Thread: Farm bike vs quad

People who ride quads a lot take for granted that their responses are instinctive. Two front wheels and handle bars, lots of power and traction, a short wheelbase and a high center of gravity. An inexperienced rider needs to do sweet FA to end up underneath one.

I did not recommend my 400 for a hunting bike. I have a Honda 250 with a rack.

Also interesting to point out that most of the people that end up being killed by quads are actually experienced users.

Experience won't save you if you let yourself get distracted or frustrated.
