Default What four wheeler would be best for me?

Hey guys I'm looking to buy a new four wheeler. I'e been riding my buddys blaster the Last few months and it's not stock has hot rods bottom end, bored .40 over weisco piston but it's still not that fast. I' a smaller guy I only weigh 130lbs lol yaya shut up anyways I was thinking like a warrior 350 but I've seen those are no faster then a modded blaster so maybe a 400 or 450? Im not going out to the sands or racing it more just out having fun any suggestions on any models? Thanks

if you want a quad that doesint require much maintance warrior 350 or 400ex both are really good. depending on your budget, but if you can afford 2k-3k, maybe cheaper if you get a good deal but try to get the 2005 or newer 400ex, but the older ones are great too!

Can't go wrong with a 400ex. Very reliable and decent power. The Suzuki Z400 would be good too. Yamaha Raptor 660 is a bit faster and costs a little more but you can find a good one for around $2500.

Honda 400 ex is a good trail quad as long as you don't anticipate deep mud or snow.

When you ask for a reliable machine, they all start out being reliable....but then it depends on how the owners have taken care of them over the years and how hard they have been ridden. So that becomes anyones guess...look for older owners as they tend to take care of there stuff a lot better....but then how many older people ride a sport quad? I it were me I would get a nice 450 or there abouts 4x4 so you could ride anywhere you wanted...mud, snow, trails etc. Sports quads are great for speed, my son's had sport quads in years back and they would always laugh at Dad on his 4x4 as they went past me....then I would catch up to them and laugh right back as they set in a mud hole and I passed them!! Yea I always went back and pulled them out....right after teasing them about being stuck all the time...

I think we get it now, you are not fond of sport quads. No need to comment on every thread about them if you aren't a fan
bTw , a 450 utility will never satisfy a sport rider , going to need a 650plus to do that
