Default Build Blaster or buy new???

Im having a hard time deciding if i should go all out on my blaster with A-arms and long travel suspension a better port job, bigger carb , better pipe (got a DG) or just upgrade to a better bike within my budget about $3500 ive seen 400ex,03-04polaris preds,older model raptors and others go for around that price on ebay , but on the other hand i could have 1 nasty blaster for half of that price.... any suggestions??

forget the blaster man... they are too much maintenance and they are 2 stroke. Instea dof getting the 400ex.. get teh z400/KFx.. they are faster and better all around bikes than the 400. Just my opinion.. id sell it and spend ur money on a Z or KFX. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

It depends on how big you are. If you are small enough for a blaster i would keep it. For porting i would recomend hollywood dirt. With 3500 you could have one bad blaster

As of right now I wouldn't trade my blaster for any other quad out there. Im strickly a 2 stroke guy. That leaves me with three options. Banshee, my blaster, or 250R. The way I see it, i've got equal power of a stock banshee in a 250 pound bike, which makes for a sweet ride. I've got a 250R siting in the garage right now but I'll ride the blaster because it's a more comforable ride then the R with about equal power.

All it takes is some motor work and suspension upgrade, you can worry about making it look pretty once thats done. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
