Does anybody know anything about the 2004 Yamaha Blaster(Pros/Cons)?? I'm thinking about buying one.

Pros-Cheap, Good handling
Cons- Slow, Semi-unreliable.(Oil Injector)

 

Great bargain buy one[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

Convert to premix... an easy deal.. all it takes is a small BB.

Handles well, and there are tons of aftermarket parts to make it go faster when you are up to it.

Now that they have upgraded the brakes to Discs all around, it is probably the best value for the buck...

 

If your going to buy one, buy a newer one, the brake upgrade is well worth it. The older brakes suck, plain and simple. To bad you didn't live close to Washington State. A guy we ride with has a real nice '04 for sale, about $2800. His forum name is NWQUADFREAK. Good luck finding what you want........

 

check out albaaction.com and get a taste for what is available for the blaster. They sell a well equipped model for about the same price as a factory one.

 

thanx for all the info guys! I'll buy one as soon as i find a good deal.

 

i have had a blaster about a year ago and i hated it. i bought it used and a month later i was riding and my it shaddered the piston. they not reliable.after i rebuilt my motor i rode about 4 ot 5 times and my trammission blew out of the bottom of the motor i would look at a warrior,300ex,or400ex they are all faster than a blaster and a lot more reliable
