This Saturday, Eugene is meeting myself and a few of my riding buddies to test the prototype Jetmoto 350 Quad. It will be at Carnegie SVRA located in Livermore, Ca. This test session is open to anyone who shows up and asks to ride. I would encourage anyone who could make the trip to come out and take a ride. Then give your opinion of it to the President of the company.

That is an awesome deal. How many other manufacturers offer a chance to ride, and give input on a quad they're going to release?
Now while you're there, mention to him he needs to do this in the Dallas area too.

Jealous!! To bad NY has few decent public riding facilities, the chances of this going on here for any manufacturer are slim to none. Oh, well, it will certainly be interesting to hear feedback from the masses.

Eugene took some video of me riding last Sunday. He is planning to do a lot of video time this Saturday too. He has a sweet video camera with awesome zoom capabilities.
I forgot my camera last weekend, but have put it in my truck already for this weekend.  Ill have the wife get a pic or 2 of me riding it.

Nice! I am interested to see how close to production the overall machine actually is. Is it going to have plastic or glass during these test sessions for bodywork?

Its a prototype....its going to change from what we are riding this weekend for sure. Testing is to determine those changes. Sunday Eugene and I were discussing places to make the frame narrower, also going to be lower in the front when the battery is moved. Thats for frame #2, then it gets tested. You will get to see the progress, testing and final result here.
For the testing tank and nose piece are fiberglass. Front/rear fender are plastic.

Is is pretty sweet opportunity for sure. A very rare deal too....I cant remember the last time anyone wanted the public in on testing. I gotta admit it was cool to drive up in the wifes STS. Take my gear bag out of the trunk. Get dressed and walk up to a warmed up idling quad.
Dallas??

Correct...engine is from a 350 Warrior/Raptor. Frame/a-arms is one off. Suspension/driveline/hubs etc are from a 400 EX. Plastic is trimmed O.T.C. stuff for testing. Eugene has more/different plastic for this weekend.

What time do you plan to be there? Where specifically in the park are you going to meet, any identifying autos, flags, etc?
I'll try to get out there.

Actually, I was told about 6 months ago the 350 was coming from a JM employee, who will remain nameless.

Look on "YouTube" under member "1877Jetmoto" Six new videos of the 350 in action - Cool - !!! Looks like they were shot on approx 3/30/08. (No, I am not the author of the videos - I just happened to find them at YouTube). Anybody want to own up to being "1877Jetmoto" ??? Maybe, Mywifesquad ???
