Hi guys
I am looking at buying a quad i will add a list below of what it will be used for
1.Towing a trailer collecting wood on a mates property. The property is very steep and slippery in places
2. At work where it is very open so will be doing a bit of speed work as well (60+ kph)
3. Will go to stockton for a look around every now and then
4. General fooling around on various other properties most also very steep
5.Some hunting evetually
6. Towing a toro blower around that weighs i am guessing 400kilos
7. most of teh riding will be in open areas
I am tossing up between a New 08 660 girzzly(yes there are a few new ones around) and a new 09 550 fa or fap
The price difference is about 1000 between the 550 fa and the 660 and about 2k between the 550fap and the 660.
I am i big fella also (115 kilos) and often have my boy sitting in front of me when collecting wood ect on the farm.
Any help would be appreciated |

Grizz
The machine is a machine absoulutely loving it. It just clicked over 10 hours today so i give it an oil and filter change as i am heading off for a week down the farm (Taralga NSW) doing a bit of shooting and fun with my boy.
I will make sure i get a few photos while i am down there and post them up. |
