i am wanting to sell my 95 scrammy and get a blaster i know thats probably a bad idea lol but i want a little sport quad anyway what do i need to check besides compression on a used blaster and are there any main problems in the 99-02 models

thanks

 

no,
see if you can get a 03, better brakes and stuff.

 

like shavo said 03 is revised with a new headlight and disc brakes

what size rider are you??? Height/Weight?

 

Check the oil injection system. If the oil injection is blocked off, make sure it was done properly. Some people just remove the tank and cut the lines from the carb to the pump inside the case. Often people forget to plug the fitting on the carb and dirt gets in through the opening and causes damage to the top end. Also check all the bushings and bearings. The a-arm bushings are known to wear out rather frequently, but are inexpensive to replace ($30 on ebay). As mentioned before if you buy a blaster made prior to 03, make sure all the brakes work good. Other than that they are great little quads that can be made pretty quick with a couple mods.

 

ok i had some more questions oh yeah i am 5 foot 5 and 170 pounds, what is the compression i should look for in a used blaster like 125 or 130?
