I was at the honda dealer today, spending money

[mdavidso]

I was getting parts(who'd have figured)and as I was waiting I was looking around, and saw the brand new 2009 TRX 700XX. OMG that thing looks like a beast!! IRS, 5 speed with reverse. I couldn't stop looking at it! I was only thinking, what quad can someone compare this to, I know of the raptor 700 r, but was wondering, what other big-bore- "sport-quads" there are and if its worth it to pay the extensive out-the-door price for the Honda.

It's a quad...........

 

[RM85rider123]

It weighs a quarter of a ton. 505 pounds is like riding a wrecking ball if the throttle sticks or something. It'll bring down a house.

 

[whenfoxforks-ruled]

Its a hillbilly lawn mower, or a 90 mph couch on wheels, take your pick? At what point do you give up, and just get a jeep? Then you can pull a trailer full of bikes!

Last time I was in a dealership I looked at the quads as I passed by and thought to myself "What's the point?"

 

[dirt bike dave]

"What's the point?"

To keep the dealership open! Without the profit from the quads, there might not have been a dealership there to walk through.

See, they are good for something! :laugh:

 

[motodr9]

Kwad fun

They are also good for doing donuts in the staging area lot, shirtless, while carrying a case of beer. :nener:

Thats also the curb weight(full of fluids and liquids) :cool: and maybe thats why they have such a powerful braking system. :laugh:

It's no different than dirtbike brakes.

Drunk rednecks obviously.

 

[RM85rider123]

Drunk rednecks obviously.

Or the people that lowers the suspension on them, and says it adds 5 horsepower :whoa:

Sorry mdavidso;

What these knuckle draggers are trying to tell you is that posting any quad related questions here is about as smart as walking into a cave full of starving hyenas... carrying a big juicy steak. You're just going to get bitten. :p

Not the place for quad stuff. And this is the FLAME BOARD, meant primarily for flaming. Not asking about Quads.

[whenfoxforks-ruled]

The knuckle draggers are sitting in the quads!

 

[Ol'89r]

Not even close. :laugh: And besides, it was 'Tighty wearin' homos.' :yikes: Jeeze, get it right. :nener: :moon:

 

[_JOE_]

We're in need of someone to come around and defend the quads. Then it would be fun!

 

[areaman]

I know, I posted it here to get peoples honest opinions, and I got great input, and now im having fun just reading what some people are saying.


also, no one answered my question, should I buy gthis quad or a different one?

only looking for a quad because i just crashed my dirtbike, and I'm looking to stay on all the wheels and not flying through stumps on my face.
:yikes:

 

[XRpredator]

buy a dirt bike.

 

[Rich Rohrich]

He should purchase a clue instead. ;)

 

[Patman]

Wow I never knew adding 2 more wheels and a bunch of weight make something safer. Personally I'd rather get hit with a 250# dirt bike when I'm laying on the ground than a 500# kwad. I mean if you ae that concerned about being safe off road get an Argo 8x8 to carry you around in your bubble.

 

[250girl]

Not even close. :laugh: And besides, it was 'Tighty wearin' homos.' :yikes: Jeeze, get it right. :nener: :moon:

Why do you guys always forget the "ktm riding" part of the "tighty whitey wearing homos" equation? Jeeze, get it right :nener:
