There are literally hundreds of posts dealing with this comparison. The yamaha sits nicely between the two hondas. Its a 350, its where you would expect it to be. Do a search or two and you will have more info than you can handle.

How would you like if i called your KFX a piece of green crap that i can out run it with a unicycle? If you dont have anything good to say dont say nothing at all.

My first quad was a Warrior.......our first trip to the dunes, and I came home and sold it. Got a 400ex.....the Warrior couldn't get up any hills......I was so mad!!! But it's a fine trail quad....nothing wrong with it.....it's bulletproof, comfortable, and fun enough.....but when you want to ride it aggressively, it shows it's biggest weak points.....HANDLING! At least they look 100% better now!! I like their new look....

The Warrior is faster but the 300EX is better handling. Even though its way outdated I really value it alot since its my first quad but still one heck of a ride.Its not a Z or a Raptor for that matter but i am happy with what i got.

I really dont like the new look for it though i dont like the raptor 350 (no offense girlygirl) it really killed the original look of the warrior the least they could do is keep the plastics for cripes sake.
