Im 5'10" bout 145-150 lbs. I wasnt a quad that will fly and still performin the woods. What should I get. BTW, I've never owned one be4.

 

Yamaha Blaster or Honda 300 EX.

a 2-stroke is a heck of a way to learn.. what kind of riding do you plan to do with it? that dictates the ride you should seek. do you want something that i guarantee can scare ya? or something just for fun with plenty of power to grow on... i can suggest a few rides that'll really smack your pee-pee

------------------
ahhh! the taste of unburnt hydrocarbons in the morning, gotta love it!

'91lt250r, '94 xr250l, '84 Jeep CJ-7, all mildly modified

 

I want something that will FLY in the staightwaways yet be half way decent for the woods. I wont be in too Deep mud. Bu I FEEL THE NEED FOR SPEED.

 

Our buddie Max6x6 would tell you to get the Max6x6 for your type of riding.[or any type of riding for that matter]But myself and RoostKing are right on the money by saying the Blaster or 300ex would be the quad for you.Best of luck on whichever you choose. BILL

------------------

 

I know that the 300EX has a maual clutch, but what the Blaster have? I hope its a semi auto with the foot shifter like on a Big Bear 4x4.

 

Isn't the 300 EX a little small for a guy 5'-10"? Maybe a Warrior will suit him better. Some say it may not be as good in the woods as a 300 EX but it is definitely faster than the Blaster and EX.

My 2 cents.....keep the change!

so you want semi to an auto clutch, speed and trail riding 2 words 4 ya.POLARIS SPORT400!!! It's the 3rd fastest quad now

Not to mention the Polaris Sport 400(Scrambler ) is a pretty easy machine to learn on. Maybe a TrailBlazer 250 would be a better choice for a beginning rider? They have decent power, auto clutch, and can be hopped up a bit.

Sport400,
That's funny ya now. Up until '99 when the 400EX was made the Sport was 2nd fastest to only the Banshee. But hey all the "experts" say Polaris' are slow. Now the Banshee & soon to be released DS650 are faster. Don't believe Dirtwheels though, from what I've seen if a Sport & 400EX raced either could win anytime.
ps> I'm not including those Husabergs or whatever they are. They are like Aliens... heard about them, never seen them.
I agree with you guys a Sport or TB would be good too.
c-ya,
