I'm 15 and looking for a good 4wheeler. my father wont let my buy a 700xx becuase its "too powerfull for me".
but i cant go to low becuase im planning on riding with my friends and they have fast 4wheelers.
something around a 450-650 would be good. im not to experienced also. once i turn 16 ill buy my own trx700xx.
any suggestions would be helpfull
Thanks.

You can find 400s all day long for under 3500. The 450 is a lot of machine for someone with no experience.

 

[Helmut]

I agree with Red. The 400EX would be a good choice.

the 400EX is even alot for an inexperienced rider guys and the 450 and 700 totally out of the question, my son is 15 and the 250EX is all he can handle, his riding ability is probably like yours. if you are worried about not keeping up with your friends,...Tough is your safety and lack of experience more important than a big 'ol quad? In the woods the 250 will easily keep up your not balls to the wall anyway open straights are different, if they can't be friends and hold off a bit for you then you need to find others to ride with. As a father I woould be against you getting anything larger than a 250 sorry.

i say 300ex well rounded for beginers id say

yah the 400ex or 300ex but im 13 and i ride my dads 525 troy lee and it about as fast as a stock 700 i think

A person riding a quad that is too small or too big can and will be very dangerous. Just because you ride a 525 sometimes doesn't make it safe. The kid also said he doesn't have much experience.

Very,Very much agreed. A 250 for a 15 year old with very little seat time is a good start. It will keep up with your friends on trail rides and be a whole lot safer.

You put me in the cockpit of a plane I bet I could take the controls for a minute.

 

[Redracer]

Exactly, I don't think you're good enough rider to take a 525 or a 660 at race pace. Maybe in a straight line, I'm not trying to be prick but only 1 year of experience I don't feel you could hang with a fast rider on a big bike.

well my dad been driven 3 wheelers and quads since he was 10 and he has a 525 now and i hang with him and my cuz

One question, Why arn't you in school?

You're 13, so of course you think you are invincible. We all did.

 

[Redracer]

If you are hanging with some one who has been riding that long, he is either not riding hard or he's not an aggressive rider. I guarantee you wouldn't hang with me and my riding buddies.

 

[mud99]

Shoot I bet he couldn't hand with me.

If you have never rode one and dont under stand the clutch and stuff I would go with the 250EX The 300EX is a good quad also but it has a clutch. I dont know much about the 250EX's but someone said that they were capable of being both its either a manual clutch or auto clutch built into the shifter.

 

[300ex power by monster]

they run hard but not agressof and i am in skool we had frre time lol

Yeah Moose, after rereading what he posted, I would say you're right. A 250EX would probably be a good choice or maybe a 300EX. But a 450 or bigger is just not a good ideal for any age, unless they are an experienced rider.
