What do you guys recommend for a new sport ATV...
...that is cheap?So far I think my best bet is the Blaster since they are base priced at $3299 I think.I have also heard Scramblers are good but more expensive and then some people tell me they are bad.

outa the 2 i would go with the blaster, they are quick! very light to, its nice that they have a jug for oil instead of mixed gas, its small , easy to haul, easy to get unstuck  .

blasters are nice but they're a little small to sit on. But you can bore it it out to a 285? with a trinity race kit. Very good price for such a nice machine, just really small(physically). They do go very fast though...
Try getting a used quad:cheaper, ect.
i hate scramblers, buts thats only my opinion.

Id say if i was going to buy a sport quad i would get the YFZ 450, TRX450R, Z400, or even the DVX 450. Or a banshee.
Blasters are fun little quads, but i would get bored with it VERY quickly.

If you have the $$$ I'd go with a suzuki z400. Maybe even a 400ex or a raptor also. All great quads!
