Hi! I'm about 5'1 140lb and I've been riding a 250 suzuki 2x4 sport quad. I want something with way better suspension that won't be to big. I was thinking either a 400ex or 350 raptor.
I mostly plan on ridding tracks and trails every now and then. Any sugestions?

 

I cant realy advise you to go with eathier of them for the fact that they dont have very go suspention. Go for it if you plan on replacing the shocks.

 

I don't mean to hijack the thread, but: Do people really replace their shocks on a new quad? I was just looking at shocks and they were like $800 to $1000. And a full front suspension was like $2500. Holy shizit! It seems cost prohibitive. Ya buy a quad for 5k, and then dump thousands into it to ride trails.


I really don't know shizit about these things. I'm planning on getting 4 of the Quadsport's from Suzuki. From reading, and not personal experience, they seem to have a higher quality suspension(z400). Shizit, now I'm worried if I break a shock, it's gonna cost me 1/5 the cost of replacing the whole quad. It makes no sense to me to replace/upgrade the suspension on a new quad, just get one that has superior parts to begin with. Maybe one of the race-ready 450's?
