    Hi all im new to the board.

    Just a quick question, my father who is a farmer has recently developed a problem with his ankle which has reduced his mobility on the farm.

    Im considering buying a quad to help him get around and i was wondering where is the best place to start looking or any recommended sellers?

    get your hands on the farmers journal from 23/05/09. There's an article on quads. They also mention utility vehicles which look to be more comfortable, and they seat 2 people

    Honda 250 is probably his best option for getting around. Avoid cheap brands like the plague.

    seem to have clean loking bikes
    have a yamaha kodiak 450 myself that I bought cheap on ebay, shipped over on pallet for 100 quid. Some machine, will go most places if you have the nerve to stay on it, the thing I like best about it though is its automatic so just put it in forward or reverse and hit the throttle, no messing with changing up or down, I know my dad needed quad to get around in his time and found changing tough so maybe something to consider.
