You probably wont find any loyalty for the off brands in this forum. They are cheap because you get what you pay for. You can't find parts or service. Also there aren't any after market parts for them either. If your friend is looking to save money, buying used would be the best route IMO. These types of bikes just don't meet the standards of quality and safety that others have achieved.

My opinion is the same. The reason the name brand companies grew to what they are today is because they are good at what they do. Most of the off brands are designed and manufactured in taiwan by companies unexperienced in ATVs. Off brands lack quality, refinement, and parts availability, and anyone would be better off buying a 5 year old name brand quad than a brand new taiwanese import.

ya, you pretty much get what you pay for most of the time.

Just like Hondanutcase said, there's a reason why their cheaper....You get what you pay for. A cheaply built quad is going to have problems and need parts. Without many resources for getting parts, I feel your friend would be money ahead to buy a quality used quad.
