only way a warrior is gonna outrun a 660 is with a street bike engine in it.

Pure ignorance. The Warrior has proven to be one of the most reliable quads of all time, and that's with an air-cooled engine!

Oh and you're riding a z250. 'Nuff said.

I'd have to say the 400ex will outrun the warrior. Having owned a warrior with several mods including, stroker crank/rod/piston, White Bros Cam, 38mikuni flatslide carb, and almost every make of exhaust under the sun at the time I owned it, I'd like to think of my experience and knowledge as first hand. I now own a 2005 honda 400ex and am sure that it would spank the Warrior. I test drove the Raptor 350 and the 400ex and there was no comparison between the two, the 400 spanked it. I can't even remember my Warrior having as much torque, power and handling as the stock 400ex. When I had it I could keep up with the current (at the time) Suzuki 500 but I'd have to go with the 400. Get a K&N, take your airbox lid off and at least get a decent slip on muffler and your good as golden.

The warrior has proven reliable where? in china? maybe compared to a katzuma or some cheapee bike. get real man, a warrior is a piece. I would much rather push my z250 than ride a warrior (you'll be pushing sooner or later anyway). If a warrior is so good then why is yours for sale and your wanting a LTR450 SUZUKI? Why not get the YFZ450 since you think yamaha is so good? Trust me, i have rode both and the only reason to compare a yfz to a LTR is because they are both 450cc bikes...other than that, they don't compare. The suzuki is a way better bike.

Oh so you're saying a Warrior is a piece? And you're riding a z250, A CHILDS QUAD. And why is mine for sale? Hmmm that could be because I've had it for three years and i've outgrown it.

And when did I say Yamaha is so good? I'm a Honda man at heart, and If I hadn't gotten a deal on this bike, I never would have purchased it. But you know what? It's been one of the most reliable motorcycles I have EVER owned. Never once have I had a problem with it and I have ridden the **** out of this quad. Do some research before you talk ****.

Almost anyone who has owned a Warrior at one point in time will say that this quad has PROVEN to be reliable, ever wonder why it wasn't changed in the 17 years it was produced?

With a slip-on exhaust and a air filter? No...
