when i was 13 i had a blaster for 1 year. i ended up trading it for a banshee. if you weigh over 170 i would get a shee, i was to big for the blaster, to big for the ex. i had a blast with my banshee, i road allot of woods, fire roads, gravel roads, pavement on my shee, i now have a raptor 660. i like it better than the shee due to mant. issues

For a new fourwheeler a banshee would be too much for you to handle.As for the blaster and 250 ex It just depends what kind of riding you'll be doing.Ive rode a 250 and its a great learning bike without a clutch and its awesome and trails and can handle some mud.Its shaft instead of chain with means less maintanence.Its also a honda so you can depend on it for years to come.Ive never ridden a blaster but from what ive heard they're better for the track.Just depends on where wou'll be riding it.

id get the banshee because your at that age where your going to grow through the years, and would rather see someone get as much out of a atv as possible

Your cuz is very smart. My first ATV was a blaster at the age of 12. I just sold it today. Opt for the Blaster and upgrade as your skills improve. You can find a good used one for dirt cheap.

your cuz is right, get a z250 instead of a 250ex, and take care of it so you can sell it later on for a good price when you decide to upgrade.
