Quad Bikes Already

Apache quad bikes this month are getting reserved for christmas, It seems to come around earlier each year and August is early even for us to start holding machines ready for christmas.
Some info when choosing a quad bike (atv)

Quads come in lots of different sizes, shapes, and the Apache Children/Teenager range currently has power capabilities starting from 50cc's. Parents need to take account of the size of the child, their experience, age and capability. All children and teenagers under the age of 16 should ALWAYS be closely supervised by an adult at all times when operating a quad. Children should ALWAYS wear full protective clothing including a proper quad bike helmet - or approved motorcycle helmet (see Apache Quad Gear page), and protective gloves, goggles, and clothing. Safety must always come first.

Entry Level / First Quad - The standard entry level quad is the Apache RLX 100 Sport and, for more than a decade this has been the UK's most popular, most wanted, general purpose children's quad. This is a proven, quality, affordable, easy to ride all rounder with a good re-sale value.

Standard Junior Models: As an alternative to the Apache RLX 100 S, there's the Apache 100 ZX which is the standard version of the highly regarded F100 Liquid Cooled high performance/racing Quad. The ZX 100 has wider axles than the RLX 100, giving suberb stability and the added benefits of reverse gear and red metallic paintwork. The top of the range Apache F100 Liquid Cooled is for the more experienced junior or race enthusiast. The F100 S is hugely popular across the UK and Europe and is used for the more competitive/experienced junior and for racing. Indeed the F100 is regularly seen in the winners enclosure at quad race meetings at all levels across the UK and Europe. The F100 has extra wide axles and therefore gives exceptional stability when cornering - making it an ideal option for the most safety conscious parent or for the junior considered 'too adventurous'.

Junior Racing - Over the past four years, Apache Quads has become known as one of the leading junior racing brands. Apache's are proving hard to beat for performance, handling and reliability. Some juniors are racing the standard F100 Liquid Cooled quads, but others have opted for the 'Works' models. There are two options - The F50 Works and F100 Works - these are race ready quads, which come as standard with many racing parts fitted, making them outstanding value for money. Junior riders throughout the UK and Europe are now specifying Apache as their preference and many are leading their race classes on Apache.

Also Apache offers 'workshop management packages' for its junior quad range, whereby your quad can be returned to Apache's Midlands workshops and Apache's technicians can test, tune, upgrade or repair Apache. Our expert mechanics are are used to getting the very best out of an Apache.

Teenage Riders - for the larger junior, teenager or indeed any adult, take a look at the Apache RLX 50 or RLX 200 Sport. The quads here are ideal as an entry level quad for the older junior, teenager or ideal indeed for mum or dad to accompany the children on their Apache's. They are capable, sporty, reliable and affordable.

Choosing For Adults

You need to first decide what type of off road quad biking you'd like to do, and then select the most suitable from the wide choice of Apache Quads on offer. Consider such factors as how fast you wish to go, how much you wish to spend, and whether you require automatic or manual transmissions. The adult Apache Quads can all be ridden off road as well as on road (except where stated). To ride on the road, however, the quad needs to be registered and taxed and you need to make sure that you have the correct tyre set up for your intended use.

Off Road & Road Legal: Apache's range is extensive from the entry level budget RLX 50cc Road Legal and the RLX 200, but our most popular first road legal quad has to be the RLX 320 Sport Quad. BUT....if you want to spend a little more and have more cc's then the RLX 400 range has action packed 360cc engines and if you are the ultimate thrill seeker then - there is only one choice! Apache's fastest road legal quad is the RLX 450 Sport range. This is only for the more experienced rider - if speed and performance is your thing, this has to be IT!

Stunning CF Supermotos! Apache's 'CF' Supermoto versions of the RLX 320 Sport, RLX 400 Sport and RLX 450 Sport are primarily for road use as they have lowered suspension, and are supplied with road tyres, but these can be used off road too of course. The RLX 450 Supermoto is manual transmission, and the other CF Supermoto models in the range are automatic. These models offer performance and stunning good looks with their lowered suspension, outstanding specification and the black and silver carbon fibre effect paintwork. We challenge anyone who tries out the 450's not to buy one - especially the RLX 450 CF Supermoto, which is simply stunning in the looks department but also has incredible performance.

Apache's Utility and Agricultural Quads: The Apache RLX 320 Utility ATV (different to the RLX 320 Sport) is a lightweight and hardy utility quad that can be used on or off road. It's superb build quality makes it perfect for light agricultural use, equestrian, parkland, golf course, or equally at home on a country estate or in a large garden. If you'd like a little more power - then take a look at the RLX 400 Utility 2wd, which packs in some 360cc's and is an ATV to be reckoned with at a price point that is unbeatable. If you really need 4x4 - look no further than the RLX 400 4x4 for performance and value for money.

So - there's lots of choice with Apache - just browse the range and see what catches your eye. Everyone has a different requirement and budget and we hope you will find a model that will exactly meet your needs. If you need any advice or assistance, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us and we can help you select the model that's just right for you.

  1. The quad bikes are one of the amazing thing on which one should ride and start exploring new terrains. These quad bikes are very easy to use plus there are number of ATV Repairing and Servicing Manuals available. One can seek guidance from them.
