umm lets see here, i see why nobody agrees with me on the warrior's rear shock. the reason behind that is... you guys are all riding new ones. why on earth youu would buy a new bike i have no idea. around here in fly ohio you can buy used 1999-2000 300 EXs for around 2000$ now why would you go and buy one off the showroom floor for over 4000$ to me i would buy the older on and totally modify it. now about the majave i havent looked up alot of crap about them but i preferably dont like them. if you want to see what other people that actually own the mojave and other bikes check out www.epinions.com it will give you reviews about them from people who own them. oh by the way the hondas have near perfect ratings.

Honda boy is not an open minded person. He is Brand loyal to the almighty HONDA.. Well the facts still are 300ex for jumps and mx style and warrior for power and trails.. As for new vs used that is preferance also. If you like other peoples problems and dont mind fixing them buy used. If you take care of your stuff buy new. Hondaboys facts are fairly accurate but anyone who is that brand loyal will never give a true opnion.. warrior will beat a 300ex on a drag, trails and hills all day long. 300ex will out jump and manuver warrior all day long.. You pick what you like better they are both great machines......

 

screw those quads. get a blaster. it's faster than the mojave 300ex and with a pipe will smoke warriors with the right driver.

 

chickstr i actually am an open minded person i told you about the warrior thats fact i dont like it after research. but the mojave is not a bad bike after research. i told you dont know alot about it so i did some research. it is the only bike in its class to have liquid cooling. so i dono. it also has a dual over head cam where the honda only has a single over head cam. so i donno. i will do more research then tell you guys about it later. but from what i have read its not that bad of a bike. but if you really want quality get honda.

 

My question is if you already have a lakota why would you want to replace it with a machine that is not really much of an improvement . The 300ex ,mohave,blaster,warrior are all similar when comparing performance and suspension travel . The lakota if I remember correctly uses the mohave chassis with racks and an auto clutch. I think you should step into the next higher catagory of performance of the 400cc plus machines because they are made for experienced riders who are looking for a serious increase in performance to match thier skill level.
By the way my little sister started riding on a 250x and went to a 250r in less than a year and now she is racing mx with it. I wont tell you what she thinks of you guys arguing over who has the faster beginner quad.

 

some of us just like arguing over which atv is faster.I would'nt consider these beginner quads either some people like these over high performance atv's say for like trail riding like we do around here these so called beginner quads can hang and sometimes outperform the big boys.But if i was racing i would won't a high peformance quad,either that or pay allota $$$ to make the ours fast.

 

hey dirtboy, i've ridden all 3 STOCK be4 i got my 300ex (u can c mods in my sig) and that's y i chose that quad, i believe the 300 is the best STOCK, ALL-AROUND quad out of the 3 and just to add something else, it responded great to my pipe and filter


just my 2 cents, take it or leave it

 

i got a 92 warrior and it is pretty much stock and i have no problem with the shocks i think it is a nice quad its never had any problems and that things gets beat. some real tuff rideing.

 

atvman do you even know that your rear shock is still good? ask anyone who is into atvs ask anyone who knows what they are talking about. ask a non-warrior fan about them if possible ask a racer and they will tell you that the warrior is faster than the EX heavier than the EX and less reliable than the EX oh ya and they look like crap on a stick. face it warrior owners your bike sux!!! and you down the EX because with nothing more than a new airfilter they can smoke you. so come back into reality and ride a honda.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

 

go with a honda and if u dont know how 2 work a clutch very good then pic a 250 its shaft driven and can ride right with a 300....if u can work a clutch go with a 300 for take off and hill climbing.
