i was going to say a 400ex for $2100. they are very durable and can handle some jumping.

Warriors are great quads, you can't kill they are a little heavy for a 350 but they aren't that hard to jump. If you want a good jumping quad I'd look for a 250r or Quadracer 250 those jump like no other.

Yeah, I would be looking more for a 400EX if you want to jump and such at that price point.

oh i have seen the prices that low. my buddy sold his 440ex with full hmf pipe, aftermarket filter, hotcam, heavy duty timing chain, gt thunder rev box, jetted carb, etc for $2300. plus, a 400ex is not that much faster than a warrior. i rather learn on a 400ex myself.

ugh blaster. You want a good jumping quad? In my opinion the blaster is much worse than your 250ex would have been for jumping. They're too short and unstable to fly straight, and the shocks are like pogo sticks. You really get what you pay for with quads. There's a reason the blaster is the cheapest adult size quad in production, and has been for many years. You really shouldn't even waste your money on one of the little things if you're really concerned about performance.

The problem with the 300ex jumping is that the stock shocks blow out too easily though, so you have to take that into consideration. I vote towards the warrior. Stock for stock they jump about as good as the 300ex except they're just a little heavier, but you can put banshee shocks on them to make them even more jump-friendly for cheap.
