Olddad,
Before you buy those 150's with the reverse gear on the axle, I can post some pics of the gear that I know will give you problems, if your interested. Also you may have to pull the rear axle assembly apart to reseal all the metal to metal areas that are prone to leaking because the Chinese use cheap sealant. Also if you want I can post a pic of a seal that went bad. If you do not need to see the pics then purchase the quads from Raceway that way if you ever develop any of these problems they will take care of you.
Not only that, the quads that I found for $3297 or so are the new style quads similar to the MPX150's that you were looking at.
However, said once again, if you need to rely on dealer support, Raceway is the way to go.
Good Luck.

PS. If it were me I would just wait for the new Jetmoto's to release. I know what I have said here is not good for sales but I would rather see a potential ATV customer be happy with their purchase and not have to go through the same things I have.

All,
When we buy quads/toys, we start off with a budget and one...two and type. I can't help thinking this guys is doing what I do when I throw the dealer card at you...just getting our goat[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Smile, if he buys 4 against the warning of sm05, he'll have a lot of cannibalizations going on[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

What city are you in? I am in Dallas, and I have a decent guy here who sold me three 110 quads for a good price, and I picked them up in Dallas.
I can ask him if he wants to sell some adult size quads. I have had pretty good results from my ownership, no major problems as of yet...
anyway, if you are near enough to Dallas to pick some up, I will call him for you. I have no idea what he wants for them, I would have to ask.

What do you do when you need a new sprocket?

update, my guy local called me today and he just got a shippment in of MPX 150's. he felt bad after promising something that he thought he could not deliver so he cut me what I think is a pretty sweet deal. 3-150's for 1200 ea and a used 250 for 530 bucks. New 150's completely serviced and run-in everything gone over and he has a full service department just like a big three dealer. The used bike new plastic and new piston and rings. Will pickup three new quads tomorrow and used one friday.
Thanks everyone for your input. I thought i was in trouble this close to christmas, but he came through.
