whippet 99 2,613 Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 the best thing with metal boxes is when you roll them they take a lot of the weight ,...........the wooden ones just crumple......... Quote Link to post

gonetoearth 5,144 Posted October 12, 2013 Report Share Posted October 12, 2013 Serious though any one putting boxes on their quad should seriously consider. The ground they are travelling on And loads they are carrying spread the load adding weight to the back Can alter the steering putting boxes on the front can impair you view it a balancing act. And it not until you tip or roll your bike you will realise Then it mite be to late Consider it carefully believe me i found out the hard way lol Quote Link to post
