  |
|
i have some land on a friends cane farm where i can put a ramp and a landing that we can use, just wondering how wide the ramp should be for a quad. ideas on width for a 50inch wide quad would be great, atm i am lookin at about 2.4m wide as it is the width of 2 standard sheets of metal, does anyone think that is too wide? your input is appreciated

At 2.4 you'll be able to jump two skock width quads side by side.
only joking 
I have a sketchy overpass made out of 1200 wide brick pallets. That's way too narrow.
But I would think 1800 wide would be ample.
That way you could join the 3 off-cuts to make every 4th pannel.

I like to keep both wheels firmly on the ground,,, But would be allowing enough width for at least 2 foot either side( even more if in loose ground) Too late if you mess up just before the ramp and have no room for error.

2.2 ey, bit of an odd size
ozzy450, what dimensions are your ramp, so far i have
radius= 9.1m
length= bout 6m
hight= 2.5m
pretty much the same as an aussie comp ramp
what do you reckon?

my ramp is radius is 8
length is 5
hight is 2
it isnt big but good fun. i want to make i bolt on extenshion to make it i bit bigger in a few months. the reason it is 2.2 wide is that i picked up some cheep sheet steel that was cut for something els and then they didnt want it.
