Is The Yamaha Blaster The Best Budget ATV?!

that blaster looks quick. love the 2 stroke sound. thinking i may grab one of these now while they're cheap

I showed my dad this and I might be getting a new quad, so thank you!

[@FoamSquatch]

We had one of these back in the late 90's. The back brakes never really worked, but it was an absolute blast to ride. We were all Dirtbike riders and this was just a fun thing to play around on. Only quad I had more fun with was a Banshee.

[@TheHorsepowerJunkie]

I bought one the first year they came out. Beat the piss out of it and it never broke. All my friends had 125ccto 200cc 2 stroke dirt bikes and I could more than keep up with them on single track woods trails which is where this thing shines in my opinion. Unfortunately it was stolen after I had owned it for two years. Watching this makes me want to buy one to build another trails quad.

The TORS is literally the first thing most people get rid of because it often malfunctions and cuts spark when you DONT want it to. For people wantin to delete the TORS get the Motion Pro TORS eliminator kit. You can either keep the thumb throttle or get a twist throttle version. And comes with the drill bit, thread tap and idle screw. Just take ya time tapping :)

[@toast250r6]

I'm 14 and I have one of these when I bought it I barely knew shit about four wheelers, it was a mess, for example the entire rear silencer was upside down and I didn't even know Haha, Heck I didn't even know how to use the clutch correctly. But Now after owning it for 2 years I can say definitely worth it. Some thing I would recommend to anyone buying a stock one #1 Buy a FMF pipe easy to install Great power addon (don't forget to rejet your carb) #2 Air filter/Air box Lid Removal I recommend getting a K&N air filter for running off the air box and a Outerwear Cover so it doesn't get wet and suck in water. #3 Nerf Bars They help lose alot of weight and makes it easier for you to rest your feet. #5 Oil Injection delete kit, the stock blaster is oil injected and it doesn't really put the right ratio as pre mixing would not cause it harm just causing it were it would smoke a little bit more while yes premixing does take time it is 100% worth it. #6 Widening kit later down the road when you really understand your blaster get one of these, the blaster is stupidly narrow in the front and rear making it easy to tip over going on hard turns I would recommend the Diamond J customs widening kit and get the 4.5+ inch that is wide enough were you don't need to bleed your brakes or just move the line around but if you are willing to take extra time the 6.0+ is def worth it. also don't forget to get spacers in the back to match your front wheels if you do widen your front. I Hope this helps! This is all the parts I have on my blaster FMF pipe Pro Grips Tusk Nerf Bars Diamond J Custom Widening Kit 4.5 Tusk 58mm Rear Spacer (I think its 58mm) Rear Alba Racing Grab Bar UNI Pod Air filter (Going Straight off the carb and a Outerwear on it) DynoJet Re jetted Main To 320 Oil Delete kit ASV F4 clutch lever Pro Taper Handle Bars (7/8th) (Soon) VFORCE 4 Reeds in Total i paid 1600 For my stock blaster (over paid aloooooooot for the condition) around 600-900 in Aftermarket parts and it was totally worth it. :) +2 Strokes are really easy to work on (They do also have actual oil too you need to change but that is rare and you really don't ever need to do it just helps expand its life.) -Thanks :)

Dam this really put me in my feels about when I was rippin my blaster. I didn’t realize it while I was learning with it, but this is seriously the best starters quad. I love my 04 Trx 450 and how torquey it is. But nothing compares to a 2stroke. Been debating buildin a 4mil

I'd agree, it's like they wanted the performance of a 80cc 2-stroke dirtbike in a quad... and made it reliable, with the bottom end power to match while still being light weight. It being a 6-speed makes it more sports-like. The next step up is a $1500 400ex that's already modded.
