Looking for a Chinese ATV

A friend of mine in Canada is in the market for a new ATV. Does anyone have any recomendations?

What sort of ATV? Like a race type 2wd or a utility 4wd? I know where I got my bike from Coast to Coast motorsports has some pretty good looking ones, however they are priced accordingly... If he is looking for a cheap one, there is a "200 Gio Beast" from Giovanni, I think it is probably lower quality, but it looks alright, and is fairly cheap, I'm guessing he could get one for a little under $1000, shipped.

I haven't seen one in person, but have heard they aren't really high quality.

Are the Chinese ATV's in North America bought the same way as the motorcycles? i.e. mail order?

Those ones are... My Lifan bikes were not however, both were bought in person.

Mike, not sure if your friend decided on a quad yet, but I was looking at a Sumoto 200 Cyclone from www.coasttocoastmotorsports.com and it looks like a pretty sweet atv... It's 2wd, liquid cooled, and the build quality on them looks top notch... The "list" price is $1899, which is the same as the one I saw on the back of a trailer for sale in a Home Depot parking lot, which was air cooled. The giovanni ones are cheaper, but from what I hear the quality is low (and from appearance).

Here's the Cyclone,
