I own a 1993 and have had the machine since 1994. It only had a few hours on it when I purchased it. I have only purchased the following items in seven years of hard riding:

New piston (WISECO) .020 over - $125 including the bore
Tires - $225
Air filter - $15
Oil
Headlight bulb $3.75
Front and rear brakes - $35.

I maintain my machine VERY well and it has never broken down. I ride very hard and in deep water and mud. I wash and grease my machine every time I "swim" it in the river. If the machine is maintained it will last for 5 to 10 years easily with minimal expese!


I would highly recomend the machine because it just keeps going and going. I am purchasing an Xplorer 400 for father's day to gain more speed and 4X4.

The 2 stroke power is really snappy and inexpensive to add modifications to greatly increase power (RCR Racing.com). Good luck with your decision.very hardvery hardvery hard[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Handling is good and it is slightly faster than a Honda TRX300 and much faster than a Kaw Bayou 220. Top speed is @ 45mph. I would definately buy it again.

 

The Trailboss 250 is very much like the Trailblazer. It might go a tad slower than the blazer but still very fun. I think it has a smaller frame and a rack on the back those are the significant differences.
