I'm 5'11 185 and the 300ex feels too small to me. I don't think it's going to make it wear out much quicker, but it's just too small for me to be comfortable. The thing that really sold me on my warrior is how much room the rider has, because i don't like to feel cramped up when i'm riding all day long.

I love to ride 300ex's and Im 6'3 at 205 pounds![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] The dealer doesn't know what he is talking about, there is hardly anything that can wear out a 300ex. I know a 300 pound guy that rides one, granted that is a little to big for a 300, but it still holds up to him.

your weight is only a problem if your not used to riding then improper riding will wear any quad out quick as for as weight im 6'7 and weigh almost 300 lbs and i own 2 300exs and a 2001 yamaha banshee and both run with the best of them it all depends on your skill and experiance good luck ride hard be safe
