ok I stumbled over this 92 quadracer and picked it up. At first, I was used to 4 strokes and kept this thing in the low rmp range and I was like wtf :huh why does everyone think these things are fast? Then I just got bored with it and let it set, losing interest and motivation in it. After that, my friend suggested I take it to the redline, and boy it was a whole new world. It literally felt like nitrous when it hit the powerband.

Anyway to my point, this quad wont get off the ground unless you have a steep jump. None whatsoever over logs. When it does touchdown, it is like it has unlimited suspension travel though. It is also about 4 inches wider than a 400ex, and that makes it a serious pain in the woods.

so, what I'm wondering is does the honda r act the same way? I thought about getting one to cure these probs.

Well, I do know that the R with stock arms is about as wide as a 400EX. That's an easy answer.

As for getting the quad off the ground, that really has a lot to do with your technique. I've never tried to jump an LT250 over logs, so I can't really add much insight there. I do know that I have never had a problem with a wheelie or jumping my 250r, and I have an 86 with the longer swingarm.

The wider wheelbase in the woods and tight sections is an obvious problem that you can feel within minutes. Getting the quad off the ground is a little different matter, it can be a very different technique than a 4-stroke. I suggest you get some more seat time on the LT250 before you give up on that aspect.
