Default Buying an ATV have some requirments

I have a 2002 Honda 350 Rancher because my dad bought it and we needed it for hunting. Now that I have a job and have started saving up money I would like to buy my own sport quad. I ride trails that are mostly wide open but have a few technacil areas. So I need to not have to ride the clutch if I want to go slow.

I would like for it to have the following:

Manaul Cluth (I ride dirtbikes and have always liked them better)

Reverse

Lots of aftermarket parts

I was thinking about a used 300EX. Are they good? How much would I expect to spend on a used one?

A 300ex or 250x would be good choices. There small light and have reverse and are easy to ride. You will find either one pretty cheap for sale around you.

Thanks, I'm probally going to start looking for a 300ex. I am not going to race. Some of the trails I ride can get really muddy. I've gotten stuck on the rancher once. Could I put Warns new 1.5ci winch on it? Or will it weight the front end to much?

I'm planning on the 1.5ci for my warrior. It only weighs 11 lbs.
