My dad's toy, buggy
« on: 25-Dec-2007, 14:40:43 »
Made by Kinroad, some chinese company. The childrens diseases aside it's a load of fun!
And actually not that expensive, €5500. And it's insured as a motorcycle because of the weight...

650cc 4stroke watercooled
+/- 25bhp, 44nm
topspeed of about 90km/h
RWD, without a dif! Big fun :D
4 discs
4spd manual
just under 400kg's
4 point harnas
Winch








After some playing







I've allready been dirty in that thing! Riding offroad is great in it, little dirt tracks and mud are the best. You just have to watch out you don't make a 180 turn :D

Drugs, dirty dancing and pounding techno music!

So cool that you can have those on the road there! Would be hilarious commuting to work in that.

Looks like a LOT of fun. I've been in my mates off road racing range rover up the side of near verticle hills, which i bet is exactly what you do in this, and its epic fun.

Top toy.

LOL, I could come with the 126, which tops out at 100+ km/h but which normal cruising speed is more like 80 :D
