Default Am I to big for a Blaster?

Hey guys, christmas is coming up and i desperately want a quad, the one that i figured was best for me and in my price range was the Yamaha Blaster, since this is my first quad and it is perfect price for me(I dont want to buy used and dont want to spend a fortune), the only problem is am 5'9 and 200 lbs am 14 yrs old, now I read other posts that at that height and weight is to big for the blaster, is this true?

the only way your going to be be able to know if it fits you is to go and ride one. one 6 ft guy could feel comfortable, but another one might not. i recomend you ride one and see what you think.

Yea, but I read all the other posts and they said that that size is way to big so is a 300ex anymore bigger then a blaster>

The only thing is I dont have alot of time I need to knwo by Christmas, I cant really try one out, I dont want to buy anything used so considering this is my first quad do you think I should just buy it, is it going to really be that small? if it is is it really worht to spend 1,200 more for a 300ex?

well buying a quad takes time if you really want to make sur you get what you want. you could always see if the dealler would let you ride it around the parking lot or something. i am short and i love the blaster, but i want more power. like i said everyone is different so its hard to tell you if youll like it, but if you sit on it and it feels good and your really in a hurry then yea i would say buy it, if not i would give it some time and try other things.

Yea i know but i cant do that cuz am 14 and its illegal to do that at the dealer, you have to be 16 to buy it, so my dad has to buy it so i gotta tell him which one i want and it has to be pretty cheap so I have a problem, I need to know if a blaster is the right choice, will I be really cramped on it?(am 5'9,200 lbs,) or will it be able to last me 1-2 years? BTW this is the first quad I will ever be purchasing...
