What quad should i get after i sale my 250ex. I was thinking warrior or 300ex, but i need some opinions. I would be buying this quad used and i do just about everything, but i dont want a heavy one since i do like to jump. Any help apreciated.

Defiently a 300ex out of those choices, a warrior is heavy, and u dont want heavy like u said. My 300ex jumps better than my friends warrior, he even broke a front shock, and it wasnt even a big jump. I say 300ex.

I thot u wood say that, lol. If your planning on keeping the quad 4 a long time, and a used 1, go with a 400ex, cant go wrong. You can get a 2002, 2003 in good condition for about 3,000-3,600. Maybe even less.Me personally, i want a 450r. But thats alot of quad so idk even if i will get it.

Back in the day, I use to bust out big air on the 300. It is probably the best tight trail quad every! It is medium size, so it fits between the trees easily, and is very agile. The suspension is better than the 250, but not as good as a full size sport quad.

The 300 is on the heavy side, for its size. About the same weight as the 400EX, yet it doesn't handle like it's that heavy. If you are big enough however, get the 400EX instead.

Deffinitly the 400ex. It's a forgiving fourwheeler, if youy miss some shifts and probably one of the most reliable quads I have ever rode. It can also be uncorked (The stock intake is horrible) and you will get a good bit of extra power when you decide you want some more.

I think you will be overwhelmed with joy. I have never let a reverse gear select anything I buy and never had it on anything I ride. =]
