Default Looking to buy new Quad

Sup everyone, As of now im riding a 01, scrammy 2x4. Its been good to me over the years, my friend has a 350 raptor and i love the fact that the scrammy is higher off the ground and goes through mud and water much better than the raptor. atleast in our experiences, Im going to graduate from coolege soon and was looking to buy a new quad..i want something thats gonna be able to clear obstacles on the ground ie. ( Tree branches small stumps, Rocks) since i love to ride in the woods. i want something a little faster than the scrammy 400, maybe a little racier? if thats a word, but i also want something thats gonna be able to hang with Uts going through pretty big puddles...i have been looking at the following: Scrammy 500 4x4, Honda TRX450r, YamahaRaptor 700, i was just wandering what you all think i should get or look into getting..

ya you might wanta go with an outlaw or a predator, but the scrambler 500 would be nice too, but probably wont compare to your 400.

Whoever says you cannot slide the Outlaw 525 has never tried themselves. The handling on the 525 is outstanding and slides very predictably.

Outlaw or raptor 700 would be my two choices for a sport quad. I like the 06 outlaw with the predator 500 motor. We still have a hold over and its awsome.

dear student, if you want to keep up with your buddies on the sport utilities, buy one. i have ridden with lots of guys on sport bikes and without 4x4 it sure makes for a long day for them. keep your little bike for hitting the dunes and find a 4x4 to play with your other friends.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
