Because its an atv. Its a quad and i think you could handle any size quad. BTW my neighbor has the raptor 700 or 750 or whatever it is and its a badass quad, if its possible for a quad to be badass. jk

Lol I just hate how slow they are. You don't even feel like your in control on a 4wheeler.

I wouldn't say they are slow. If you say they're slow then you definitely haven't ridden the right ones. I just don't like them because they're too easy. Its something anyone can do, you need no skill to ride a quad.

I havent ridden the racing ones. Ive only ridden the big bulky ones like Honda Rancher and Yamaha Grizzly and stuff. But ya they are too easy. There's not much you have to do but just hold your thumb on the throttle. Especially those automatic ones.

Quads give a false sense of ability,  my son is a beginner  rider and will get cocky on a quad , It makes me ill to watch him.  That is how a neck gets broken.  Buy a bike and learn how to ride you will not look back.
