This is the original beater tough man quad! My buddy had the Bayou. You could jump, roll, kick and do anything you wanted to it and it would keep going. He hit trees, me and everything else out there and it only failed us once. He was giving another buddy a lift and as were blazing through the woods he went to turn and a front tire went flying off! All the studs snaped out of it. We were about 5 miles from anything so we found the closest road and I let the guy he was giving a lift drive my 110 and I hung off his quad oppisite of the missing wheel to keep it off the ground and we flew back to his house. I forgot all about that quad. He fixed it the next week and we continued to beat it.

me and my cuz has wrecked hersn several times! the worst was when she had bald back tires and it was really muddy. and i was flooring it and we hit a bump and it went offb the ground and when we came down we spun out and did a 180 and it flipped straight backwards on us. i am so glad that we had helmates on!!!!!
u could see the body print in the mud where we hit.

.. beware of anything with a single A-Arm front suspension. :rolleyes:

my buddie has a 88 220 bayo, burnt up one motor because he ran for like a month without a muffler, he has also hit a few tree's with it, I was most impressed when he was going down a dirt road at like 35 mph and faild to make a turn resulting in him flying about 20 feet in the air and landing in a gully, he drove it right up and out, other then busting up the front fender a little he was just fine, I was pretty amazed since I'l never been to impressed with kawasaki. maybe i should buy it for $400 he want out of it.
