Default Finally Getting a new one

I am upgrading from a 2001 beartracker, but i do have experience with sports four-wheelers. I am leaning between a Yamaha Warrior or Honda 400ex, i want to know which one is more durable and has more get-up and go. a kawasaki is also something i have my eyes on any suggestions?

if your looking at a pre-'05 400ex, go with the warrior if you ride on trails. reverse helps.

They are the same machine but for some reason around here the Kawies are usually cheaper. No idea why that is.

Dont get a z400.my friend sold his and got a honda.The frame on the suzuki sucks. Thay crack in a few spots. They now have a gusset kit on the newer ones. so be careful of getting a used one.

That's only in the '03 models. My friend has a KFX that cracked on both sides on the upper shock mounts. All he did has weld it up and now its good to ride.
