Default 01 Yamaha Warrior 350 vs new Bombardier DS250

This is for my wife. She is currently riding a 86 LT250R but she has a hard time kickstarting so we want to get her an electric start.

The warrior is about 2200 and the Bombardier is about 2700. This is a hard choice!!!! please help.. what are the pros and cons of both

I'd say Warrior the DS 250 would be a step down from her LT250R.

Ya,

She loves the LT250R its just that I ahve to start it, and if I dont see her behind me, I have to go back to start it if she stalls it etc.. I wish there was someting like a Goki for the lt250r electric starter kit, but I called them today and they have one for the lt230 but not the 250.

She uses it for a trail riding and few spins around the ATV track at the local motocross park. We are just weekend warriors

I would say the Warrior too. The DS250 is a heavy automatic machine. If she's been riding an LT250R she is not going to like it.

Another machine to consider would be a 250EX. That isn't going to have the power of the LT250R but then again neither is the Warrior.

I would go with the Warrior as well. Easy to use trail machine, that still gets up and goes.
