Hi pro, how have you been. I saw one currently on e-bay. I have read a few reviews and tests on the big honda and they all seem positive except for their weight!!! Still not as good as raptor. You'll have to come to manar on one of the qqra weekends; heaps of fun and a great bunch of people. We're going to rover park at tenterfield in a couple of weeks with qqra to try it out. Also thinking about a stockton trip later in the year.Anyway catch up with you soon.thanks scotty.

Hi Scotty , yes the one on ebay is the one im looking at , the guy wants stupid money for it and also has a renegade he is trying tos ell for more than new price ............
I have read little info on the Honbda 700 , but they look okay in principal...I would imagine they are better for Manor etc than a rappy 700 , just becuase of the rocks etc ... .
Yes will try and catch up again soon , just bought a new house so heaps to do around the place...

Hey mate, my dad has one have put a few hours on it from what i can tell so far, great bike, not the best in turning although a sonic rear sway bar helps alot. not a great deal of choice in rear rims or tires but more companies are manufacturing for the 700xx now. Maxxis make the razr's for the rears and fronts are normal size so can get razr2's. http://www.ozatv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7302&highlight=700xx
ITP and OMF make rims for the 700xx ITP 10inch rims so you can use normal size tires and OMF 11 inch (same as stock) beadlock rims.Also you get over the ugly looks  , looks better with an aftermarket
I believe the quad really wakes up with pipe controller and filter.
As usual with honda the build quality is excellent.
Bike is quite heavy but dont forget honda measure wet weight and also comparing a bike that has a 700 efi motor and also irs, which adds to the weight, so overall its not that heavy for what it is.
bumper and can easily remove the front outer plastic.
check out for more info

Just my opinion. Froggy |
