hi. my sister wants a motorbike and not sure wat to get her. thinking of a blaster or a warrior. which would be best for her (she is 15yrs old, 50-60 kg) she not a bad rider also!

 

Either one is a great bike, neither are made anymore. The warrior is a little bigger and will probably last longer, they are known for being tanks. If she likes a little more speed and maybe to build the quad up later on i would go with the blaster. How tall is she?

Welcome to the forums [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

um shes about 170ish cm or something. we used to have a 600 grizzly and she could through that around pretty well! So a blaster is faster? Yeh we would probly add a pipe or soemthing later cause shes abit of a rev head [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

and ty for the welcome [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

oh and how would a blaster keep up with a banshee and a yz 125? and would a pipe do much to it?

 

I dont know about the 125 but it wont keep up with a shee even with a pipe. If your just taking it easy on some trails itll be more than enough power for her. Blasters are good quads with low maintainance, so are warriors but overall the blaster is faster. If shes a speed demon go with the blaster and upgrade her to a banshee or big 4 stroke later on.

 

yeh we just got a brand new banshee and thats got loads of power! powerband is buetiful [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Hay does the blaster really even have a powerband? or is it like all smooth power cause in videos ive seen there very quite and look rather slow with not much of a powerband!

 

They hit NOTHING like a banshee, but an experienced rider can tell when the motor is making the most power. It hits a little less in the rpms than the banshee. Its much more noticable with a nice exhaust. Got anything done to the shee yet?

 

ah k so is the powerband alot more noticeble with a power pipe like toomey or something?
Na its bone stock jsut got it like a week ago. (its my dads banshee) he thinks its fast enough as is but he wants to get a bigger accel and better tyres cause its quite rolly! I ride it more then him [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] only just broke it in so yeh.

 

ok if the rider on the shee is not going full bore all the time the blaster would keep up for the most part if your all going fun and not racing. my blasters power is mostly top with a bit of mid. the 125 the blaster couldnt touch anywhere but all machines will keep up with each other really with euall riders and if there not racing. But its like riding with other ppl with blaster like 4 of my friends have them and they are mostly stock and the z 400s and stuff have to wait for a min or so once in a while to let them catch up if were going fast. im usually ahead of the blaster and with the 350s and 400s but the z's with some mods (bores, pipes etc.) can leave me in the dust almost anytime for the most part. if She is a rev head or whatever the laster would be good for her becasue its a two stroke and like to be revved. Modded the warriors are pretty fast on trails and stuff but so is the blaster with an agresive rider aboard. But again u would have to find these amchines used because most dealers have sold them all already. but they are nice machines. but are u going to race> what are they mostly going to be used for?

 

so a 125 and a blaster are about same speed? or like a yz80 or 65, because was thinking of getting a 2 wheeler also $$$ wise. might even just get a second hand banshee for her :S she seems to luv it but she doesnt even use powerband yet so tiem will tell. She may crap herself going around a corner and hitting powerband on the shee, i wanna see hehe. but yeh blaster sounds best at the moment, oh and also wats the stock suspension like on the blaster cause i went as saw a 2004 stock blaster and pushed the back suspension down and it like took ages for it to come back up? Could it be that, that blaster's suspension was buggered or wat?

thnx
