Fully road legal 300cc quad.
Brand new 07 reg which cost ?2500
Cat 1 alarm and immobiliser.

Does 40mpg but ?6 fills up the tank lol

Cheap to insure and can be ridden on a standard driving license as it has four wheels. You don't even need a helmet and pillion isnt a problem.

Nice, I'm debating a small bike for city runs. When I last had to drive across the city my ave speed was 2.75 MPH lol

Bdiiing ding ding ding! BwaaaaahP.

Cool. Though I do think people that ride em on the road are attention seekers. Probably just jealous maybe?

Will it tow a Nova?

Man they're cool. Pretty cheap for a brand new vehicle! Not that practical for city runs unless you're not afraid to ride on the pavement/central reservation/etc though I'd have thought lol

Nice :D

Quads rock! Agree with CG though, using it on the road is ASW'ing lol

Fast?

As its a 300cc I'd imagine its pretty fast. The engine looks bigger than a 1ltr nova engine. lol

He's not really ridden a bike before so is kinda going a bit careful. He did push it to 50mph but the wind constantly forces you backwards in the seat as its not all that aero dynamic (he was sitting quite upright though)

I'd imagine it'd be quite fast if you hunker down in the seat a bit.
Not sure whether it'd pull a nova or not.

I've not been out on the back yet but will do when I'm back from holiday.

Yer 300cc will feel quite quick, nothing special though ! It'd be interesting to see what it's geared to do. Most 300/400's i've been on are only good for about 40-50mph. But they've tended to be 4x4 farm veichles.

As its road legal, does that need MOT-ing after 3 years?!

Jack

LMFAO would it fit on a RR? lol

power to weight ratio would probably be something like 1,000bhp per ton


...unless I sit on it, in which case it goes down to 10bhp per ton lol

Be carefull on corners they roll easy.

Apart from that it's very nice and their are quite a few around here that are road legal.

If you don't mind me asking how much was insurance?
Would need to know,
