If its in decent shape I would say hell yea it is. Way more power and its a classic quad.

depends on how nice the quadracer is and what year, got any pictures?

if its rough i would say no

if it is clean, and all there should be a great deal, if you like to ride hard and fast. wouldn't do it for a 85-86 thou

okay called him today and its was gone through by the local moto shop, and has a 310 kit lol.... just needs a seat cover. the reason for him wanting to trade is that he got this bike for his girl friend:D

I would be cautious of anyone saying they are running a "310 kit" considering no one makes them and it would be a completely custom job that only someone with a ton of LT knowledge can do. Ask him to tell you what the bore and stroke is... and who did the "kit".

trinity racingtold me they can go 295 on resleeve to stay reliable anything bigger is a possible tickin time bomb but for my 87 they can go over 300 not sure of 85-86 though
