Default Best Bang for my Buck(s)

Alright....

I currently have a 250x Montor in a 300 ex body, has a supertrap pipe on it, differnet tires, nothing to fancy.

But i really need a quad that has some power behind it, and acually be able to pull some wheelies/spin the tires without really trying hard. I like having fun, tearing up dirt/grass/anything.

Im looking for something used, i really like the Yfz450, but its totally out of my price range.

I want to be able to go out on the dunes/trails and have a good time.

Im looking at something in the 2k-2.5k range and thats pushing it. (Just bought a new computer)

If i really find something that i like i might be able to go higher.

Im 6' 4" and weigh around 170 pounds (its true lol)

What i really want is something that acts like a dirt bike, where you can't punch it or you will flip over, and keep in mind i haven't driven anything newer then my 250x 300 ex hyrid. So i dont know how how much power the average quad has these days.

z400/kfx400 or a 400ex will probally be your best bets in that price range. Both great quads.

Warrior/raptor 350 would be something else to consider also good quads just a little less powerful than the 400's

Could probally find a older Raptor 660 in that range but may be more than you want.

best bang for the buck would be a 250 2stroker imo. lt250 can be had pretty dang cheap!they rip too.if your all about 4strokes ..a 400ex is a very solid choice in the under $2000 range.
