Title: Guidance on a bike Post by: Roostin300ex on June 20, 2006, 12:26:33 AM i havent been able to ride my four wheeler forever due to broken sruff but i guy i work with is buying it tomorrow. I am looking to buy another quad and want a fast bike that i can possibl use for recreational racing but mainly just to ride fast and have fun with...the budget is roughly $2500. I asm considering a raptor, 400ex, or 250R. guidance please...are 250Rs going to be to old with too many problems? I Know 400 exes are great reliable bikes wiuth tons of aftermarket parts....and the only bad things ive heard about a raptor are that it is top heavy

Good luck to you, maybe an older 40 ex, you can probably find an r for that price though.

Infact our quad mechanic picked up a 03 400ex with low hours and no probs for what your budget is. And your right about the aftermarket because used to a 400 was all you got so there is a ton of aftermarket for these quads. So i would say a 400ex or a comparable 400 sport quad.

Title: Re: Guidance on a bike Post by: MadMudder on June 21, 2006, 12:03:12 AM Hey, I did a little research on atvtrader.com . I got 3 offers for you to take a look at.
1. 2002 Honda 400ex $2500 Phone Number 1-314-842-8659 Its in good condition and the guy has done a bunch of extra matinence. Its been in a shed for the past year cause he bought a dirt bike and doesnt want it anymore. 2. 2000 Honda 440ex $2800 Claimed to be in good condition. Has the 440 kit in it plus renthal handle bars and full skidplates. 3. 2003 Suzuki z400 $3500 or best offer 940-789-2169 This is probably the best deal in this post. He is going to college and needs cash. This thing has more modifications then I could list. He listed them all and its almost 9000 worth of modifications. If you want to race a little bit then you could get this quad and drive out to a track with out any time spent on it. |
