Should I do Motocross or Quad?

Question

Okay, Im having a little trouble deciding on my motor sport next year. I want to do Motocross or Quad. Which should I do?

I wanna do motocross becuase- The bike, Im expirenced with a Dirt Bike more than a four wheeler. I have more flexibilty then a four wheeler.

I wanna do quad becuase- the four wheeler is cheaper then the dirt bike. $6,500 for the dirtbike, and $3,500 for the four wheeler. Also, on the four wheeler, you dont fall of easier when turning a sharp turn.

Which motor sport should I do? Why?

Answer 1

No matter what anyone says, a quad is NOT a motorcycle.

Stick with the motocross, there's more action with that anyway.

Answer 2

Hurts less to crash a motorcycle - less weight to fall on you, less weight when the people you're racing run you over when you fall. It also takes a LOT less effort to muscle a bike around turns than it does a quad - watch a quad race and look at how the riders have to throw themselves from side to side to get the thing to turn. It's a pain in the *** if you're looking to race, rather than s***w around in your backyard.

Quads are good for hauling stuff, I ride one as a medic at a MX track because it's got a place for my trauma kit, but I'd never race one. As a bonus, they rip the h**l out of MX tracks and lots of places don't have a race class for them for that reason.

Answer 3

well you can race motocross with a quad , and its just as easy to fall off with one, but i enjoy riding quads more than dirtbikes because they seem more stable and the jumps feel crazy awesome!!
