Cheap Chinese powersports vehicles from Amazon and Temu are fun and easy ways to get in on some serious off-road fun—just don’t expect them to last. But you know what they’re also good for? Some crazy custom builds.
We’ve talked about tons upon tons of knockoff bikes, ATVs, and UTVs used as platforms for some seriously insane builds, with some sketchier than others. And what we have here today is indeed sketchy, but it at least looks like it’s being built by a dude who knows what he’s doing.
Those of you familiar with YouTube channel Vasily Builds would know that this guy makes some of the most insane vehicles on the internet. And his latest project is no exception, as he took a cheap Chinese quad and decided that it would be a good idea to transform it into a UTV with some serious suspension articulation.
And while most side-by-sides are powered by modest twin- or three-cylinder engines, Vasily decided that the best engine to go into this build would be none other than the 1,340cc inline-four screamer found in the Suzuki Hayabusa. That’s right, another Hayabusa swap. This makes me wonder—how many crashed Hayabusas must there be for folks to be able to snap up these engines left and right?
