my girl loves her 400EX. It's light, a good size & plenty of power (regardless of what dirtwheels says) Plus with a second quad around it's best to have a Honda since you never have to spend YOUR time working on HER quad. The downside, no reverse. But so far so good.

Im getting a 250EX for my wife, she's 5 foot 120 pounds so itll fit here just right, and they have less problems than the 300ex and 400ex, the 250 is one indestructible machine.

My 250ex sucked @$$ i was allways putting money into it. I had to ripe the motor apart 2 times and i also bent something in the front. Glad i sold that. O and it was allways burning oil too. But i beat the thing alot. It is better for a really slow paced rider or someone who is just startin

Ken,

If she wants to ever go to the top of Sand Mountain, don't get a Warrior. They struggle to get up there.

Bring her out on Labor Day, and she can try my wife's 400EX.

I would not get a warrior or a 300 or 400ex.

There is only one bike that can match the performance of the ds650 and it hasnt been invented yet.

The raptor is fast and does have power but truthfully mine and friends of mine that got one all realized that the only reason it isnt as heavy as the DS650 is because its built with bamboo and it is a real fragial bike.

My own experiance with the DS is that when you buy it and ride it, it feels normal sized coming from a util. Coming from a small sport bike like a blaster or warrior it would feel huge. But i dont think she would like a smaller bike for the fact that the DS width and suspention makes for the most comfortable and stable ride in the industry. Thats why all these raptor guys are widing, and putting taller suspention because they want the same handling.

I dont know which bike to recommend, Your gonna need to take a lot of test rides.
