Please don't buy one!

They are so unreliable to the point of being dangerous.  Stories of axles breaking sending wheels flying are not uncommon.

Check out this thread on Quad Heaven.

If you really want a quad, the cheapest you should be considering is an Apache/Quadzilla.

i used to bring similar over , they are good toys but if you break it, and you will!, getting parts is virtually imposible.
a lot of them tell you they can get them, or just get honda etc, equivalents, but !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I looked into having a decent one to go work on but the insurance was scary and the restrictions was daft :?  :? oh and the bloke who sells them is a swindling dodgy chuffing numpty!! :twisted:

My mate has a traditional Motor bike shop
He is in to walking and goes out every Boxing day.
Comes home every time to a full answer machine, and phone still ringing at 8pm.
All cheap imported bikes that wont work out of the box or have lasted half a day.
You do get what you pay for.
They all give you "yes will stock all the bits"
Bit like cheap winches really.
Well john I bet you are glad you asked  before you bought it :lol:
Remember it will come in handy even if you never use it
