Default is an lt250r right for me

I am an all out trail rider: mud, hills, and ramps. I also have a need for speed.I way around 220 pounds and im 6'3''. Is a slightly modified 1991 suzuki lt250r for $1850 that comes with a 1987 basket case right for me? Or is a slightly modified 1999 blaster for $1500 right for me?I need help!!! I currently have a 1999 polaris 250 trailblazer stock!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]

Da blaster is gonna be a wee bit small for you. Im 5' 9" weigh 140lbs, and a blaster is almost too small for me, none the less to little of power. I ride a '92 LT250R, and i have to say, it hauls the groceries, and with the bandit XC kevlar tires on it, i can take it just about anywhere.

Ok, deffinetly dont get the blaster! Iam about 5'8" and 160lb and ive ridden a 1999 blaster, i felt really cramped on it, the back brakes barely worked, it took about one day of riding with it for me to prett much master it (and on difficult terrain) the blasters engine is just too small. Deffinetly go for the LT. Iam going to be getting one around chritmas time, and if you ask around, people will tell you just how great the LT is.

Jump on that Lt and never look back at that blaster. The blaster is better suited for a smaller person or beginner. On the Lt you will find more power, better braking, better suspension, and the size will fit you better.
