So recently after a 20 plus year if not longer of riding quads and dirt bikes my youngest son 13 years old asked me for a quad .So we found a 1986 Suzuki LT Quad runner  230 GE shaft drive got it for a good price needed some tlc New tires and used rims new spark plug new brakes not yet installed new oil and air filter oil change and tail light and head light.I got most if not all on ebay very inexpensive and the quad runs great.Been using it almost every day and of course at 52 years old im riding everyday again I live in Brooklyn NY Gerritsen beach and where we live we are lucky enough to have many trails and a  beach to ride on we actually have some very well maintained trails and tracks that have been made from when i was a kid and taken care of by neighborhood kids who ride So of course now comes the part were I want a bigger quad for myself and my son is looking for a manual clutch bike Raptor or Quad-sport so I just wanted to introduce myself and here are some pics of our 230 quadrunner Thanks all next is to tackle the back brakes witch I see the whole rear axle has to be removed to get the drum off should be fun lol

Nice machine! Other than the crack in the plastic, it looks brand new.
