Default BLASTER VS. WARRIOR, Help on decision.

I was wanting to know, I'm not the richest person in the world, so my dad decided a Blaster would be good, and my friend just got a new 2003-04 warrior I was wanting to know what if a Stock Yamaha Blaster 250 would out run a Stock warrior. And if you could help me out what would be a good cheap four wheeler that would out run a warrior.

Well, first off the Blaster isnt a 250, it is a 200. And stock for stock I think the Warrior may have a little higher topspeed, but the blaster will accerlerate a lot better. If you arent going to be racing or anything Id say get the Warrior, it has better bottom end and midrange for trails and it still has a good topspeed. The Blaster is a lot cheaper than a Warrior, but I say spend more money and get a better quad. You cant really go wrong with a Warrior, they are bullet proof, good engines, and last for a long time when properly maintained. I say get the Warrior over the Blaster. I think Blasters are to small. I sat on a Blaster and my knees hit the front fenfers and whenever I turned the bars my knees scraped against them. The bottom line is Blasters are to small so get a better quad and get a Warrior!!

stock for stock the warrior will beat the blaster in acceleration and top speed. If you put $350 in a blaster for a toomey pipe kit and a bigger front sprocket you will have a stock warrior beat everywhere.

i think if you want more aggressive punch then you want the blaster. if you want a trail machine with good pull through all rpms go warrior. i ride a blaster and personally i think it's a lot quicker than a warrior. by that i mean not a lot faster top speed but nimble and quick punch revs.

Theyre both good machines and lets just agree theyre good in diffrent ways...
Blaster,a little slower stock but more potential to go faster
warrior,faster stock,nmice broad power,better for bigger riders
