Depends on what you want to do with it .. Stoney has one I can give you his Number and TRX700 on here has one and wants to do Condo and Australian Sarfari with it ... He is fast learning hondas break too. lol . What I have seen personally on that quad . It is built to light for a heavy machine. But hey Joe byrd did the Triple no problems on stoneys.

| the only thing i can fault with the 700 is the lack of turning ability but that can be improved with a torsion bar and different tires. |

Bit narrow minded to say they arnt any good, it depends what you want one for. I wouldnt want one for mx but if you want a long distance comfortable bike or a trail quad they are awsome. |

It is what he said for a race bike they are no good.
Not narrow minded just read wrong by yourself |

Yep.....you beat him hands down; narrow minded and stupid.
Of course they are a good race bike it just depends on what kind of race. They both suck for MX and I would rather a XX for long distance & reliability. |

Yes Brad. You've nailed it. The sideline commentary is often better fought than the racing...
