Default Fastest 250 Automatic

Pretty simple, give me the fastest 250 Automatic, including without governor and minor mods. I'm looking to buy one a someone suggested the E-Ton 250 Vector which goes 48 mph stock. I currently have a Yamaha 350 Bruin 4X4, I want a sport because of the handling, weight, and overall being able to ride it harder. Give me the fastest you guys think and its max mph. Remember, I only want an automatic.

well u have to remember one thing. most automatics weigh 60-100 pounds more than the manuals. so its going to be slowert. why don't u research here. quads u like which are auto. and what opinions they have with them. because most will tell u quads that are quick fasty and affordable are'nt automativs. try the can ds 250 or the kmyco mongoose 250 and 300, plud the polaris phonex

Forget about the autos and get a 250EX. Way faster and more reliable than the Taiwanese junk and the Taiwanese junk with Polaris and Can-Am stickers on them.

Well I just got the wife the DS 250. That, the AC DVX250 and the Kymco Mongoose are all the same (rebadged Kymco's). And they have got some really good reviews about reliability. She had a Polaris Trail Blazer. The Blazer is faster, and it's about 6 inches wider too, so it's a little more stable. Both handled well, and I'm currently looking to find a good pipe for the DS. Probably would have gotten her another Blazer, but she just doesn't ride it wide open enough to make a 2 stroke happy. Would also have to say the Blazer is more tunable, and has more power building potential.

For what you're looking for, I'd say the Polaris would be the way to go. Also would suggest checking out Ritter Cycle if you get the Blazer. Plenty of power upgrades at a good price, and he has excellent customer service.

Learn to shift! Manuals in the 250 class, have very, very simple autoclutch transmissions. It will open up a whole range of far superior machines to choose from. 250EX is my recommendation!

I can teach a 6 year old to shift in a couple of hours. Don't limit yourself by only being willing to ride an auto..........

While it's true, learning to shift will get you more speed, remember who your buying this for. Personally, I would love to see the wife get at least a semi auto. But, if I were to get her one, and she didn't like it, I would have just purchased an incredibly large and expensive paper weight.

Explore all your options, and purchase what will make YOU happy.

DS250 is not designed by kymco, they arent the same as the mongoose or the dsx250, the ds250 is designed by rotax and brp/canam and they are assembled in taiwan. thats the only thing they have in common with the kymco and the dvx250- they're made in taiwan

what is the bore and stroke on the mongoose and the dvx250, its not the same as the ds250, they are different engines in different plastics and in different frames.
