i like the size of blasters and how you can just throw them around. i've ridden a built YFZ450, modded LTR450, craptor 700, 400ex, 300ex, banshee, my Zilla, etc.
for trails I'd take my 06 blaster hands down.
for going fast I'd take my Zilla, but I have to admit, I would get smoked on the trails with it because it's so damn big.
and plus all those other quads I listed besides the banshee have 2 too many strokes. who wants to ride on a rolling fart can?
and for that price breakdown uptop
I am like this (for my Zilla)
Quad: $1150 (a STEAL, I know)
Pipe: $225 (hand coned, how can you beat that price)
Carb: $230 (Keihin 38mm PWK Airstriker)
Plastics: $500 (Yes, looks are important lol)
Wheels: $250 (already had new rears when I got it)
Misc Stuff: $300 (hey, its an 87)
Total: $2655 and aside from built banshees I'm not getting beat in any terrain except tight woods
