Way to go Yamaha, finally some much needed improvements to the Blaster. I had a 98 but they all looked the same. I would think of buying another one now. Disk brakes are a big plus and that front end is really nice.

 

are their any pix on tha net of the new plastic? i personaly dont see why alotta people like the blasters, good for 8-12 year olds, but after that, i dunno, o well, if its not my quad my opinion dont matter lol

 

Yeah just check at www.yamaha-motor.com they have pictures of them all.

 

well it does look alot better, and the new brakes a plus, [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] if they made tha blaster a 250-300cc and beefed up the price a bit, maybe 3500-4200, theyd make a killing i think [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] cant wait to see one with the new plastic shaved, should look good, practicly the only thing i dont like about it now (looks wise) is how the frame sticks out in front..o well....

also the new limited edition black w/ blue flame raptor and yellow flame on black plastic banshee, look VERY kewl [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] i thought when i saw someone say theyrd be flames, i figured theyd make the over-dramatized flames usually seen, these fames a suttle and cool [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

All they would have to do is put a YZ250F motor in it, a better rear shock and they would have a baby Raptor. Once you get those stock rear tires off the Blaster is a great trail machine. I did not buy my Raptor for the power. I bought it for the suspension.

 

It looks like a ticked off 250EX.

 

I think it loooks ugly!!!!!!!!but the brakes rock but i wanna punch it in the face though.....

 

Not that its that ugly its just new. Itll take some getting used to just like when Ford changed in 97 I sure thought that was an ugly A$$ truck, but I have learned to like them. Any way guess I dont need to hang on to this extra warrior brake setup now.
