Default banshee or blaster 4 my 15yr. old son?

either a z400, raptor660, or a warrior 350 which would be the cheapest investment, he doesnt like 400 ex scratch that...the blasters are too easily outgrown and slow, the raptor 250 is slightly slower than the blaster but has way better handling, yet will get outgrown very easily. id say a z400 depending on wut u wanna spend or for cheaper a warrior 350 that already has a few mods, ive never heard anyone complain about how a z400's not comfortable or anything either, everyone i know that has one is very happy.

Dude, if you want your son to die you will get him a 350 banshee... im 21 and i ride one. i hardly keep it in control, and it went 93 mph stock(Clocked by car) it now does 104mph.

HE IS 15 YEARS OLD!.

Id recommend a blaster bro. start small and get big man.

blaster is a good quad.
has alot of power for 200 cc.

Good luck.

Becarefull what you get your son bra.

How about if we answer his question instead of trying to convice him that 4 strokes are the only way to go.

Get a Banshee the blaster will be too small for him. If he did not like the 400 it is probably because he enjoys the explosive power delivey of a 2 stroke. Forget the options for a 4 stroke and get the banshee.

I really don't think that I would go with the Rappy 250 either. My sons is 15 an is 6' and 200 lbs. Up until this point he didn't have a choice what class to ride. If the rider is too big for the quad the fun is gone. they aren't able to move around in the corners an such and end up muscling it which leads to arm pump and other fading issues. He could spin 5 laps and come in completely exhausted, he took a ltr out and came in with smiles. Truth was in the expression. Just make sure the rider is ready for the HP increase before you send him on a Su****ide mission.
