All my friends have a blaster. Well most of them do. I had a 300ex last year and i was blowing all them away. Even the ones with pipes. I just think the 300ex is great. But the blaster is cheaper. There is lots of good things about both. I just think the 300ex is nicer. My 2 cents

im not getting deep into this.
300ex is best sport atv- i hope people recognize sport vs highperformance. Blasters are cheap.

Blasters say they have better top speed, and they might. but who has better mid range, low end, handling, suspension, braking, size, and easy maintenance.

I love my 300ex. If you decide u can't get the 300ex get a mojave;they're not bad
liquid cooled.

I have a 300EX and my best friend has a blaster and weighs about 40lbs. less than me and I still whoop up on him in every type of terrain including drag racing. BTW if your'e name means anything the 300EX is awesome for wheelies because it has an even strong powerband and dosen't have a hit in the powerband like the blaster.

all im going to say is like in every forum its all RIDER. If u put the equal riders on them. it will be really really close but the blaster will be ahead from the start.

Come On the 300ex is not the best sport quad..........TAKE A LOOK AT THE YAMAHA WARRIOR 350, its great for riding anyware......mines got 2 years and hasnt let me down once.....The 300ex is very good my brother just got one, the Warrior is a lot better if youre tall (i am 6'1)because of its space!!!!!!!!I wouldnt trade my Warrior for nothing!!!!!!!!!I MEAN IT!!!!

'98 WARRIOR
'00 300EX

well ill compromise
300ex is best sport quad if ur under 6 ft
warrior is best if ur over 6?

alright
but i picked a 300ex over a warrior, but both are great. i got the 300ex on a deal (like 4600 out the door) and thats why i got it. But I think its a better jumper and wheelier than the warrior, and an all round better quad. warrior is faster in a drag but i dont drag race so for me the 300ex is better.

I think its all about the money and your riding skill. 300ex is a great bike, but you are deifnitely paying for it, the Blaster is a great bike, and i would dare to say that the Blaster is a better jumper in my opinion/experience. But i mean come on guys, look how much a Blaster costs straight out the door, almost 2000 cheaper than a 300ex and it will at least hang with it!!! Also, the Blasters clutch action has been praised by many mags and the Blaster is also a great wheelie bike....

I'll reverse what I said before. More and more I see unhappy Warrior owners. But most people agree that the 300ex is much better than the Warrior, and I'm with them. First of all its a Honda with great low end power. Its much better on the track compared to most quads (well not the 250r or 400ex). Also, as a trail rider its tough and can take alot. Some people were disappointed with the warrior, I can't name names but its just a point.
