It is a Gas Gas 300cc two stroke. Wow that thing looks sweet. The pics on the internet do not give it justice.

It is a new bike that is for sale. I saw it and asked a thousand questions about it. I saw it Dirt Wheels a while ago and also found info about it on the internet. The bike retail for $7699 and the dealer that was there at the race was trying to sell the bike for $6400.

is it ok for me to have a piss hardon? a new 2stroke quad thats not a polaris or banshee, not that i don't like shee's. but i bet that gas gas handles really well and could be competitive MX or GNCC bike for sure, also TT no doubt. hmm i wonder if it would be a good play bike? =P maybe i'll get one of those instead of a shee when i pay off the EX =P

I think that thing is UGLY. The plastic has weird shapes in it. The Seat has no bend to it almost. It has to be uncomforatble. But i geuss I will have to wait until I get to sit on one.

I bet they have some major power tho.

..I am considering selling one of my R's..& watchin this thing very closely..
btw,In "ATVsports" the said in spain they are street legal......

Do you base every quad you buy on looks?
This quad has SERIOUS potential!

A guy on atvconnection forums has one. His name on there is lt250r91. I think he said that his turn signals arent connected but they are on there.

Wonder what those extra bars on the a-arms are? Extra supports i guess. U see the ones that go up to the shock mount? Very interesting bike

Dirt Wheels tried the GasGas quad out near my house when it was in the magazine (several years ago), however, I wasn't lucky enough to get an invite to see it. As I understood it, GasGas decided not to build it... I wonder if the recent sales in the the Cannondales and Raptors got them going again? I know a friend of mine who still rides an R will be very interested! Overall, it looks pretty good... If I can get used to Cannondale plastic, I can get used to anything! :D

I personally tell you that this thing is real and with way it performs is unreal! The power on it is so smooth and strong. A buddy of mine has one and he claims that it stronger each day he rides it. I was wooping up on him at the dunes a couple weeks ago but yesterday we went head to head in a bean field and this thing kick my arse.
I am just amased how it handles. I can't wait to see the 4 stroke verison. His dealer claims that he is getting one in by Christmas.
The only thing I don't like about it is the twist throttle.
