Will a Blaster Fit ME?

[369DuneBunny]

predator? i dunno how they handle, but shees aren't the best handling quads but it's totally doable......the suspension isn't the best but not alot of bikes come with great suspension unless it's a yfz, but i guess what i'm saying is you'll learn....with every bike you gotta learn different tricks and if you can make a manual bike move you can ride.....

and yes, yer too big for a blaster....i mean....you can ride one but you'll be super unimpressed and will get bored fast unless you wanna resleeve it and port it and basically make everything bigger......

i personally think you'll be happy with a banshee

i'm about 6'2 and can say you'll will not fit on a blaster....no fuckin way....get a banshee

[fast350]

oh and learning on a banshee isn't a big deal....that was my first

I'm 6'1" and am very uncomfortable on a Blaster. My knees find those front fender mounting bolts and get rub burns within a couple of hours. Don't get me wrong, a Blaster is bad-ass and can be made into an incredible ride, it's just that the chassis is too small for a big guy.

There are lots of nice quads out there. If you can handle a Predator 500 you'll handle the Banshee just fine. The best thing about the Banshee that I've found is that it doesnt matter how weak it is in stock form. It can be modded in virtually any way you could imagine. It has the top place in every list you can find for being the most "aftermarket-capable".

I retract my original statment. I say go with what 369PortingPrincess says cuz she looks hot and to top it off she rides and knows her shit. "I wounder if shes single"

Like they all said, banshees are fun as hell, have a ton of power.. You wont have a problem lerning to ride on it, it takes a while to get good at going slow haha. but if your going to be riding with utilities that just fart around your going to get so pissed off very quick. I find it difficult to hold a steady slower speed that most utilities go, its like my banshee launches then im right on there ass, then i slow down then i lauch , over and over again...... If you want to become a good rider and are up for the challange then get a Shee... They are an AWSOME quad, youll ride one forever once you get your first

what kane said.........after you get used to stocker form it's still all good after that .........

hooray for portwork, drag pipes, and stroker cranks.....

You could go either way.

My GF has a blaster and im 6'3 250 and i can drive it just fine, but it does seem a little small and its definately not fast.

Getting the banshee is really a question what you want, id recommend the banshee though. These people saying 'oh the shee is to fast etc etc' really have no idea of your background. Have you ridden fast quads, dirtbikes etc? (Your 15 so i doubt your a full gearhead)

IF you havent and you really think that something fast would scare ya a bit then maybe its not safe.

I just bought my first quad ever 3 months ago and it was a banshee, now i weigh a bit so its definately not like throwing a 150 pounder on it. But i have ridden dirtbikes and fast cars etc and i wanted something FAST (As you see by my mods these were done in the first 2 weeks).


You know what? F' it. Get the banshee. Stock they have a screw on the throttle that can limit how much throttle you give them. put that half way in and unscrew it as you get used to it. Case closed.
