I am going to buy a new quad for my 11 year old son. He has been riding for 5 years now, first 3 on an LT 80 and the last 2 on an 05 Recon. He is a very good rider for his age and can go most places I can with my 500ES, except for the mud (2 wheel drive and no ground clearance).
I want a 4 wheel drive and am wondering if I should get an 06 350ES or a 400AT (06/07). His foot get tired from shifting the manual on the floor. I don't want liquid cooled mostly for the weight and complexity or I would probably buy a Kodiak or the new 420.
The 06 350's are almost all sold out. The downside of the 350 is the full time 4 wheel drive (could add the Warn front shaft). But the power is good I think.
The 07 400AT has the 2/4 wheel drive option but I am concerned about the power.
Any opinions out there would be appreciated.
