Default Cuttin' thru the woods.....

Most of the riding that's important to me is low speed handling in the woods, tight trails, etc. I'm looking at a Z400, 400Ex or maybe a Predator. Which one of these bikes feels more nimble and turns better at low speeds.

Personally i would go with the new z400, its IMO the best all around bike out there now.

Both the Z and EX are great trail rides. I prefer the EX for the slower, technical stuff. You can put it in 1st gear, and just idle along.

If you are a smaller rider, a hopped up 300EX is great as well. For this application, I would like to see a Honda CRF250X engine in a 300EX frame!

The 05 EX does have reverse as well. My vote is for the Z. Best all around quad there is on the market.

for the slower trail the z or the ex would be fine.. but when you want to kick it a a little the z would be a better choice...
