300ex. You already know how to ride an auto-clutch, move up to a manual clutch.

I suggest 300EX/Blaster/230Quad Sport/250X for your age. The later 3 being ideal and cheap. For the future, the blaster will yeaild more upgrades and fun factor - the 250/300ex will be most reliable.

i went from my 90 to my 300ex when i was 10 or 11, then got the raptor a few months after that, and a few weeks after that my ex got stolen[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img].....have you taken the rappy 350 into consideration, i hear they are pretty nice

p.s.i was originally gonna get a blaster, but we went to the shop and i fell in love with the ex, and it was the best decision i ever made.

I liked blasters.. they are nice machines and if your not that tall they are great and respond good to mods...But there is downsides that you do have to take into consideration

Pro's
a lot of aftermarket support
They have been around for year's meaning you could find older ones for cheaper
Will be a great throw around fun machine...
Can make a monster with 240 or bigger motor kits such as the hollywood dirt set up { highly reccomended} or vito's

Con's
2 stroke meaning rebuilds some time down the road
Smaller machine
small CC
Older versions had bad brakes and did not look very nice IMO

They are not big bikes at all.. and with a only 200 cc machine its better for smaller people.. So its just rider preferences

I think the 300ex or the Raptor 350. that new Raptor is pretty sharp, pretty quick to. I like the upgrade they did from the Warrior. Great brakes. For performance I would choose between the Raptor 350, 300ex and the Blaster.
Good LUck
