Buy a used warrior. if this is your first quad, you may grow out of it quick. you could be looking for a 2 stroke or a Raptor by the end of the year.

biggest problem with the warriors are the tires and handle bars. you'll be modding your new warrior the first time you take it out for a ride. buy used. lokk for a 2000 that was bought for someones wife that isn't using it. let them take the hit.

right on. i also heard about a front suspension upgrade that'll make it ride (almost) as good as an ex400. is it worth beefing up the suspension on this thing?
