I am 15 years old and am getting a new quad this year I live in Central illinois and ride some trails but lots of mX and somtimes we go over to Indiana badlands. I am looking at buying a 2003 400EX or a 2003 Blaster which would be better

 

400ex

 

400ex, and if you can KFX/Z would be better

 

no contest, the 400ex would be your best choice, provided the extra money isnt a commanding factor. just some advice though, look into the z/kfx 400 twins if you are going the 400ex route. they sticker at the same price, and are qute a bit faster and have some really nice features like reverse and a liquid cooling system.

 

check out this thread, it will help you out.
