you can find plenty atv's for cheap....unless you have to have a new quad. My 2 stroke scrambler has its share of problems...but no not all 2 strokes do, they just are harder to maintain than a 4 stroke. I think you might have to rebuild the engine every couple years or something.

Buuut...you can go get a good used 400ex or something for about the price of a new blaster and it would probably bring you more enjoyment too, anyway, blasters are good lil bikes though.

Blaster maintenence is pretty simple. Just keep the 2-stroke engine oil topped up (unless the injector has been removed, then you will have to pre-mix oil with gas), change the transmission oil now and then, spark plug, and clean the air filter.

I guess you should keep it stock at first, then when ready, add some more power. Or just go ahead and start off with a pipe---whatever you want to do.
