Want one!

What licence do i require? Whats the score with MOT etc? Same as a motorcycle or car? IIRC there never used to be an MOT available for them, hence any bike older than 3 years were used as off road only?

Anyone got one? Pics/Vids?

Depends, if they are registered as agricultural vehicles then no need for an MOT.

Need Insurance though and a normal car licence. Tax is cheap too.

Yee, 'between farms'.

My friend has his agri registered and drove around, never got stopped. But as we live in Cornwall every road is between farms

He now has a YFZ 450 quad, not road legal but an animal.

I drive a Honda Big Red at the farm. It doesn't have number plates but still use it on the road. This is out in the sticks though so no one cares.

Won't be the kind of quad you are after mind

YZF 450 QUAD

Or is the quad the YFZ? I get confused. Either way I meant the quad.
