Always fancied having a road legal quad for a bit of fun! Does anyone on here have one? Are they expensive to insure?

Needs quite a lot of mods if you want the tool to be appropriate for the road...

Here is my Canam 650 Bombardier, registered in France (which is quite a difficult step with french regulations), and supposed to be limited in BHP and speed...

On the motorway in Germany, the tool is touching 100 mph with some extra left... if you have the wish to push!

Basically, the height is 5 inches lower than standard, with schocks changed on the front and on the back, anti-roll bar on the front, and quite a lot of other changes.

The quad is real fun on a track, as of course there is no differential on the transmission, and the only way to turn is to slide!!

A very good learning tool that completed road motorbike and country motorbike for years before turning to 4 wheels...

 

 

Just found these on ebay...... I like the look, but no idea what they are like build quality.....lol

I'm afraid this is typical "tuning" for customers attraction that hides a Chineese quality both for the mechanical components and the engine...

We have hundreds of bad experiences regarding the reliability on those, and very often, no parts avaliable a few months after warranty is over!

As always, please inform yourself on the market/users experience for a model, and you will have a better view on what is appropriate for you.
