You are to tall, and depending on your age you still could be growing. Get a Banshee or a Raptor!

Im 5'9 and 100kg and found the Blaster to be pretty good size wise, although the literature does state that 100kg is teh max weight for the Blaster. If your looking for a long termer then I would recommend going for something bigger such as the Warrior etc. as you will find on hills the Blaster is on the limit to a certain degree, and turning tight can be a pain sometimes as the handle bars will come around and onto your knees. I can definately recommend one htough.

Yea you are a little tot all for a Blaster in my opinion. You will quickly wish you had bought somthing different. How about a nice used 300EX? You can get a sweet one for around the same price as a Blaster or if you have more to spend go for a Warrior (suspension not near as good as the 300EX but more power and it's a Yamaha!)

I agree with this. Hate to tell ya bud, but you'll look like Godzilla riding a tricycle on that thing. You need at least a 300ex/warrior. 300ex's are great bikes, and you'll have alot of fun on them. Deuce's reasoning on the warrior I have to disagree on.... being a yamaha would make me NOT want to buy the warrior. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img] . Seriously, warriors (unlike raptors) are Solidly built quads. You won't go wrong with either.

Don't waste your money on a Blaster. A 300EX or a Warrior will do the Justice. I'm 5'9" 140lbs and ride a warrior. I've yet to be beat by ANY Blaster. I've rode a Blaster, and found it underpowered, and very uncomfortable to ride at my height. You will definately have to push the handle bars forward, or you will crack your knee caps on every turn. I believe you will be very dissappointed with that little bike... Big Scary said it the best, " You will look like a Monkey f@ckin a football on that little bike" Good Luck!!!!
