Im not sure what to do i can either buy a used warrior or finance a new raptor 350. What are some of the differences between the two atvs and what would be the better choice? I have ridden bfore a lot but this will be my first atv.

 

Neither! I rode a Warrior for years, and was never so happy as the day I got rid of it and got a 400EX! I have never ridden the 350 Raptor, but it has gotten mediocre reviews. There are way better choices out there.

 

Gee, what a surprise, reconranger ******* the warrior.

They both are good bikes, we had a warrior that we bought new in 92 and now have an 05 Raptor 350. The Raptor is lighter weight, has the same motor and tranny as the warrior. The Raptor has the obvious cosmetic differences as well as a shorter tires and a few lighter weight parts (bumper.etc) to lower the weight. We really like the Raptor 350. If you can get a good deal on the used warrior go for it, otherwise I would go for the new Raptor.

 

I would stay away from the warrior. It's old technology and you'd be better off buying a 400ex or a newer 400 if possible. You can easily grow tired of the ancient 350.

 

I think it would be worth the extra money to buy up to a 400. You wouldn't regret it.

 

I have a Raptor 350 and I love it, it's a great quad.
