What is the wheelbase measurement and the overall length? I want to see if it'll fit on my trailer.

About 20 Min's and $2.00 worth at a car wash, 64'x107'. My new trailer is a 6x9 and does a great job! and it only cost me $645 built to my specs.

This may be a silly question but what color is it? Pink, orange or red.

great report, guys. the 300 sounds like a great machine. gonna have to talk with eric about that. :wink: :wink:
i cant relate to the mud but i can about the pulling power. i know there is a big difference in the gearing of mine and the CVT, but it sounds like the cvt on the 300 with the mods is pretty darn good. i'm gonna have to see that for myself. i'm not doubting, by no means, i just want to see it. :twisted: . so, you guys with the 300, please try to make it to the bike/buggy blowout.
64" wide, wow, that's wider than mine. i'm at 63" and 108" long. so a 6x9 trailer fits it. i was looking at a 6x10. maybe i can go smaller.
anyway, great write up.
that color, if it's the same as all the other kinroad "red", i think it's more of a pink. i tried a long time ago to tell kinroad to do a deeper color of red or something. their red fades too bad to a bad pink. i'm worried that my red will do the same. that's why my next buggy will be a bright YELLOW.
i'm thinking of doing more radio shows in the very near future. i would like to talk about the 300 on one of the shows. so, coldboot and rvtech, you both are invited to call in. as with eric, as a dealer of these.
again, great write up, too bad about the pics and video. oh well, next time.

It is most definitely RED, although If it were pink I wouldn't care with the performance of the thing. The Pink Beast!!!! LOL.
I would call in and talk with you about the thing , just say when. I'M not a expert on the mechanics of the thing but I can dang sure give my opinions on the performance fun factors of it!

I would have liked to see some video of it, too - but there will be lots of time for that this summer!

I fully understand not wanting to ruin your cameras in the rain and mud - that's how it was last time I went riding: too muddy to have the camera even out.

Still, I would have liked a picture of it before you ran it through the car wash! :twisted:

rvtec, the 107" is that the overall length? I was looking for the wheelbase front to rear from hub to hub.

yes its the standard kinroad red. it is more like the 70 and 110 red, has very smal metallic in it. the buggy comes with the winch plate and electrical already installed, so its just a matter of bolting it up.

I am going to e mail the compnay I found for the engine again. hopefully they will tell me more about it
