Default Sport Quad?

Ok I have narrowed it down to the 2006 suzuki z400 (Very considered about side cover leaking though) or the Quadacer 450. I know this may sound weird, But I do only trail riding so I suppose the Z400 would be better, But I just sold my Banshee and do not want to be disappointed on power. What do you all think? I also considered the YZF450 also. Let me know what you all think.

Interesting choices coming from a Banshee. Of the ones you are considering, I'd go with the Z if you really are only trail riding. You might be disappointed with the power in stock form, but with a few mods, you should be fine.

Wow, Banshee to a Z... the narrower a quad is, the better it is for the trails. As Webopper said, the Z will do you fine on the trails and will respond well with a few mods. Banshee's don't compare, unless it's bone stock. You won't be disapointed with your choice.

The Z is a good bike but I would see what comes of this corrosion problem before I bought one.

If you don't want to be disapointed in power I would also consider the Predator or one of the Raptors.

One thing for sure is there are more choices now than ever before. From the 400s on up you really can't go wrong. The 700 Rappy is awesome for aggressive trail riding or just cruising the trails. If I went with another it would probably be an 06 Honda 450R.
How about a 06 Z400 with the LTR450 motor. Thats what I would've like to seen from Suzuki........ [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]

i wouldent put the 06 450R in because honda totaly re-did the suspention and its ALOT rougher than last years, not to mention the travle of the front shocks is pitafull. you'd have better luck with an 05 450R

I may look at the 2006 Yamaha Raptor 700. I was not sure how the EFI is working out. Any problems?

The Rappy is awsome....the FI works like a charm...starts right up and I think the most powerful trail rider thats all i basically do.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
