Yeah, I kinda pictured it as a great quad to go out and explore the desert with. Just put a gas can and a water jug on the racks and have a good time. It'd probably be a great one for desert racing too now that I think of it.

i still cant get past the design of it. i eish it looked a bit sportier

aarons419 12-08-2012 12:43 AM

It's a "You have to see it in person" kind of thing I think.

nosbusa 12-08-2012 05:55 AM

hm, just like the terrain.

aarons419 12-08-2012 08:13 AM

kind of I guess. My first thought on seeing it was "What the hell is that thing?!" It looks a lot tougher than any other quad in the shop.

yeah, its definitely one of those things you gotta see in person to get the overall feel of it.

pictures don't do it justice

aarons419 12-08-2012 04:02 PM

Yeah they did a good job of giving it a "presence" for lack of a better term.

nosbusa 12-11-2012 03:53 AM

it doesnt matter, its only a bit of time before it becomes scratched or damaged....

aarons419 12-13-2012 07:53 PM

I can't even imagine how much plastics for that thing would be.

SBA800 12-13-2012 08:31 PM

my guess would be $300-$400 per piece.

dont know how many pieces it is in, i imagine 4.

who knows, may not actually be very much. some parts ofr my sled i was surprised how cheap they were. and they weren't cheaply made either.

aarons419 12-14-2012 12:28 AM

That's one area where dirt bikes are great. Whole set of plastics minus the tank for ~$100

nosbusa 12-14-2012 02:26 AM

plastics on my busa....... $650 per side. $675 for the front and $700 for the rear.

SBA800 12-17-2012 04:52 PM

my sled, i think $300 per side, and the top, no idea. probably lots since it has the headlight, digital guage and all that crap

nosbusa 12-17-2012 08:02 PM

funny how you pay a premium for certain things, even though it doesnt cost more to make.........

aarons419 12-17-2012 09:28 PM

Yeah, it's the "you bought an expensive toy so you must be able to afford expensive stuff for it" tax.

I hate that crap.
