Default Need Opinions

Hey everyone, I want t know your opinions on a couple questions.

So the three choices are:
Blaster 250
Raptor 350
Trx 400ex

Out of the those choices, which quad is the over all best? What quad is the best on the dunes? What quad would win in a drag race? And what quad would be best a MX? Ive been debating with some friends so I need your opinions.

Thanks

The 400ex will be the best of those three at everything! Lots of aftermarket parts available as well.

Every Blaster I've seen is a 200 2-stroke, not a 250. But a 400ex is still more powerful.

The newer blasters are a 250cc 4 stroke. They had to go with a 4 stroke after the EPA outlawed 2 strokes in most atvs. The older ones were faster though. The 400ex would be the one I would pick. A blaster is tiny anyway, anyone over 5'6" would be cramped on it.

Jumbo, your right, I meant a blaster 200. And Greg, he is 5,9 so yea, it looks kind of weird.

Im glad everyone agrees my 400ex is the best.

I've never seen one, but I don't spend much time looking at sport quads. When did they quit making the Blaster 250s?

I know one person who still rides a Blaster 200 with a stage 1 kit. She can zip down some trails faster than the rest of us. The narrow width sure comes in handy. Some of the utility quads are up to 48" and most of the trails are "maintained" at 50". Her husband looks like he's on a kids quad when he gets on it. I went for a very short ride on it and it felt like my knees were way too close to my face.
