Test: Goes G 625i MAX

It goes, very solid. The first impression was pleasant and already on the old road from Grosuplje, where we took a test four-wheeled car (SBA car dealership) to Ljubljana, it became clear that with the G 625i Max it was possible to drive on asphalt pretty well. Road. Later on during the test, we accumulated miles on a mostly more varied basis, where the G feels right at home. However, whether the subfloor is crushed stone or asphalt, the ride quality is completely satisfactory for amateur use.

It is known to have all four wheels mounted individually, and this is a proven recipe for safe driving. The hard bridges of the best ATVs are a thing of the past. This way it follows the turns and the established line well while driving, there are no annoying hesitation or, even worse, sudden direction changes that are otherwise very dangerous and difficult, especially at high speeds.

Well, of course, the Goes is not an off-road vehicle, but rather an off-road vehicle, an off-road vehicle of sorts, and with that in mind, the top speed, which is just under 100 km/h, is quite enough to use. what this four-wheeled vehicle is intended for. 549 cc four-stroke single-cylinder engine the lever works too.

So in a closed version, it takes your breath away when drifting sports or extreme sports driving on the field, and for recreational use it is fast enough. If necessary, the gearbox and front differential lock also help when driving uphill. Well, there is also a winch that overcomes impenetrable obstacles to have a bite to eat. With a simple intervention it is possible to remove mechanical blockages in the exhaust, but then the car will no longer be (officially) legal for use in traffic (by the way, you can drive it with a car test and a helmet on your head). . Clogging also causes the exhaust pipe and vario mat cover to get hotter, so during the summer months the use of shoes and proper trousers is a must unless you want to ride with your foot fully on the outer edge of the footpeg. However, in cold weather, this problem is not so annoying.

Although this is a mid-priced ATV, that is, above cheap Chinese goods and more expensive Japanese and American (Canadian) four-wheelers, Goes hasn't skimped on modern design. The modern and advanced design with LED lighting and beautifully "sharpened" lines stands out from the crowd and really deserves a big plus. Plus, we shouldn't lose sight of the comfort it offers so that our pampered buttocks don't complain.

If you wanted something more, it would be, say, a power steering modeled after the Canadian Can-Am, but then it probably wouldn't be that good. This one, with all the guards, guards, alloy wheels, a winch and a backrest for the passenger (well, no suitcase, to be exact), you get for 6.990 euros, which is heck of a bargain, which of course includes a warranty and two years worrying that something went wrong. If you want to do something with it at home or on the farm, you can also attach a small trailer to it. Well, maybe just for the Green Brotherhood enthusiasts, I could add an extra color combination or camouflage and that's it.
