Are warrior 350 any good?
I'm thinking about selling our bayou 220 and getting a warrior or another 300ex. Are the warriors any good are they realiable? I'm not worried about jumping. I mostly trail ride. Do they drift easy? I'm not worried about power and speed as long as it keeps up with a 300ex I'm happy. Are they known for any issues?
:thanks: |
The 348cc Yamaha motor has been around for 25+ years. The Honda is also reliable , just find the best deal you can of the two and you can't go wrong.http://www.atvreviewnetwork.com/enth...=309880&go2=Go A Warrior is the same as a 2013 Raptor.

I do like the EX a bit better. They aren't quite as fast stock, but handling is better and some smaller things like chain maintenance is easier. I recently just purchased a used 300EX for one of my kids. Dang but I had forgotten just how much fun these little guys can be!

Is the raptor 350 still in production for 2014?
Thanks Is $1600 too much for a warrior? I seen 2001 ATVs in better shape then some 2009s. Some atvs spend a lot of time parked in a garage other are ridden hard every other day, so its hard to say if its worth $1600. They were a $5000 ATV when new. |

Its not showing on Yamahas 2014-2015 list. Maybe its gone. The 348 Motor is still around in the 2015 350 Grizzly.
Its about condition not year when buying used. I seen 2001 ATVs in better shape then some 2009s. Some atvs spend a lot of time parked in a garage other are ridden hard every other day, so its hard to say if its worth $1600. They were a $5000 ATV when new. |
I live in Canada where your lucky if it runs for $1600.
Can,t remember but does the Warrior have a hand clutch like a motorcycle? |

I agree it's all about condition, not age, when buying used. I have had 2 Warriors
(88 and 89), and one TRX300EX, a 2001. Of the 3, the 88 was in the best shape, and I like older quads cuz the carbs are set richer and run better. Both ATVs are hand-clutch with reverse and park, but the Warriors definitely have more power. Since both are super-common, parts are easy to get, cheap. I do prefer how Honda implements the reverse control, on the left hand grip where it "belongs". You can pick up good working units of either around here for $1500-1700. I prefer both of these light sub-400# sporty quads for trail riding, vs. big, clunky 500-700# 4x4 utilities. Also, getting smaller drive sprockets and larger driven sprockets to lower the final drive ratio is easy. |
