Casper Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I'm thinking about picking up an ATV this week. Anybody on here ride? I know a bunch of you all go to Wayne a lot, but usually on dirt bikes. Anybody go on quads? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putty Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I'm thinking of picking up a Suzuki KingQuad.A quad like that will beat the living piss outta you at Wayne or Perry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flounder Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 A quad like that will beat the living piss outta you at Wayne or Perry.Hell, At perry, there will be allot of places you wont be able to go due to its size. Or course Perry, isnt exactly quad friendly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zerocrash Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 Hell, At perry, there will be allot of places you wont be able to go due to its size. True, but only if you're comparing it to a bike. It's not any wider than a sport quad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flounder Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 True, but only if you're comparing it to a bike. It's not any wider than a sport quad.No but its a shit ton heavier and slower off the line which means you wont be jumping some of the little ravines and mud flows that he the faster sport quads can. Not to mention a much larger turning radius due to its length.Granted, Im talking about Perry only here and like I said, its not exactly quad friendly at that place.. Wayne is fine for quads and I have even seen some of the side by side APV’s out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's no 450R but it is a 450 fuel injected, liquid cooled motor. Yeah Perry is definitely tighter than Wayne. Perry is cool though because you don't have to stay on a designated trail. Although I tend to lost as fook everytime I'm there.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then the thunderstorm came and we were all damn near out of gas. Luckily we found some other guys that were headed back and followed them. Even they got turned around a few times.

Although I tend to lost as fook everytime I'm there..Never the less, the suspension on that quad isn't setup for fast rough terrain w/ jumps and such. A friend used to ride a Honda Rancher quad with us there and he'd be getting his ass kicked left and right. Bought a 400ex...whole new smoother ride.I guess it's all in what you want the quad for. If it's for occasional rides at Wayne/Perry or other woods...I would not get a utility quad. Sport quad all the way....Doesn't have to be the new bad ass 450s/525s, but along those lines.

I know a few people here locally with land and we ride utility atvs there all the time. Plus I'm looking to get a snow plow for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you eventually get into the trails and more technical what I would consider fun stuff then you may want a sport quad but until then, there is something to be said about a quad with a plow and winch. Why do you want a plow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exSRAaron Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 Rancher 4x4 or Kingquad are both pretty nice..I rode a rancher4 pretty hard and i thought it was really fun. Of course its no sport quad, but nonetheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrincessPratt Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I'm thinking of picking up a Suzuki KingQuad.Like I told u on Sunday.....IF you buy one I'll buy one.

Wayne is fine for quads and I have even seen some of the side by side APV’s out there.There was a Polaris Razor at Haspin the last time I camped that was ripping! I bet he was running 45-50mph. It was pretty tricked out. I would say he could have went anywhere I did on my 400ex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
