lkraus Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 (edited) Looks like fun. Really needs ABS, lots of skidding wheels in the braking demos. Quadro4 Specs Engine – 346cc single-cylinder, 4-stroke, 4-valve Bore/Stroke – 82 X 65.5mm Max Power – 30 hp @7500 rpm; 18 lb-ft @ 5000 rpm Cooling – Liquid Timing – SOHC, single overhead cam – silenced chain Fuel – Electronic injection Lubrication – Trochoid pump, wet-sump Starting – Electronic Clutch – Automatic dry centrifugal Primary Drive – Automatic CVT with integrated differential Final Drive – Dual drive timing belt Homologation – Euro2 L5e Chassis Frame – Steel tubes Suspension Front – HTS (oleo-pneumatic tilting suspension) (One or two sticks of margarine per wheel?) Suspension Rear – HTS (ole-pneumatic tilting suspension) Braking system – Hydraulic, four 240mm discs integral braking with left lever and pedal, front wheels braking with right lever Rims Front and Rear – 2.75 x 14” Tires Front and Rear – 110/80 x 14” Dimensions Height – 52.75 in. Length – 85.83 in. Seat Height – 30.32 in. Steering Angle – 19-degrees Tilting Angle – 45-degrees Dry Weight – 566 pounds Fuel Tank – 3.96 gal. Seems a little heavy for the engine size. RT weight with a quarter of the HP. Still, it might work for my balance-challenged wife. Edited January 16, 2018 by lkraus Link to comment

roadscholar Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Needs less plastic, more suspension, and knobbies. Link to comment
szurszewski Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 At 0:16 in the video, does the guy ride off, realize he's forgotten his lady friend and then circle back for her? Link to comment

Bill, they may have had you in mind with this vid Ad, Pat It's a start, and interesting but I noticed they cut out the landing after it got some air, probably because the suspension bottomed and the results didn't make very good ad copy. I'm holding out for the Black Bear edition. Edited January 17, 2018 by roadscholar Link to comment
TEWKS Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I'm holding out for the Black Bear edition. Window dressing more than not but, it seems like they have an eye on the PS...Mr. Poskitt has posted a couple more vids after a day's absence. Thinking crash but thought I heard it was just satellite issues. Pat Link to comment

Bill_Walker Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 What does this do that a Piaggio MP3 doesn't? Link to comment
roadscholar Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I don't know but what it doesn't do is infringe on their patent or look quite as goofy : ) Link to comment
Indy Dave Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Always liked this photo of the MP3 Link to comment
Sonor Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Apparently it is a liquid cooled 350. I suspect not so good for long distance or high speed. http://www.quadrovehicles.com/vehicles/quadro-4/ Link to comment
