Gas GAs atv's are some of the best atv's out. Great mx quads and with the right gas gas motor can be very fast. They are expensive to buy because most of them are made for mx and you can orderthem the way you want it. They pretty much build them to the need of the rider. Or you can order them out of the box complete.

if you want to go in a straight line get it but if you want to run motorcross buy something else. they handle awfull on a mx track. they are too wide for the atva at 54 inches. my son has raced mx for 3 years and is a very good rider, he raced a gas gas twice and would not get back on it, they try to straighten themselves out in the turns. the quad wore him out in 2 laps. they are not mx ready from the dealer, tires too big, too wide, no stabilizer and bottom out on the smallest jumps. a local dealer here had 2, he let people race one at the track and most did not come back for a second ride. he had to almost give them away to get rid of them. look around do you see any at the tracks, do you see any at any national races, no. buy something else.

if its a 300 and the price is right buy it.send the shocks to mx tech-750.00 and buy a set of rebel rider upper a-arms 215.00 and all the issues are solved....youll have one of the best handeling/suspended quads period
the quads are 52" wide in the front,48" in the rear,you can buy complete a-arm sets to narrow the front also and the rear axel is ajustable
the only mods to mine is having mx tech set up the shocks,and i love it,if i rode mx i would install the upper only a-arms but for the small amount of flat track racing and indoor racing i do it works perfect and is the best handeling quad ive been on.
i plan on adding another to my list,and setting one up for just duning,then i want to see the true potential of the 300 motor

if its a 450....stay away from it...lots of issues there trying to sort out

all the gg range of atv`s now come with a 48" front end, the 52" is no longer avaiable, the castor has also been fixed and the quad does not want to straighten the wheels anymore. the 2006 model is awesome but is not released yet, i test rode it at the factory in spain, evrything is differant still coming with a 300 2t and a 450 4t. when its on the market it will turn some heads, much better than anything else out there (stock) at present but wont be released till around november.
