My friend wants a four wheeler, he was going to get a Warrior to keep up with us, but his Dad won't let him get one, because its a "Japense Peice of Crap" and some other stuff. He has to get a Polaris because they own a Polaris dealer ship. He can't get a scrambler, but he needs a sport four wheeler to keep up with warriors. The only other one he could get would be a Trail Blazer, or Trail Boss. The trail blazer is 2 stroke and 244 cc, the boss is 4 stroke 325. What would be better and faster to get. He would like to do some minor upgrades to it. Do you know the top speeds of them? Thanks

Well, because I own one, I'm a little prone to the Trail Boss. Neither one of them are what I'd call fast but they are both good and fun!!

Honestly, if speed is that big of an issue, I guess I'd say Blazer because your friend could mod the heck out of it and make it a lot faster that it is stock.

Tell your friend to get one of the Scramblers. They are in the price range of the Warrior, and they would keep up better then the other two you mentioned.

Also, don't tell his dad, but the engines on Polaris ATVs are made in Japan. (Assembled in the US, but made in Japan)

He can't can't a scrambler, banshee, 400ex, anything like that. "It's too fast for him" according to his uncle, even though he is bigger and stronger then me. But he can only get THOSE 2, out of those 2 what is better. I think the blazer

Well if he can only get a blazer or boss and he wants to keep up with a warrior there is no way. U would have to mod them alot to keep up becuz mu neighbor has one and i have a trailboss and i cant keep up with him at all so what im doin is gettin a 414 kit from rcr and a pipe and clutch. Then i should keep up with him lol.

If it has to be one of those two, get the Blazer. I have one and it is a pretty good bike for the money. Top end is about the same as the Boss, but the Blazer get there faster. It is also a little lighter, making it more fun on the trails.
And the Blazer will respond to mods a lot better then the Boss will.

Thanks guys. he is getting the Blazer sometime soon. He is gonna do minor mods to it, what would you suggest to get BESIDES boring it out, I doubt that will happen. I was thinking pipe, bigger front sprocket, air filter, shocks, smaller back tires, widen the a arms to lower it. Anything else that would be good or take the place of one BESIDES boring it out.
