WTF?!

Is it a bike? Is it a car? What is the difference?

[Wheel Turned Out]

I want to like it purely because it's barmy, but what a daft looking thing.

IIRC a quad bike in the UK has a maximum weight of 400kg, so forget it.

Quite a few years back I was offered a quad bike powered by an LCR500 engine.

For those of you that don't know what that is I'll explain, it's a 500cc four cylinder two stroke originally based on the Yamaha TZ500 GP engine but tuned by Louis Christian Racing for sidecar use so about 130+BHP with a shed load of torque and a power delivery like a kick in the bks.

I politely declined to purchase said quad bike.

For anyone that wants launched into the air in an accident rather than be safely retrained in a seatbelt/seat!

All the disadvantages of a sportscar with all the danger of a sports bike.

And you can legally go full-on pillock and not wear a crash-helmet either.

Nope, nope, nope, nope.
