what should i know about a BLASTER?
#1
Hi
I am 13 years old and am about 70 lbs. My dad took me to purchase a blaster for myself...but they wouldnt let us buy it because they knew it was for me and you have to be 16 to ride it. Basicly, the rider has to be 16 if they want to sell it to you. Then they started saying how they were really fast and they roll very easy and that i wouldnt be able to handle it. Is this true? What can you tell me about them? Thank you

littleatvr,
The Dealer, in order to preserve his franchise, must not knowingly sell you a 200cc quad. He had to make some excuses for not taking your money. The fact is that the Blaster is no more prone to rollover than any other sport quad. It is the nature of the beast that it tends to want to go in a straight line, as a matter of physics. If one tries to defeat that tendency, the machine can bicycle, meaning the the inside two wheels rise off the ground,or in worst cases, roll over or highside. It can occur with any quad at almost any speed unless the rider has learned to shift his weight and his body position to the inside of the turn, counteracting the straight line tendency.
If you have your heart set on a Blaster, I feel that it's an excellent entry level sport quad. though not without some drawbacks, the major one being the somewhat antiquated braking by means of mechanical rather than hydraulic.
Suspension is barely adequate given it's speed and intended use. At $2929 it's also the lowest priced sport quad so certain amenities have to be omitted .
You asked for opinions and those are mine.
