I'm in the city living vicarioulsy through your content cause it reminds me how I prefer to live. Island pond looks a lot like small town British Columbia. I love the older repairs and the loop. Your stuff is so addictive, I love it! Cheers Rock!
My dad has an 85 Moto 4 200 that he’s had for 30 years or so. I have lots of great memories of him driving me around on it as a kid and learning how to drive it myself as I got older. The newer big bore ATV’s are nice but these old little Moto 4’s definitely have there place.
Love those Moto4 200's. Had one since I was 13 or 14. It's been the only machine of mine that consistently runs. My dad welded up a trailer hitch for mine that also has a 3/4" hole so you can pull a yard cart or put in a ball hitch too. That little thing towed many trees, trailer loads of yard debris, and even a car once. Also of course the daily rider that has done many wheelies, jumps, and miles riding on one side lol. It's been sitting for 7 years and it fired right up with a carb clean, but a timing chain guide finally decided to let go. Waiting on parts and can't wait to ride that thing again soon!
I've owned quite a few big bore twin cylinder 4x4s the last ten or so years, and I'm kind of at a point where I miss the smaller, lighter manual shift machines. They may not have the top speed but they are more nimble and lighter, not so much bulk in the trails.
@RobL. Same here, I’ve owned quite a few big atvs and still have some… But these smaller machines are just fun and easy to get places and you don’t care if they get scratched up as much…
@@rockspowersports I recently rode a King Quad 400 manual shift model. Between shifting gears and the solid rear axle it was a blast. Didn't ride as nice as an IRS model but I almost think it was more fun than an IRS.
@RobL. I’ve never tried one of those but I bet it was a blast with the foot shift, and those machines are pretty small body wise so that adds to the fun factor.
Same here, the smaller bore manual shift machines are a lot of fun and dead reliable and easy to maintain. Just something about them that is a lot of fun. Most of them don't sit as tall as the larger machines either and they feel a lot better in off camber stuff since they aren't so tall and heavy. Shifting gears just makes things more fun too lol
@@CumminsDriver 100 percent agree man, plus with the solid rear axle, sliding on the berms and turns on the trail is another level of fun. Not telling guys to go sell their Outlander 1000 for a King Quad 400 lol or anything like that, but the truth is you don't need to spend 12k on a quad to have fun trail riding. Tired of the prices on these off road toys.
You should really invest in a shop of some sort. I hate to see those wheelers sit outside like that. And it will give you a place to work on them. Great video
From my experience, it's hard to understand the need for an ATV over 250cc except for top speed...these quads have the grunt to get the work done and last for decades.

@AMF96 Definitely nice little wheelers.

I found a used one, do you recommend buying it to have fun in the countryside?
I have an 87 moto4 200 i still use today. It works great for small stuff around the house

that old skool 2vintage music in the background was a nice touch lol
1 got the same moto 4 but mine as a rear rack and its a 1986 225cc. Stil work like a charm.
@Jewn Turpin Tough little machines, still a lot of them running today after 35+ years of abuse.
Love mine, good video.

@Ride and Fun I do have a small shop but I have way to many machines to store them…

@John’s Cribb Your right about that, I honestly didn’t know how it would do pulling but it did great and could of done more if I wanted it to.

Hello I have a Moto 4 and need help?
These things were hysterical my dad bought one of these for my mom with no suspension,it wasn't a good situation 😂😂😂
@You are right
I’ve had a moto 4 in the past that had no suspension it was rough… this one might now have a lot but it is fully suspended.
