I know no one will probably agree with me. But from seeing your gallery. YOU NEED A SPORT QUAD! It looks life you love to jump and the mud you ride in it looks like a sport quad can take it easy. I reccomend a 400ex for ya. Or look into the z400. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] gluck and happy riding!

Thanks for the reply atv girl.I'm a small guy.5"7 130 lbs.I ve been riding big motorcycles since I was 19 yrsld.The key to riding a large machine is shifting your body on it & getting up near the handle bars.I can slap my p650 around doing this with the throttle.There is no subsitute for power.I can't hardly push it when its not running.But when its running its all over but the crying.Those who are crying are riding something other than a Prairie.

I am NO LONGER QUADLESS!!! I got a 300EX, and I LOVE IT!!!!!! Thanks for all your time and advice! I cannot believe I went with a sport quad, but after riding it, I'm not sure why I didn't switch sooner! I love the suspension and how easily it steers and handles in the woods. I also like that it's ~200 pounds lighter than my Rancher was! It is great, but I have only been able to go riding one day. I can't wait to get some more seat time on it! Again, thanks for all your posts!

ATV Connection Tested: 300EX
With her weight that will be one fast machine.

Hey ATV Gurl,
I had a Rancher S and know what you mean about the ride! The thing was terrible and when I was out with my buds riding their IRS machines I had to really pour it on to keep up and it was killing me. I sold the Rancher and got a Rincon after looking at the Grizzly and the Outlander. After riding the others I went with the Honda. It's an awesone trail machine and it handles like nothing else I've ever ridden. If you haven't ridden one, you should before you decide to buy.

damguy,
She purchased a new 300EX ATVGurl's photo page
and at 5'2", 108 lbs that 300EX will be really nice for her[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
ATVGurl might have to adjust the shocks preload because I think the suspension is set for a higher weight load by 40 to 50 pounds or more for the average rider.
