More info?
Like what are you after?
Plenty of Australian Importers and Imposters.
I'd suggest buying local and face to face if you can.
The credibilty of spares available is important.
No fun being parked up for something as simple as filters and brake pads.

Maybe i would suggest to wait a little while to see how your mate's quad handles the use and abuse , then maybe get one , aeon are a good quad for an import , and there are plenty of others like the Cf Moto , , just be sure about it before you part with your money , and if you can see them hands on in real life before u buy, there is nothing wrong with ebay just beware of some scammers
Im sure any person on here would be happy to look at a second hand quad if it is in there area , just ask

I would work out what kind of riding you would like to do ,where you ride ,ie rough terrain,rock,sand ect and match the two together. if you buy a cheap quad just to start with and you want to blast all over the place and then add rough terrain to the mix you maybe end up being parked. There are plenty of secondhand quads on the market older type that are tougher than old boots (yamaha big bear 350) for example.
We are all willing to help if you locate something you want someone to look at.
remember match the bike with what you want to do and what terrain you have dont buy something because someone else has the same thing because they may want it for a different reason.
hope this helps

Hey Azza, thanks, but I already purchased my bike from eBay store Dreamrider where my mate bought his from.
It's great!!! they were super quick too, and excellent after service care. If you have any questions they get back to you straight away.
I'd definately buy from them again... |
