My mate had a Road legal Raptor a few years ago (was on a Q plate) LOTS of fun

Take you time and get used to cornering with them first as they can be a bit of a handfull

You will soon be drifting it everywhere

They're ace! Someone I know is very good at riding it on it's 2 sidewheels

Cornering does take a bit of getting used to but it's sooooooo much fun!!!

I'd like one as well but they're a bit dear over here...

is it taxed as PLG or agricultural you can get into lots of bother if its the latter and ifyou ain't a farmer, you can't legally insure it or even if you are a farmer it needs some sortof roll over protection amber flasing light and you need tostay within 15miles of your "farm" proper dodgy

far better PLG

Good luck with it mate you will enjoy it. I have a Banshee which is not road legal but on any tar surface it is well dangerous. I do not have time for it any more and have ben trying to sell it for a few weeks.

Have fun.
