Quad Bike

[BillyMako]

Hey,

On Jan 1st I am going on a fishing trip to the far west coast at Yalata.

For the 10 days i'm going to need a quad bike for the beach.

Is there anyone on here that knows where I can hire one for a good price or even borrow one of someone for some cash.

Please PM me!

thanks

You will find rental on these type of things is huge, reason being its easy to abuse them. I looked into a jet ski a while ago when on a house boat.

epsesh. taking it on the beach... salt water and sand+motos = alot of maintanance required shortly after.

i have 2 quads but im not real keen on you taking them down the beach.

there both racing quads anyway so not ideal for what you require.

what you really need is a old farm quad like a timberwolf or trx etc that has racks for your esky and tackle box etc.

often find them cheap on ebay.

failing that theres lots of cheap chinese quads around at the moment.

just get a 2nd hand one thats still running and use that for the trip.

im thinking around the $300 mark should get you something half useful, and then just sell it as soon as you get back before it rusts.

also take a heap of crc with you and go to town on the quad before you ride on the beach the first time.

If i could find one under $700 in sa i'd get in in 2 seconds

are you going with someone else that has a quad?

if so a small trailer maybe an option.

you can get them about 1m square, they weigh stuff all so easy to tow and you can sit in that.

mount a swivel chair in the middle and you can back it up to the surf and fish away.
