[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]you need to ride one first, and make that decision on your own. And also remember that i said I told you so when you regret the fact that you didnt get a 660R [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Well now that depends on your riding style. I noticed that you a an Ozark now with a winch on it. I assume you play in mud, if thats the case yes, getting stuck all the time and getting covered from wheel spin gets old fast.

And alot of them probably just need to feed their big egos....... If I remember correctly your a younger smaller fella on a budget, right? And I also think you had said you'd be doing mostly trail riding? If thats the case, then the 350 will be fine for you. Bigger motor doesn't neccesarily make you faster if you can't handle the power/use it to the fullest. I've ridden with people on 300ex's, 250x's, and Z400s that could hang perfectly fine with me when I was on my Raptor, or my Predator. Take what these guys on here say into consideration, but in the end remember YOUR the one who will be riding the quad, not them. Alot of people on here are just teenage (or younger) kids that think they have to have the biggest baddest quad and that everything else is worthless. Theres nothing wrong with the mid-sized quads.

Just a thought -You might want to try the Suzuki Z400, I have one and its an awesome ride and for the trails it gets way better.

i really think i 'm going to buy that one because if i want to make it better i could just or a pipe and new tires or what ever will suit me. i sat on one a this dealer ship and i like and when i sat on the z400 it felt to big for me. the 350 is an adult quad that i can grow into and i like that too about it. also i m the kind of person that likes to get a updated one.
