The Warrior vs 300 thing gets beaten to death in here!! Search some old posts. My standard answer is that I RODE A WARRIOR FOR YEARS, AND I HATE IT!!! I also OWNED A 300 FOR YEARS, AND LOVED IT (although the power is kind of mild). At 5' 10" you are pushing the size of the 300 (didn't say your weight??), and being 13 you will probably grow some more. The 300 would be OK, but only as a short term bike, and finding a used one shouldn't be a problem.

For wallowing in the water, what about one of the shaft drive 250's??

I'm over 5 10 and i can ride a 300ex just fine. I would buy a 300ex but if you are going to ride in the creeks alot then you may want to get something thats more desinged for that.

why are you riding on the road? I thought we talked abou this already??? you're gonna give us all a bad name if something happens, not to mention you could get hurt. Just go back through these forums and read the sad story of the guy trying to out run the cops and collided with a jeep.
I cant say i NEVER ride on the road, but I dont claim it as where I ride. If i have to ride on one then I do, but I dont make it a habit.

dude, sorry. calm down. no sense in getting flamed up. i didnt know about the road situation in your area. In our area, and in most areas, you cant ride on the roads. But you know, if something does happen, that is the one of the first things the ATV HATERS will say other than the, "bike's fault," - the road.
