Stealth 700 Dinli is a budget utilitarian ATV developed by the domestic company Stels. The model was based on the obsolete ATV 700. The developers made a number of modifications: installed a more powerful engine, slightly redesigned the design, improved the control system, etc. So what will surprise the rider with the 700 Dinli?
It’s worth starting with the fact that this is not the first 700 cc car in the manufacturer’s catalog. The developer has released the following models:
- Stealth 700 ATV. This is the basic version of the device, introduced back in 2007. Despite all the efforts of the manufacturer, the all-terrain vehicle turned out to be not the most reliable and versatile. Therefore, the developers refused to refine the model.
- Stels 700 ATV HSUN. The manufacturer took into account the previous shortcomings and created a functional all-terrain vehicle based on the standard model. The device was equipped with a more powerful engine, automatic transmission, all-wheel drive, independent suspension and electric starter.
- ATV 700 GT This is another variation of the standard 700 cc ATV of the Stealth brand. The model differs from its predecessor only in engine size and minor design changes.
In 2009, the Russian company introduced the Stels ATV 700 Dinli. However, the model did not perform well; users found a number of problems and design flaws in the device. But this time the domestic manufacturer decided to “work on the mistakes” and in 2011 they released the updated Dinli. The car has undergone major changes that affected the suspension, engine, vehicle components, etc. It has gotten to the point that many spare parts from old Dinlis do not fit the new models.

Operating experience

However, the ATV 700 ATV still has more disadvantages:

- Quality of plastic. The body of an all-terrain vehicle cracks at the slightest impact. Also, plastic is deformed at high temperatures or in frost (from -20 to -25).
- Poor handling. When driving over rough terrain, at a speed of 40-50 km/h, the device begins to twitch and tries to throw the rider off.
- Unfinished design. Snow, dirt and sand can get under the seat and into the air filter. A user who loves winter walks will have to regularly dry the case, change candles and filters.
- High engine noise level. The engine literally growls and bursts, which is very annoying, especially on long trips.

Review of Stealth 700 Dinli
Despite the fact that the brand is Chinese, its build quality is high. The fact is that Velomotors equipment is assembled at factories in Russia with components from China. Despite this, the stealth 700 ATV has high quality spare parts. The model first appeared in 2010, and the ATV is still very popular thanks to its impressive characteristics.

Stels 700 Dinly tests
Many people are interested in how an ATV behaves in various situations. The popularity of the model has made it possible to conduct several tests, both off-road and on regular city roads.
In the city, an ATV performs best, because first of all, it is equipped with all devices (turn signals, mirrors). The rubber also meets the requirements, it provides good grip, which allows you to ride on two wheels, both on the rear and on the sides.
If you are testing a vehicle off-road, the best way to test its capabilities is to drive through a water obstacle. Many people think that Chinese equipment immediately stalls in rivers or fords about half a meter deep, but for the Dingli 700 this is not an obstacle. The ATV is equipped with everything necessary for maximum immersion, so it can be safely used in the most difficult situations.
Repair and tuning
Users noted that there is little point in upgrading the Dinli 700. The device has too many shortcomings and eliminating them will cost a lot of money. Owners recommend installing heated handles, hand protection, replacing footrests and strengthening luggage racks. Such additions will significantly increase the operating comfort of the device.
With repairs, everything is also simple; the user can find all the necessary spare parts in specialized workshops or in online stores. But before buying, you should pay attention to the features of the part. Spare parts for 2009-2010 devices are not suitable for “fresh” models.
