Yes they look so.... great i think the word is... as i said.. in the UK press.. £2000 on the road (uk street legal)... given the money... I'd love one to buzz around on. I like the styling..not to different to the sharp style of the Baghira.

Street legal in the EU with DOT tires, turn signals etc. Pity these ATV derivatives (even lowered and wide track) in general are pretty crappy on the road from a handling point of view. Loads of fun though :lol:

Edit: Just saw that these quads are based on Chinese copies of Honda 250cc 4-strokes, churning out a whopping 17hp on paper...
Having some experience with theese Chinese engines and their specs I would say that you would be lucky to get 10hp+ on the rear wheels... of cource there are exeptions but I would not expect more than that.

you would also be lucky to get much more than 10000 miles out of that engine before it gives up

The way to go would be to use a Yamaha Raptor and make it street legal... or check out a can-am trike. Different price range though :?

Street legal Raptor, well at at least in Belgium apparently

I have one of these, 500cc 4-stroke single. A bit unwieldy but it is truly a go anywhere, anytime vehicle :-D
