What is the BEST sport quad ever? Your opinion?
yeah i agree, depends what you do with it,
for me i like the raptor 700, not just cuz i have it, but i got it cuz it was what suited me, i ride trails/ dunes , snow, mud, and hopefully some tracks some day, has reverse, efi and lots of power, handling has been great so far and will only get better....
if you havn't had a chance to ride one, check it out, i ride with guys that have yfzs,450r,400, 350's. and i always have them take the rappy for a spin and no one has been disapointed yet, infact they come back with a goofy smile cuz of all the tourqe they just experienced =)
but all those other quads are great 2.

Hands down best ever is the TRX250R. All the current great 4 stroke bikes are only refinements on that design. The 250R can be built from the ground up to be all around better also. Yes you have to work on a 2 stroke.... Guess what? You have to work on performance 4 strokes also and that costs more!
The shee is great for duning and drags but that isn't all there is. The TRX can do about everything!

only one problem with that... the 1989 250R was WHITE! the 88 was red. the red, to this day is still one of the best looking quads made... its kinda like a bmw- it has that 'timeless' look to it...imo.
but you can put the red plastics and stuff on all yrs... i ordered the red for my 86 model...love that machine.
i think the 250R won this 'poll' by a landslide with the venerable classics holding close like the banshee, lt500, etc. of the next quintessential quads, the cannondal has to be mentioned for jolting the market with pure innovation, and then the YFZ has to get the title of nearest 'replacement' to the 250R..sorry honda, they did a better job... maybe in 2008 you'll get it right! we can have honarable mentions to the newer, all around quads like the 400ex, z400, raptor. but the one that will always be remembered even 5-10 yrs from now is still going to be the trx250R... it set the standard and in many ways remains the measuring stick for this segment of the market.
