Default Z FOR ME?

I'm 6'1 180lbs. i trail, creek and field ride a lot, I was thinking about a z250, i was wondering if this bike would fit me very well...too slow? not enough power, no leg space etc. I ride a kodiak right now.

I dont know man it has enough power if you are light enough , not sayin anything about you of course[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] it is just I am 15 and I am 5'2 and only weigh 118 pounds. It is the best for power and sportiness in the 250 class. But if I were i would look into something a little bit more bigger that that. 300ex, Z400, or save up and wait for the all new Z450 or comparible quad

I am 5'9" and weigh almost 200. The z has plenty of power for trails and rec riding but for the track or anything real big Iwould go with the z400. the z250 will top out around 55 mph or so but there are some mods to make it go a bit faster. like pipe, jets and filter

huh... I didnt know it performed all that well with more wieght on it. I think if you are not going to have ur quad where you can ride the ***** of it as far as top speed wise then you should do fine for the Z250. But you may eventually want to get a clutch kit for it.
