    dont buy crap

    This is my wife and her grizzly towing me and my knockoff. This was about the third time this has happened in 600km of riding.http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=gWeoR2SN750

    Was it one of them Wally-World/ Canadian Tire-style quads?
    What ever happened to quality workmanship eh? There is just so much garbage out there these days. Lucky you had your Lady to give you a tow though eh?

    I was looking into buying a couple knock off for the kids at about $400 delivered. I can afford to dispose of them, but when it comes to a hunting rig for myself, I wouldn't take the chance.

    Just remember, they don't test the metallurgy in the machines and parts thus making time bombs, if your kids are just learning and not going over 10MPH then fine otherwise I would have to say your nuts! (Figure of speech of course)
    I have heard of many ocassions of people and kids driving those things and tie rods stripping off, handle bars breaking etc.. and they weren't going fast so it's like the old saying goes, if you think your head is only worth 30.00 then buy a cheap helmut.
    Just a word of caution as I have heard of some nasty spills, be carefull.
