Hummm well here is some food for thought... I just bought a yzf350 (1987) banshee extra set of rims all around extra set of paddles w/ helmet w/ ridding boots w/ gas cans with paddles and razorbacks + nobbies, bike came with LRD pipes, twist throttle, and it is in top condition minor problems include front bearings and bushings need replacement and throttle sticks a little when its cold... all for just wait for it you'll **** yourself when you hear...


$2200 ... had to drive 6 hours to pick it up but worth every second of the drive. Bike runs sweet ... and its a twin 350 2 stroke (it'll rip your arms out of your sockets if you don't pay attention.)

Shop about don't settle for crap take your time ... took me 4 weeks to land this one. Try this site (awesome for finding bikes) Atv Trader Online

 

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THE MONSOON! you are too big for it. Look around for a used ATV in good shape. Call some ATV dealers and see what they have that someone traded in.

 

I am currently looking at a 1998 6 speedmanuel Yamaha Blaster for 1,400 it's a 200cc. But there is another guy selling a yamaha dont know the name of it but it has a 200cc also but its a automatic, so the next question is, which is better automatic or manuel? Is it hard to shift gears? Or is a manuel actually faster on acceleration? Speed dont really matter, quality does. I don't want the clutch going out. Anyways thanks for the help.

 

cinic- Where are you going to be riding? Desert, woods, mud, sand, snow, etc...? The semi-auto or fully auto might be better for a beginner but don't think that you can't master a clutch with practice.

 

I will be riding in woods mostly and flat hard dirt ground. I heard the manuels are actually faster, i dont know.

 

It's kinda funny that first you wanted a 90cc and then wrote about a manual being faster. Do you want to go fast? The blaster might be a little too small for your size and a little too fast for your skill level. The blaster is a 2 stroke. Maybe you could find a 200 or 250 4 stroke? You should do some homework and get familiar with the different models. Go to Honda.com, Suzuki.com, Yamaha.com, Kawasaki.com, etc... and see what catches your eye.

 

"leagally speaking" the 90 cc would be great for you untill you turned 16...BUT it way to under powerd for you. I am 17 6'2 and about 230 I started out riding a honda 3 wheeler and then moved to a dirtbike and then to a trailblazer 250. out of all of them I love the trailblazer the most. It is a underpowerd for me but I am also an agressive rider. If you look around I am sure that you would be able to find a used atv for under 2000$. also try out different models, shop around and I am sure you will find a good deal...later

friesen

 

Im a 15 year old boy, about you`re size.
I ride a E-ton yukon 150cc, and i feel like thats to small. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!

 

yeah, dont get the 90cc, my lil bro has one and hes 9. I am lighter and smaller then you, and i find the 90cc are to small for power and size. A blaster is 2stroke 200 manuel clutch. Do you want a Utility or Sport?!
