you can't realy compare them anymore images/smilies/blush.gif

can't wait till paperwork is done and i can go rip the streets images/smilies/vampire.gif

although it's twitchy aggressive thing, and i don't have any experience yet, so in the beginning it'll have to keep it calm, especially since the engine just got a revision with new pistons, and they need to be driven in

I don't see the point of them either.

Anyway, have fun with it and give us some reports about what it's like driving one!

Are those street-legal where you live?

i always prefer 4 wheels to 2, so i think this is badass images/smilies/lol.gif

is it designed for off-road or on-road, cos that big grille at the front would swallow about 10 gallons of muddy water.

Why is it in your living room, or elsewise; why do you live in a garage? images/smilies/lol.gif

Love it, but are these things designed to kill you within the hour, as stated by JC in the outdoor stuff roundup? images/smilies/tongue.gif

Scweet.

How much did you pay for it? If you don't mind me asking.

chaos386 · February 24th, 2007, 07:11 PM

Am I the only one who thought bone was the proud new owner of one of these babies?

Lucky you, quad biking is so fun but be careful a mate of mine crashed one into the back of a Land Rover a few years ago and the result wasn't nice for the poor quad.

land rovers are the last thing you want to crash into, trees are better, or mud, mud is good. getting out is harder though....
