How many miles do you think you can get out of a quad before it is expired.

Thanks.

 

My friends 2002 Rubicon has 6000+ miles. Shows up ready work every day. Lot of the logers and gas well drillers around here have several thousand miles on there 450 and 500 Honda's.

 

You can get alot of miles if you maintain it... If you change the oil and do the regular maintanace thing
then you'll get alot of miles outta your quad

 

I had 6,000 on a 450es and now have 2,300 on a rubi all trouble free!

 

i would estimate around 8,000 miles before you start to have engine troubles

 

In DW May 2001, there was an article about a trip to Bolivia. The owner of a Foreman claimed to have 30,000 miles on it.

 

ALWAYS change your oil, if you dont, your quad will end up like mine was when i bought it (worn cylinder, worn cam, rod knock, worn bearings, clogged oil filter, 2nd gear blown, etc...)

 

i dont really know mile wise,,,

but I have friends who still use old early 80 something quads and trikes on the farm everyday ,,,,as an implament (maintained on a farm budget)

I love to see old baloon tire no suspension bikes still in service

they were so simple back then

 

My neighbor has a 1983 Suzuki LT125 that he bought new back in 1983. He still rides it up on the mountains. The LT125 does look odd with the balloon tires and no suspension. I shouldn't write no suspension because the tires were the suspension and still are in his case. He looks kinda funny on it.
