I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.

Have a look on ebay reviews.
Here's some info on what people have had to do .
Agricultural registered quads are not supposed to be run full time on the road and road quads are supposed to be restricted to 20bhp
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

There's quite a few appearing on the roads by us now. I'm damn sure that the one that left me for dead at the traffic lights the other
evening was a bit more that 20hp judging by the fact that he must have been in 3rd by the time the front wheels came back into contact with the tarmac
again!

The guy across the road from me has one. 600cc I think. He sent it away for modding and svaing it cost around £1000 all in 
If it looks wrong it probably is wrong.

Would anyone pay £7.5k for one of these? & who would want to do 80mph on a motorway with one?
I know everyone thinks we're nuts (we are), but come on ...........................

you'd be surprised how far 20hp goes with so little weight I think. been considering trying to put my car through like that, would have to limit
engine. not worth the hassle if i need to claim in insurance though i suppose
