I was just writing up an ad today for a Honda TRX250R I'm selling, and I had to come up with some words to describe it. In the process I started thinking about my Cannondale FX400. That is how I would describe my Cannon, how would the rest of you quad owners describe your quads. I'm talking to EVERYBODY who owns a quad so let the manufacturers know how you feel about their products!

I would describe riding my tecate as a RUSH...

I am going to take a serious look at Cannondale next year when I buy a new quad. The performance coming out of these new four strokes is awesome, and I am glad all the manufacturers are jumping in. What a great time to be riding.

Laughing Gas!
My C-Dale FX 400 brings a smile from ear to ear and a giggle out of me (and everyone else that has ridden it) every time the clutch is let out and the throttle is opened up. This thing RIPS!

That's funny man, your absolutely right. I can't get that big smile off my face when I'm riding it. I rode my 250R today and it just can't match the FX400 when it comes to translating the power to the rear wheels. The FX accelerates faster and is much easier for me to control.

You'll have to contact the guy I sold it to. I kept that address on the page just because it was an awesome bike. I've had about 6 different 250R's since then and the one I have now is an 86' model. The 250R can probably match the FX400 on horsepower (the R is not stock though), but it can't match the tractability of the four-stroke power. The R even has turf tammers on it. The R I'm talking about is actually on Ebay right now. Look for Super-Clean TRX250R. It's a nice quad.

Sweet looking quad man. Maier plastic, tamers and trekkers, answer bars and a pipe? If you would trade a 97 MX shee for it, I'd almost do it!

That's very tempting, I'll keep you in mind in case it doesn't sell. I'm only asking $2500 for it so I think someone will be getting a good deal.
