"Long name boy" is easier to type. From this day on "Aguywhocanneverbuyagoodquad" will be referred to as "Long name boy".

Hi,
I think Honda makes a really good ATV. The Honda has a great suspension. I've had the ATC 185S THREE WHEELER , two racing 3 wheelers250R, A CR 125 BIKE, and I just bought a new 03 Banshee by Yamaha. I've already had problems from my Banshee. I never had any from my Honda. If you like speed you may want to get the 300 EX. As your abilities GROW you'll want a little power to play with.

Ride what ever you like ''long name boy'' dont let the clutch thing stop you form getting what you want
the clutch is only used to start off any way " if you kick it , it will shift " ............. BUD

whats that supposed to mean... BUD J/K i meam only useing your clutch for startting and stopping. shifting?down shifting?and using it so you dont stall. arent those just as important to do as using it to start and stop, other than you have to use it to start.

There are two quads that i believe are the best sport quads for trails and just ripping...
However it depends on the money you can spend.

The Suzuki QuadSport Z250 is a good choice... MSRP $3,899
The reasons being, it has a drive shaft which is very low meintenance, won't have to deal with a chain.
There is no clutch to deal with, it also has reverse.
Best of all it has 8.3 inches of ground clearance which is almost twice as much as its competitors... 250 ex, 300 ex, warrior...

All of these Features are really good for trail riding and dune ripping.

If you are willing to spend more money you could also get the Suzuki Quadsport 400, this has a clutch, but it is 4 stroke, with a drive shaft. Also has a lot of ground clearance for a sport quad.. You will have to spend $5,000 +++ to buy this though

the quadsport 400 does have a chain, also liquid cooling. the exact price is $5699. but for little over 3 you could get the blaster. 200cc. and manual clutch. just learned how to use onr the other day. and i wish i had one.

Have you looked into a Kawasaki Mojave? I just recently purchased a 2003 Model, and just love it. Quick, fast, and easy to maneuver. It has a clutch, and is very easy to use. After a day of clutching, it's like riding a bike, you just take it for granted.

Bottom line, don't let the clutch be your deciding factor, you can adjust to that. I have not ridden any of the other quads mentioned, so I have no opinion on them. I am sure they are fine machines as well.

Comfort for you is the deciding factor. Have fun and enjoy.
