Default how fast is a blaster? will modify, one in my area for sale.

subject sums it up there is a 2002 blaster in my area with a FMF exhaust system for sale I am thinking of buying. How fast are blasters stock? would the exhaust add much? is 1750.00 a good price.

I am willing to modify the engine just not internally. I would be willing to get manifold and reeds, new carb and or jet kit. k&n filter modified airbox. and I am willing and capable of swapping the cam. new sprockets. basically anything I can get for under 300.00 im pretty much game.

This seems to be a good buy, I'm going between this and a kawi tecate I know the tecate will be faster but they arn't exactly reliable.

I know these seem to be beginer questions but I always had stock three wheelers and am thinking of trying a modifed quad. If I could get a 65-70mph staright line top end I would be satisfied as most of my riding would be trail riding and theres plenty of tree's around here.


all and any help is appreciated

2-strokes don't have cams.
Blaster's top speed is about 56-60mph. The pipe will add acceleration and throttle responce more then it will speed.

I would go for it dude. Blasters are great for tight tree-lined trail riding and even better with an FMF pipe. sounds like a good and fair price.

Also...i know Shav0 will prolly answer soon but i think he got his port work done from Hollywood Dirt. i hear their the best. forgive me if im givin out falso info bout yr quad Shav0 but i think thats right.

Blasters have alot of potential and a huge amount of after market parts availible. The best bang for the buck is haveing it ported and using a pipe, and intake to compliment the porting.
