If i had to pick between all of those quads it would come right down to the z and the 660.Just because i own them both.No j/p.But the z is very very stable when it comes to wheelies, jumps, rough trails, hills, and many other things.i would reccommend the z400 over the raptor for somone who hasnt ridden a larger bored sport quad for the majoraty of their riding days.But someone who is experienced, and has owned or ridden a quad like 400ex and banshee or z400 a lot when they ride and has gotten used to the way they handle, then i would recomend the 660.It is a light powerful and good trail bike.It has no rev limiters but the z does.....very fun in reverse, it does like 35...lol....Off the jumps you would really have to get used to the 660 becuz of its longer gears.you would not be able to hit jumps in certain gears or it will over shoot.I did becuz i was used to the z400's gears when i first got it.I hit a 2nd gear jump for the z400, in 2nd gear on the 660.I overshot by about 10 feet and landed on the 2 left wheels and it sucked my leg under the tire...(itp blackwaters...ouch)....for longer jumps it is good, it will stay stable for you as long as you know where to shift your weight.But i hope i helped you guys who are tryin to decide which one of these quads to buy.

im prolly picking up a shee soon

i sold my Z400 cuz of reliability issues and i got tired of hauling it off to dealer for stupid repairs

right now im riding a piped 400ex and its as good or better then my Z was

the shee will have basic mods on it and these steering things i found in the newest atv sport mag....supposed to cut the turning radius by 30% and make the quad more stable....i will prolly also put new shocks on it

wouldn't really say a convert.....i need another 2 stroke quad though


first quad was a shee when i was like 13....always loved them and always regretted getting rid of my old one

the 4 stroke bikes are nice for where i ride but ive been able to ride in more open areas where i can really open the bike up and the 400's 4 strokes just lack the pop and speed i crave

the shee will definately be built to be a beast

The Suzuki Z400 is the best all-around machine there is!

The Blaster is a kids bike. The Banshee isn't a good jumper or trail bike. The 400EX doesn't have the power of the Z (but does handle great), and the Raptor is to narrow and tippy.
He said it all
