Picked up a super cheap Quadzilla xlc 300, wasn’t running sounds like the starter motor has chewed something up as it still spins but sound like a car crash. Hopefully going to strip it down and have a look, Can already tell someone’s had ago at wiring and done a shit job 🙈

Day one: Strip down plastics off, rear plastic is trashed looks like someone crashed 🙈 wiring is shocking and the starter motor has been better days but apart from that all els seems fine but have a good look over the weekend

True, there are plenty of other offensive things out there but we do appreciate the help in keeping at least this forum clean.I fixed a few words but other than that no changes.

Like the progress of this machine so far!

The bike looks like its coming along nicely. I see you are in the uk, those quadzillas look much different than the ones I’ve seen here in the US. The ones here are butt ugly!

 

[38Fitters]

Oh wait, I see now it’s the 300 not the 500. Those 500s are horrendous lol.

 

[HyperRain]

horrendous

I’ve got a Quadzilla xlc 500 and it’s great top speed is better then a raptor if your man enough to get there. Off road is great to mine is lowered so can bottom out but never had a issue when I go 👍🏻

Not any good quad bike forums in the UK and I’m after a raptor one day, did put a deposit down mid last year on a brand new black and blue 2019 700r with all the extras but pulled out as it was my first quad and didn’t know if I would ride it much so got the xlc 500 and love it and my mate got a Dinli 450 just after riding mine 😂

Well, I stand corrected, the 500s in UK look way better than the ones here in the US too! Have you ever seen the ones I’m talking about?
Didnt mean to bash your rides buddy 🙃

They look kind of scary to me, idk. Like one of those plague doctor masks from medieval times.

It’s all good mate. Them 500 look nuts seen a few videos on them on YouTube look fun and scary. Think I’ve only ever seen one for sale in the UK

Day 3 only really finished the wheels off only a few little bits on there and sanded down the grab bar and had a think 🤔 Going Saint Black on the rims and grab bar and going to do the nerf bars and the paint is coming off and again saint black 👌🏻

 

[HyperRain]

Got the nerf bars off today going to try and get them sanded down and some point over the next few days. Try and get all the painting done in one go. Should hopefully get the new starter motor in the next few days plus looking at changing the exhaust

So I’ve been watching some vids of these, and wondering... this isn’t a Suzuki is it? This is a literal brand named Quadzilla, which has nothing to with the ‘80s behemoth by Suzuki dubbed the quadzilla?

 

[HyperRain]

Quadzilla is a brand the engine in the xlc 500 is made by subaru but as far as Suzuki goes I don’t think it has anything to do with them
