Default Best sport quad for me

I'm 15 years old and currently own a Warrior. For a few months I have been wanting a quad with more power and better suspension. I jump mine a lot but I am really messing it up because the suspension and frame aren't built for the hard jumping I am putting it through. I was wondering what quad would be the best for me and has the best suspension and a good price. Thanks.

P.S Or should I just hop up my quad and get better suspension, pipe, air filter, and jetting.

If you truly feel you have outgrown the performance of your warrior, a newer vehicle might be a good idea. You can find used 400ex's for cheap, maybe just a little more than you would get for your warrior. I dont know what year your warrior is, but if is only a year or 2 old, you may just want to upgrade it. A pipe, new tires, and some other mild upgrades could really change the way your quad feels.

If you have the money, a 400ex or even a z/kfx 400 would be a great upgrade. But if your quad is new, you will be better off to mod it and not lose a lot of money by selling.

Is your Warrior a 2003? When you bought your Warrior, why did you choose it over other brands at that time? If you are going to get another quad, I'd sell the Warrior and NOT trade it in. You will probably loose alot of money if it is a 2003. I don't think that I would hop up the Warrior because you'll want something else sooner or later. Why dump alot of money in it to get rid of it down the road? I would hold on to the Warrior and ride that for a year or so. Get some use out of the Warrior. Then when Yamaha and maybe Honda come out with their new quads you won't be kicking yourself. Even if the Warrior is older I would wait and see if anything new is coming. Quads like the Z400 should go a little cheaper when there is more sport quads to choose.
