Is there any thing a high preformance quad can do that a mx dirt bike can not. I'm trying to decide what to buy dirt bike or quad

 

MX bike will be quicker than a quad. I switched from dirt bike to quad, I kept getting hurt. I'm 42 and wounds don't heal as fast as they used to. One thing I like about quads is I don't have to worry about driving over pebbles, or sand, snow is a blast! The quad doesn't budge, but the dirt bike wanted to go out of control.

 

Since this is an ATV forum, what do you think we are going to tell you: get an ATV! Honestly, I would. With quads, you don't have to worry about the front wheel washing out in sand or on a rock. Quads can get through turns more easily by sliding, but dirt bikes can pull away on the straights. On TNN one time, I saw a quad vs. thunder bike (YZ400) and it was a dead tie. The quad would could get through the turns quicker but the dirt bike was faster on the straights. Jumping was pretty equal. Quads rule! Get one.

 

if you get a dirt bike get a cr500 and be careful

 

I think a dirtbike is a little safer if you are younger. Less weight , tighter turns, easier to control.

Quads rule for going slow like the older crowd does.
