Why not go for a Predator? Nice quads, and it should be just as powerful as the 440ex. You should beable to find a used one for cheap. I know around here a 2004 will go for about $3500.

Thats why i thought a 440 kit would be good for her. She already rides my bike and loves the power of it but she doesnt like the ride of it because it bumpy. Thats why i thought a 400cc bike would be good because they tend to have decent suspension and they're light. She could actually move it if it got stuck. I'm now very positive i'm going twoards the suzuki ltz400 because its liquid cooled and its DOHC with reverse. It makes around 29HP stock and i was looking at ct sonic there pipe makes 37HP Jetted and with an open air box. Where the 400ex only makes like 27.9 With the same mods. She can hang with us better with the Z i Think. I would just get her another Raptor but she thinks its ugly also the same with the Predator. She's so Picky on looks and i dont get it. The DS650 doesnt sound that good either. Its 500lbs no reverse Harder to turn and handle and manover. If it gets stuck she's screwed untill we help her. I just dont think that big of abike is for Her just yet anyways. She just liked the way it looked and then she wanted it. I think the Z will be fine for her for now and a while anyways.

the newer DS's have reverse.
there fast and ride nice, but again there big as big as a KFX or a scrambler and can be handful in tight trails you get used to it quick after a close tree encounter or too.
the 400ex's are as reliable as they come but the Z is faster.
