I'm taking a real strong look at the new Vinson quad. I don't know any one that has one so I'm looking for a little help. If you own one please tell me what you think about the quad. Is the quad bad about the 3 wheel spin or does it work pretty good? Good power and speed?

Thanks for your time.

Howdy, I am a new Vinson [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] owner and long time atv'er. I am more than pleased with the Vinsons [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] 4 wheel drive system and all around handling,power,speed etc. I have ridden many and owned a few and the "Vinson" [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] is a gift from above.

Hope this helps.

Hi Paul,
I have about 235 miles on mine. My understanding is that the front differential puts traction to the wheel that isn't spinning. I've never been in a situation to verify this though.

Hope this helps.

My mom and stepfather just bought a Vinson about 1 month ago now. I've had a chance to take it for a spin a few times. It drives nice, no body role at all. In the off road its powerful and has no problems keeping up to the others. With the 2 of them on the bike mom still had no problem getting 95km/h out of it. From what she tells me it could have went faster but she was running out of road. In the snow it has very good traction and is fun to play with as well (in 2wd). All of the controls are easy to get at as well.
