I'm looking into purchasing a used sport quad, and I've really been looking for a decent used Warrior in the 2000-2700$ range that's relatively new, without an awful lot of luck. I was riding around the other day and noticed a used Blaster, didn't look too old, for sale on someone's lawn. My question is, will I fit on a Blaster? I'm 5'11" or so, and not too hefty (165), but I don't really want to buy a quad I'll be overly cramped on... but if the price is right, and it's not TOO small........

So, how big a person will the Blaster accomodate? I know quite a few of you guys have Blasters, and you're definitely not all little kids...

I haven't had a chance to go out seriously looking (read: sit on them/drive them a bit), but if I know that I won't fit on one, I won't bother wasting my time with that...
Also, if I were to purchase a Blaster, what kind of performance would I be looking at, bone stock?

Well it all depends on what you feel comfortable on. I am 5"9 and i have no problem riding mine. Then my friend gets on who is shorter and says its kind of small. So it all depends on your riding style and how comfortable it is for you. A bone stock Blaster is fast for its class, but it only hits around 55-60. Mine is far from stock and it hits about 65-70. I am looking to purchase something a bit bigger since my friend has a raptor and the other a banshee.
