Title: I need help picking a new ATV. Post by: f1gopedder on May 12, 2006, 09:27:11 PM Hey Guys,
I am new to this forum. For the past 2 years I have owned a kasea skyhawk 250 ATV. I just now started doing the tricks and jumps so I am a beginner. It has been great to me, with no major break downs or anything. I gpsed it at 50 mph. I can do a few tricks on it and it has just gotten way to small for me and I have no idea what kind of ATV i should get next. Here is a very little video I have of me on it. Nothing special. I need a new atv that i can do tricks on. I have a new track in my back yard since we have 5 acres and my dad built the track. The new ATV will be used for going fast down a dirt road, jumps, and wheelies. I want one that you can punch the throttle and do a wheelie while you are going. That would be great. Thanks a lot for the help. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4_fRonY0QFk Mike Title: Re: I need help picking a new ATV.

going from a 250cc up to a 450 like the YFZ might be too big of a jump,,,,a 400cc would be a better choice in my opinion,,,,of course I'm biased towards Honda's due to their reliability.

Post by: Fox17 on May 12, 2006, 11:40:00 PM get a honda 400ex. the 450s would be too much of a jump probably. the 300ex is a decent fast bike but not a very fast one like a 450. any 400 would be good i guess but i perfer honda! ride red.

Title: Re: I need help picking a new ATV. Post by: Tripyn on May 14, 2006, 08:38:12 AM I own a TRX 450R and love it. However, it is A LOT of bike and you can get hurt quick (personal experince.) I agree with the other members, move up to like a TRX 400 and get cozy with that, you can always trade it in later if you want to move up.

Post by: klutchbuster400 on May 14, 2006, 06:30:01 PM older z's can be found cheaper then newer 400ex's with reverse, and the z has reverse on all years, and they are wheelie machines!!!!!

z400's :-[ Title: Re: I need help picking a new ATV. Post by: MadMudder on May 14, 2006, 08:53:35 PM Well if you want wheilies on command then mabye a bomb 800...? Na i would listen to these guys, they know what they are talking about. Plus i've rode a z400 a few times and trust me, its all the bike you would ever need and there is a ton of aftermarket upgrades for them. So i would go with the z400 or 400ex but hondas are a bit more expensive....
