i was just wondering how the bayou 220 performs offroad? how fast is it? ride quality? and things like that and how reliable they are. any info will be helpful. thank you

 

someone say something PLEASE

 

Compared to the newer quads in its class, the 220 kind of sucks. Its rides ok, but the suspension doesn't handle fast trail rides to well, it gets pretty choppy at times, which is also do to its small size. The engine works really well for the wheeler and what its ment for, its fun and peppy. The machine fits in good with light work and trail riding. Its been a really reliable machine for me, and mine is 11 years old. Its a great bike, but its getting out dated.

 

The ride isn't all that hot but you get what you pay for. I'd be willing to pay a little extra for double a-arms up front and that alone would be enough for me. Still, it is a very good wheeler for trail and light utility usage and you can benefit from its small size. You can really slip between the trees at a pretty good clip on those tight trails. It's motor is pretty peppy and with just the addition of a pipe, it can really open up. Ours has a Cobra exhaust that works well but is a little louder than stock. It has a decent top-end in and around the 45 m.p.h. range though I wouldn't buy it for any racing purposes. As far as reliability, it is the toughest thing on four wheels; Honda must make them for Kawasaki or something. It has had a ROUGH life and just keeps on rollin'. If I were to go buy a wheeler in that class, I would buy either it or a Recon.

 

I just purchased one for my wife two weeks ago and she has no problem staying with me.
She is only 5' & 113lbs. so that probably helps also.
Anyway, at $2999. I thought it was a great deal.
