Need help finding the right quad for me!
oxidized_black replied to Passion4thrashin's topic in General ATV Discussion
the 550 is a nice choice, the one i saw was real nice, burgandy and subtle black (old school) flames. check out kijiji for calgary. there are some beauty deals there, and or edmonton. they seem to be in much better shape and less cost than in the fort mac area. and welcome to qc the power steering factor isn't a big deal unless you put a bigger and more aggressive tire on the quad. and maybe make sure you don't get something in 4 wheel all the time, 2 to 4 select is really nice. just saying cause i have a 660 and 350. both are about the same armstrong steering... http://calgary.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-ATVs-snowmobiles-ATVs-2003-HONDA-FOREMAN-ES-W0QQAdIdZ335586377 http://calgary.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-ATVs-snowmobiles-ATVs-2000-Yamaha-Grizzly-600-W0QQAdIdZ334087603 http://calgary.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-ATVs-snowmobiles-ATVs-2007-Honda-TRX500FM-FANTASTIC-UNIT-W0QQAdIdZ333838517 http://calgary.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-ATVs-snowmobiles-ATVs-Kawasaki-Brute-Force-750-W0QQAdIdZ333191774 http://calgary.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-ATVs-snowmobiles-ATVs-Polaris-Sportsman-700-W0QQAdIdZ316630216 http://calgary.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-ATVs-snowmobiles-ATVs-2007-Canam-Outlander-650-XT-W0QQAdIdZ331819317 http://calgary.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-ATVs-snowmobiles-ATVs-2007-Kawasaki-Brute-Force-650-W0QQAdIdZ331556734 http://calgary.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-ATVs-snowmobiles-ATVs-2003-yamaha-grizzly-660cc-3650-obo-4038618320-also-taking-trades-W0QQAdIdZ330533264 don't know what your budget is so i kept these 5 and under i think ... -

ya know, i had dirt bikes, missed the trike era, then got into quads, which i think is the cat's as*. i think i have driven chris's trike 3 or 4 times, i liked the smooth ride, good maneuvuring, and plain all out fun. you sure have to ride it differently than a quad and you will find that out in a hurry. LOL you are constantly looking for that sweet spot in the mud or bush where you know a quad would get stuck, but the trike slides over no problem. it's a different game with 3 tires ... -

offer him 3 or 4. how much for parts and whats your time worth to fix it? if its in good shape, snag it. if the parts come in under 500 $ then you have a nice machine for a grand. IMO... what is gone in the motor? just top end?

where i live, i hop on the bike and go. all trails right at my back door. all you can hear in the summer months are quads and dirt bikes til the wee hours. summertime here it stays light, i mean light, to 11 at the peak, and you can still see at well at 2am. then light again at 430-500am. winters suck though, dark at 3pm LOL
