What do you guys think? It's a 2003 cannibal with all the updates and a balance/blueprinted crankshaft. I don't have a price yet but just wondered what you guys thought? It's a brand new quad from a dealer in PA.

I currently have a 400ex.

I've been thinking the same thing:(

I had a C-Dale Moto and it was the best quad I have ever ridden!!! If ya don't mind the maintenance and can do the engine work yourself or have a good dealer around you such as R&S, Quadshop or Haydug Cycles you'll be fine. I sold mine cause I had a port and polish done along with a few other extra's and when it came time to put it all back together I couldn't find a gasket kit anywhere. Now gasket kits are a dime a dozen. Boy did I screw up. But they are awesome quads just more effort than a Honda.

I was considering a dale, but I can't find one anywhere. I know the quad shop is in ky, but where in ky? At least I thought it was in ky, and if so how much could I get a good cannibal, speed or moto for?

In my personal opinion I think that ktm would have been a good providor for cannondale if they would have taken the opportunity.

if you want to argue with me why do you have me on ignore? flip burgers? sigh... , reread your post and tell me whos being a kid, control yourself, its the internet, you ruined this poor kids thread...if you havent realized it you have the same "idiotic punk *** know everything attitude" so just stop it, your making yourself look bad, there are better ways to handle things than how you do, it just shows your maturity level.

sorry about hi-jacking your thread. but it was the only one that offered good spin material to get them to start blabbering :D

oh, and about C-dales....that was the 2nd quad that ever white knuckle scared me when i rode it.

very dependable, and you really don't have to mod it much to make it a very competitive quad. the EFI rocks, but it took a little to get used to how they sound when idling. i thought it was falling apart :D

I've never heard of the mount breaking off but there were some cases on early models of the lower shock bolt breaking. They went to a bigger bolt and solved the problem. If you have an older one, a Drill bit and bigger bolt fixes the problem. ;)
