Most badass ATV I've ever seen! I see many applications for this platform ie: search & rescue. To everyone saying how dangerous it looks and lacking seating, realize this is obviously a test rig, and not a production model with seats, fenders, ect. H&H did the same with big Ripsaw if you check out the other vids..just a drivetrain and roll cage first...then later, it got pretty!

Give it a snorkel induction tube that sticks up a bit and you could probably in warmer conditions drive it underwater. Would be super bad ass. Think of of those H1s that could go completely under roof and all. What is track maintenance like when you use it seriously? High maintenance? And is it difficult to perform on it? Super cool design.
