bigger is prolly too new for you to afford.
