Default depends

well i tell you what all in all it depends on how tall you are i have owned both of these machines and to be honest i feel a blaster is a bit small for me i am 6'0 and have caught myself in situations where my knees have hit the handle bars while riding trails while sitting, that is completely unacceptable, but if your a bit shorter its up to you and i have noticed warriors seem to have a bit higher re sale value by the way i still own my warrior so yea

I would go for the Blaster. They are so much fun in the woods.

What kind of riding do you do? I've got a warrior and I like that I can putt down a trail and don't have to constantly shift gears like on 2 stroke bikes I've owned. The 350cc 4 stroke has enough torq down low that you can really still plug through a lot at lower rpms where with the blaster I'm sure you'd have to be downshifting more to keep your speed up. I love the two stroke sound and high-rpm power but if you like to do a lot of riding down winding trails a 4 stroke is better. If you're gonna be doing mostly higher speed riding I would go for the blaster.

Warrior is quicker than a Blaster all around, but with a little more sluggish handling due to the weight. If the weight doesn't bother you I would go with the Warrior easily.

Blaster's tend to be very unreliable if they haven't been properly maintained versus the Warrior which is about impossible to break.
