Kinda cool:devil:

[Punk'd]

No way! Its just not the same without the VROOM VROOM! Can you picture yourself riding a quad with no sound like that:confused: idk its weird to me lol

[bignorm]

i think it would be cool if they made a diesel sport quad imagine the torque but on the down sie they rev to like three grand so yeah


just a thought

josh

[lol]

i dnt no what to think of it...

[lil400exman]

it looks sort of underpowered! and think the length of the run times wouldnt be good while keeping the weight down :rolleyes:

[blondie69]

The thing about electric motor's is they don't have as much horsepower. Not as great of a pull back motion when ya rev them up. I dunno how much I would like them.
A disel one would be intersting. I've always loved the sound of a disel truck...:blah: Still wouldn't have as much of a pull back effect, but it'd work..

[YamaWarr0121]

diesel's been done by polaris, lasted quite a few years i believe

[sam the brave]

nothing will replace the internal combustion engine it will only be inproved so dont worrie about electric atvs coming any time soon

[DangerousDean]

Thats retarded...
its a mountain bike with a motor, i can do everything he did in there on my bikes though hahah

[Juggalo]

i posted these a while back...i think their freakin AWESOME! just imagine zooming by at 40mph completley silent. just think of all the fun stuff you could do. i'd love to have one of those bad boys. i guess their actually pretty powerful and stuff

[Wired]

hahaha between moto's instead of putting more gas on ya just hook an extension chord up to it... :o

[xr50layke]

because of the light weight and dirtbike form it must have great suspension, id like to have one, say if i was in new york city.

[lil400exman]

actually electric motors have alot of torque. for comparble size in motor and engine a motor really rips up. so that isnt a good comparsion but i dont think it would have the life we would be looking for unless it went with a li-poly or li-ion battery!;) also a good esc would be needed:macho

[PhilMoore]

Back in the day, Dirtwheels and such would compare a built motor to electric. They would say such bs as "the powerband is linear, almost electric-like."

Whatever..
I just felt the urge to post.:p

I would just hate to be Ctrl Alt Deleting my quad in the middle of the woods.

:huh

[Fuchs105]

Motocross Action did an article on a bike like that back in 2000 around the time of the election. They called it the "Gore Replica".

[RMX500]

electric motors are still weak in horsepower but can generate up to 4 times as much torque as a gasoline engine in practical applications.

still... a quiet quad just doesn't work for me

[massjunglist]

honestly that thing is gay. anyone who says that they like that thing, can jump in their honda insight or toyota prius, go down to their local meat market, pick up some "friends" and drive off a cliff holding hands and listening to Clay Aiken. F that.

[sleestack68]

Hey RMX500, I noticed you are in costa rica. How is the atv scene over there. The reason I'm asking is that my father moved over there to retire a few years ago and i was thikingof visitig him.

Are there places to rent quads, (not electric ones) and ride?

[KASCHAK]

kinda looks like a BMX bike because of the lack of noice... hahaha it would deff. take tiem to get used to
