Default Getting New Bike advice would help

I was thinking about buying a new quad and wasn't sure what to get. I am currently riding a Mojave 250, its too small for me and i beat the crap out of it. I like the look of the DVX 400 which i know has the same engine as the Z400 and the KFX400, but i also like the 07 Predator and the Raptor 700, but i think the raptor might have too much for me. I'm 15 years old and I am 5ft 9in and weigh 200lbs and i've also been riding since i was 8 or 9 years old so i'm pretty experienced. I would be getting this bike for mostly trail riding. Money is not an issue, and I am open to any suggestions.

I think the Z and its clones are the best all-around machines there are. They do everything very well. Handle great, and the motor has tons of hop up potential with some simple mods, when you are ready for more power.

I have not ridden the Raptor 700, but it seems like it has a lot of potential as well.

Considering your size and experience I would say get either a Z400, Raptor 700, or a 450. You'd be happy with any of these for a very long time.
