i like the warrior and have thought about buying one for my wife but there is no way it will out do the raptor. no replacment for displacement. i know everyone has heard that saying.

 

You're right Psycho
I think everyone has hear that saying....because it's true.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I gave the Warrior to my wife and she loves it and is very suited to it. I still ride it on occasion, usually when someone wants to hop on my Raptor, but the Raptor is much, much better suited to my riding style and my size.

 

well it rider skill too...

 

BTW....I would love to jump on a DS. I've heard lots of good things about them.

I typically buy Yamaha not so much for brand loyalty but because my dad's friend own a Yamaha delership so we get excellent deals. Sometimes it just comes down to $$$.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Warriors are great on the trails, but sand and hills kill the bikes power. I am thinking about a DS. I like the Raptor, but the dealer won't let me test drive[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img] I could understand if it was brand new, but he has a used one outside.

When I am ready, that dealer will not be getting my money!!

 

If you are a trailrider, get the EX or raptor. Personally I would get one of the new 450's, but the $$$ you have to give away is unbelievable!!

Im loyal to yamaha, so go with the rappy [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

Go with the rappyyou'll like the power

 

i rode 2 warriors a 435 and a 390 both were great in sand but the 390 did seem to lose power hlel the little honda 300ex's i rode seemed to climb better( due mainly to tire design) but they did seem to lsoe some power in sand( i got stuck within 30 secs of riding in sand my first tiem out)

 

the z400 is the best al aroud quad in my opinion

 

dude the z400 can';t do [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] on trails belive me
