does anybody have the specifications on a lt230s?
thanks

 

I have scanned a page or two out o my Clymer manual, if you'd like them please PM me.

 

is it 72 inches long, 41 in wide, and 44 in tall? that seems kinda big, if those are wrong, what quad does it compare to size-wise. and will i fit on it, im 5'10" and 150 lbs.
thanks

 

Hey there...I am 5`10`` and now down to 270...lol !! my QS is a little small for me but, it runs like crazy..It sure is easy to move weight around on for slidinng around corners and jumping (just a little , I`m to old to fly)... I would change the suspension around...I got a newer rear shock w/res and a set of front shocks off a 300ex... I am going to have to raise the top mount about an inch and a half though....In my humble opinion..230 QS is still a good entry level,all areound bike...

 

yah cuz all i want is like a play bike, not a ricing firebreathing thing. i like my friends lt160, but i think that is too small. so as of now ive got my mind set on a lt230s.
thanks

 

Fun little machine. My cousin had one with a set of swampers on it, it would go through just about everything. No a slouch either, it could keep up pretty decent on the trails.

 

so i should have no problem keeping up with a lt160 and 300ex on the trails, right?

 

if anyone has a mint 230, i mean mint, i will take it off there hands for $$$.

 

After installing a dg RCM pipe and K&N air filter on my 87 lt 230, i blew the drawls off of a 94 300EX. the lt160 wont even stand a chance if your motor is still.....running, lol. I even raced a 99 warrior with a pipe, and kept with him till he hit sixth gear, which was when he started pulling away, beacause of a little higher top speed.

Machines you SHOULD be able to beat (stock of course) or at least stay with relatively easy with a 230 :
-ltz 250
-250X, 250EX, 300EX
-Mojave, lakota
-lt 160
-blaster


P.S, many of the ltz 250 specs are the same or close to the old lt230, (other than shaft drive, motor, etc)

 

does that include suspention travel, because i heard somewere that it has like 4"
