    NOS 2002 Cannondale Cannibal 440 Never Started Showroom New

    Check out my new 2002 Cannondale Cannibal 440. it has never been fired or started. i was assembled in '02 and was on the showroom floor then put into storage until a divorce settlement put them in the hands of the ex-wife of the situation. So i came across it and bought it. this thing is amazing. if u don't know about these quads they were FAR ahead of their time and because of that they were very expensive and didn't move well. it has a full aluminum frame, a fuel injected 440 four stroke. electric start, hydraulic clutch, steel brake lines, and dry sump oil system into the side frame rails. its pretty amazing. these were completely American made. and they were producing 40 hp back then. for reference the new 450's r making 40-42 hp now. I really think that these may be a rare item in the years to come. there were not very many produced at all. just a cool piece of ATV history to add to the collection.

    Oh wow. I don't care what bike its is, but there is something about NOS anything that is just plain cool. I have always wanted to ride one of those. There is a guy on a local Mustang forum that has like 7 of these things in all flavors and loves them but can't keep them together.

    What are your plans with it?

    agreed on the funky looking headlights, but very nice find just the same. i like it and would own it, but don't know anything about them. is that made by the same Cannondale that makes mountain bikes? if so then i could see how they were ahead of their time, because their mountain bikes were ahead of their time when i biked back in the day.

    Amazing Find!!!!! Congrats~~
    Wikipedia "All Terrain Vehicle" Definition excerpt
    Other smaller or lesser known companies, such as Tiger ATV, Franks, and Cagiva, produced racing three wheelers, but in much smaller numbers. Few of these machines are known to exist today and are highly sought by collectors.

    Nice find, I used to make the suspension components for everything Cannondale out of a small shop in stratford, those things are pretty solid machines, too bad they never took off, way ahead of their time, hope you have a ton of fun with it!
