Firstly I would like to thank my sponsor Scott at ATV'S Unlimited for supplying all the parts needed for this build for free.
lOOKING FOR A JOCKEY
last time I built one of these contraptions I sat the bike out on one of the dunes at Stockton beach and waited and it wasn't long before a guy rode up and said g day.
Looked at my quad and said.
MANNNN Whats in that ?
I replied a turbo charged 1300 hayabusa ?
F=-me the man said,that must be fast.
I replied would you like to have a ride?
F-yes the man said.
So the man mounted aboard I showed him all the features and said to him now be sure to go through all the gears and don't be afraid to tap it out in 6th.
When the man returned all the blood had left his face and he could barely get his gloves off his hands where trembling that bad.
Dam I got to get me one of those, he said.
After a little chat the man got back on his quad and rode off.
I never did thank him for testing out the quad for me.
I didn't know if it was going to hold togther under that much horse power.
Guess all the welds held...lol
Pics of the new build to follow !!

I have spent the last 12 months in the dirt with about 60hp and that's more than enough.
But in the open dunes the sky is the limit if you have ridden a quad / trike with 100hp or more its hard to go back.
A bike like this in stock trim will be unreachable on long sweeping tracks in the dunes and on a speedway track EVEN with a novice rider I don't care what suspension you have 40-70 hp vs 150 to 180 hp you do the math.
Through the tight stuff its not to bad but the weight slows you down in the corners.
AT THE END OF THE DAY IT IS ONLY 30-40KGS HEAVER THAN A STOCK QUAD.
