want to sell my trailblazer and possibly get a 03 or 04 blaster, but i dont know if it will be good for me. I do alot of trail riding, alot of mud. and i want to know if the clutch will be a pain in the a$$.

 

well if you don't like the shifting, stick with the auto, but I think the blaster is better. cluthches aren't a hassle, they just require some getting used to if you usually ride an auto.

 

get the blaster

 

Ummm............................................BL ASTER

 

your at the Yamaha board, what else are we going to say? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Wildman does have a point.

 

if the traliblazer was better, I would say it...but it aint!

 

i ride in sand only, and i've rode a trailblazer there, and it aint pretty!

 

the trailblazer is probably not going to get stuck as easily. but i know the trailblazer isn't going to be as reliable

 

As usual, it depends on what you want to do with the machine. If you spend 80-90% of your time on trails, you will want to stick with the Trailblazer, the constant shifting will get old on a Blaster, the frame is larger and the ride will be more comfortable. If you are wanting to venture into more of a sport usage then the Blaster will be tons more fun. I have a Trailboss which is great for me because I stick to mainly trails and leisure riding. My son has a Blaster and he has a blast jumping, donuts, whoops and such. He can stay with me on the trials but he is young so the shifting doesn't bother him so much.
