Sweet looking quad but I would rather have my raptor. Hey look the shocks are upside down like some raptors had it.

That's one bad *** quad!
It wouldn't look so bad with a different front bumper. That grey and black looks sweet.
I wanna see one in action.

Nice looking machine but to my untrained eye a few things don't look quite right:

Engine compartment looks too crowded.

Radiator is just begging for a rock or stick to put a hole in it, looks like there's no shielding.

The grab bar looks poorly mounted. 2 bolts that close together can't possibly be very strong.

The A-arm mounts are too far apart; this will cause bump-steer.

The skid plates for the rear brake and sprocket don't look too effective.

It's hand-made... And it shows

I know it's not supposed to matter, but...
OH-MY-GOD THAT THING IS FUGLY.
I loved the first fender style they had. Honda probably told them to get rid of it though, or they didn't want to copycat.

All that really matters is how it performs, and I cannot wait to see one in person!

VOR has absolutely got to get off thier butts and get thier quad out, soon. (and it better d/\m well look like the prototype) Remember a few years ago when the ATV rags would have an article every month about the most awesome quad ever coming out, and it never showed?... Well, here they come! Please don't let this be another pipe dream.
