yamaha blaster? quick or not.

ok, I have been wanting a quad for a long time and am moving out to the woods with millions of trails right next door so I figure I might as well get one now. I noticed that blasters are fairly cheap. and a 200cc 2 stroke/6 speed sounds like it wouold make for lts of fun. but I know a person with a kdx80 and another with a kx80. the kdx80 is slow as anything, but the kx80 hauls for a 80. both are 2 stroke and they are way different form each other.

I was wondering if anyone has ridden a new yamaha blaster and if it is quick at all, whats the top speed like. my uncle has a couple new 250EX's (02 and 03) and they are pretty quick from a stop, and fast enough for me when ripping through trails, but whenever I get in the open on a dune or down the beach it just isnt fast enough for me.

I have ridden 300EX's, 250EX's, those are the only quads ive ridden that are worth anything. doeds the blaster compare to either at all in terms of acceleration or top speed?

I really want a banshee or a raptor but I also am planning on getting an R6 this spring so I gotta save some of the cash.
