Hi Guys,
My name is Brett and im 26 and from Newcastle. Always had an interest in quads and im looking at getting my first one in the next few weeks. I dont know a lot about them at this stage, but ive been directed towards the 04 Yfz 450. There seems to be a few of them about and after reading a few reports on the net they seem to be a pretty powerful/reliable quad. Im planning on spending about 6k on one of these, do you think ill get a decent one for that? Apart from the obvious wear and tear are there any other thinks i need to carefully look at when buying a quad? Also, are quads generally very expensive to maintane? Im selling a 1992 twin turbo soaerer to fund my quad, so if anyone would be interested in a swap send me an email! Thanks guys, im sure youll be hearing from me!

welcome buddy..

keep an eye out on the buy and sell section and offer away, a YFZ 450 will be a great bike for you.

Great reliable bikes and much quicker than most, they handle really well otherwise all the racing guys would not ride them..

Get some money together and buy this

, it will flog the living sh!t out of any stock bike if it has 60HP, very quick bike for a banshee.

Stockton is a great place to ride.
