400EX!

 

300ex man i got one i know

 

Everyone has their perspective of what they want from a sport quad for trail use. You can ask this question here and everyone will tell you their honda is the ultimate in the woods.....same with the Yamaha forum and so on. What it boils down too is trying too ride each in the environment you ride in and then make your decision based upon your needs and wants (but I agree thats a tall order too ride all potential candidates).

 

z400!!!!

 

i think the raptor is the best cause you have enough power to do what you want and you dont have too keep switching gears

 

u dont have to switch gears on a raptor? lol anyways im pretty happy with tha way my 400ex does on the trails, reverse would be nice on extremely tight trails and swamps but its not tht bad without it. as for larger, faster trails a 400ex is great, all around

 

Probably anything with a manual transmission if you like to attack every rut and bump. Probably a 250ex or Z250 if you just like to putt along and take in the scenery.

 

Thats about the dumbest thing I've read in a while. What about hanging up the wider rear axle because the narrow front end will fit anywhere. You are essentially only as narrow as your axle, which is the same width as a quads anyway. How about going down a hill with a nice deep rut in the middle, thats always fun on a 3 wheeler.

Besides his question was best sport "QUAD" not sport "TRIKE"

 

that's one of the funniest posts I've ever read

 

Jeff my fine intellectual friend, the front tires on a three wheeler are tucked into the turn radius, on a four wheeler they hang on the outside and get caught on trees. Ride one before you talk so much crap. I own both.

I know he was asking about quads, I was giving an ironic commentary, i.e., great handling four wheeler sometimes take a backseat to "old outdated" three wheelers.
