the warrior sounds like it would be thebest one for you.......bullet proof!....and very stable for steep hills......

 

step on your rear brake before shifting reverse folks. this takes the load of the gears and will make shifting in and out alot easier. someone showed me this last year and it changed my life.

 

dont get a warrior unless you r planning to hop it up they r to slow u will b bored in about a month

 

get a 300ex or if u have the money go with a banshee or 400ex

 

The warrior is a great quad i have a 1997 and i go up hills that i can hardly walk up and i weigh 225 pounds its all stock tires and all. the speed is plenty for me i think you should get the warrior its an awsome ATV.

 

how would be be any less bored with a 300ex? its slower. A banshee is a good quad and faster, but its 1300 bucks more and has no reverse.

 

I agree with Jackel, a 300ex, unless hopped up against a stock Warrior, will not beat a Warrior, stock for stock. The performance is a little better, due to it being lighter, but the reverse on the 300ex sucks. You can also hop up a Warrior to compete with a 400ex, so there you go.

 

I will second DIABLO..........
I outran a piped,jetted, and filtered(by a professional) 300ex with my sportsman 500H.O.

I would say warrior all the way.....

 

what r u people saying.......... the 300ex is way lighter than the warrior and it gos much faster....ive owned both........ my friend has a warrior and i smoke mine and him even when we switched quads...yeea the reverse does suk on the 300ex...hehe

 

i say get a warrior and i dont think 300ex's can compete with warriors
