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.

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

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

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.

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

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.
