    I was thinking of buying a 150cc Rexton quad bike, does anyone know if they are reliable? The price is around €1100 for a manual one.

    Rextons wont take any punishment compared to any of the leading makes.a 15 yr old near me has 1 and it never ran for more than a day without problems,electrics ,brakes.Dealer fixed it a few times but then told him it was not his problem as bike was used on a farm and not suitable for that.Offered to trade it in against a much dearer 400cc farm model but no more repairs.Haggle for a Honda would be my advice to you

    No they're crap, simple as that, you get what you pay for, Hensim's are the only half decent chinese bikes and even a that there not great.

    Japanese bikes are more expensive but they are worth the money. A suzuki, honda or yamaha second hand, represents far better value than a new chinese one, and will be way more reliable

    I wouldn't buy a Lifan either. They are crap. Bought a 250cc one last year for €1200. Wouldn't recommend it at all.
