I do not have a quad yet, but hopefully by the end of next week i will.


first: I have ridden my friends blaster and i just isn't enough power for me. WOuld the raptor 350 have enough power for me?

Second: My dad is fully committed to buying 2 snowmobiles, but isn't sure about buying an atv because he believes they are much more dangerous. Are there any tips you guys have in convincing him they are safe. PS we have 153 acres of land in vermont and want to use it to the fullest.

The warrior has more punch than the blaster the power is not the same the blaster its all speed. I suggest you get a Warrior or the more updated version the raptor 350 because the blaster has a smaller diameter but still an excellent quad but a Warrior/Raptor has everything you need to learn how to ride safely.

If you want to convince your father that they are safe wear a helmet and ride with patience until you can pick up some extra experience then you can let yourself go and proving to him that theyr hella fun also. Good luck.

i really dont think there is much difference between the blaster and 350. if a blaster difinitly isnt enought power... than the 350 isnt either.
look into a z-400.


IMO quads are safer... a sled doesnt handle as well... and a quad goes about 1/2 the speed.
and of course always add to the arguement that a quad is used 12 months out of the year... not 3.
