Buying a used quad

[Lildaisygrl18]

Ok so heres the deal.....Im looking to buy a used quad for now...cant afford a brand new one. I really want a 2000 or newer yamaha warrior. What is your opinion on these ......

[trailblazer_02]

heavy but very good quads.

[BuckBilly]

Good quad and bullet proof.

skip the warrior and find a 400ex I bought mine for 1500 used...and never really had any trouble with it, just general maintenance stuff, brake pads/oil/tires, etc...and she's got a whole race season under her belt! they say 400ex's are bulletproof and I believe it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[trailblazer_02]

well so is a warrior...

:roll:

[wheeler0801]

never really heard too much about yami's....course i've only been riding about a year and a half too..i'm sure i hear more about hondas cause thats what i roll with

plus, i think hondas look better than yamahaaaaaaaaaaas :-D

[trailblazer_02]

looks arent everything.

and to tell the truth. all the other 400s. "Kawi,Suz, and AC"

are faster than an ex.

[wheeler0801]

no way, how do you know that? my pink and black dream machine hauls as* when i need her to!

[trailblazer_02]

well you got "her" all modded up too. lol

Some of my buddies have had warriors , and they all liked them.There a little on the slow side for me but other than that from what ive seen they are bulletproof.

[Lildaisygrl18]

wow well thanks so much for all the help....yeah i have rode warriors in the past and loved them. I found one to look at for $1800...a 2002 so i will look at it and see what happens

[wheeler0801]

good luck :)

theres nothing wrong with a warrior and whatever deal presents itself at the time is what I would go with. As someone else the warriors are alittle heavy and not a good choice if you plan on racing. I you may race I would find a nice 400, which go for about the same used. If you plan on just riding there is nothing wrong with the warrior it will do everything you want it to do. Which ever way you go, I would find something that is stock. That way you know what you are getting and you can starting modifying it to you preference and is more dependable.

:iagreec:when i got my 400 it was all pretty much stock, even the pipe...I've loved being able to add the things I want and make it my own:yes:
