Does anyone have any 450r hoods that they like and look good. Do you have any pics of the hood on your quad. Interested in getting one your my quad. which one is the best? Quadtech, Feather? Has anyone heard of Dixo carbon fiber hoods? If you have, tell me there website and if it is a good product or not.

I have the Quad Tech flat hood on mine and I really like it. I dont have any pics right now of it though. Alot of the guys down at my sponsors shop have the maier regular flat hood and i think that one is the best for the price. The maier is about 50 bucks and the Quad Tech is like $165. I have heard on both the Dixo and the Feather light, that people were waiting for weeks to get there hoods, and that customer service wasnt the best. But I dont know for sure how they are now. Just my thoughts.

I got a dixo looks exactly like a quadtech with the scoop without the sticker, it did take a long time to get but, I got it on ebay for $60, so it was well worth the wait compared to $160 go with the dixo quadtech is way too expensive for a hood, unless you want to burn away $160 on a hood.

hey 250rECrider when you bought that hood off ebay, what did you put in at the search. Cant seem to find any on there. Do they have a website or is there any dealer that sells them?
