Please help me decide. I was first turned on by the warrior then 300ex. Now I am on the mojave kick. I had a lt250r with a different motor in it, it fit good. I have always liked Kawasaki, therefore the Tecate. I am fairly new to atving, having just one. Have had dirtbikes in the past. Looking for mainly a good trail quad. One that I will not get sick of. I am 5'9'' and 195lbs. I like 2-strokes but 4 are ok. I like how the mojave is liquid, but is it to small, engine wise. Read the 300ex handles real good but is it quick enough. Read the tecate is real fast and different which I like but how hard is it getting parts and how does it handle. The warrior is what the local dealer said is a good all around quad. I hear that I would get sick of it though. I know 87-92 would be the years to get in the suzuki. How reliable are these and how about parts. I do like to work on my own toys. So a little tinckering is OK. Jumping is a little concern but quick trail riding is what i want. Any help would be appreciated since I am currently looking at two quads this weekend.

The lt250r had a Yamaha RD400 twin 2-stroke set up for dunes. It went real good.

 

tecate are good i know some one that had one it was real fast but if that lt250r had a 400 twin 2 stroke engine in it i would buy that

 

go with the 300 ex.....Its a HONDA[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

 

hands down a 300ex

 

I have a LT250R for sale if you want

 

I have a 88 tecate and a 85 quad racer honda 250x (same as 300 ex no starter and 30cc less) And had a mojave. I think for tracks jumping and roads my tecate is the best. If u put spacers on a tecate it will handle very well. I do not like the mojave's alot. The Lt is the same story as the tecate. The 250x and 300ex s are great quads and are quick. My uncle has a warrior and likes it. They are heavy though and i heard that the older ones had trouble with thier starters. Honda's are super reliable.

 

If you'll get tired of a Warrior, you'll get tired of a 300EX too .. ever think of a Raptor, 400EX, Z/KFX/DVX 400??

Less likely to get bored on those and are far better machines for excitement than the 300EX .. not sure on the 2 strokers you mentioned...

 

For trailriding, Warrior. The only area the 300ex really smokes it in is jumping, but the Warrior is at home in the woods, great for climbing hills. I'm about an inch taller than you and sat on the 300ex when I was trying to decide and it felt too small, so for someone your height and weight the Warrior would be better suited there as well. JMO.
