    Does anyone have a quad or dirt bike?

    I picked this up last year to dick around on. Yamaha Blaster 200cc. It's not that big, but not to small either. Does anyone else on here have a quad,atv,or a dirt bike? I don't see many people saying that they do, so i'd thought i'd start a thread to see if there was anyone that does.

    We have 3 up here at the shop and two dirt bikes, plus whatever POS's are in the warehouse in the back.
    They're fun.

            I have a '06 Yamaha YFZ450 quad - Dropped 2 teeth on the F sprocket & added a Warn 1.5ci, a bigger F bumper, full skidplates, and whatever you call the big footwell bars & netting - otherwise bone stock. If anyone cares I'll look for pics on my hard drive.

            It's not how you handle the good times, but the faith you keep in the bad that defines you.

              wouldn't mind seeing it...btw those are called nerf bars...just like suv's and trucks. no offense but you should def. get a new kfx450, or go all out and get the lt450r. it is most def. king of all kings in the 450 class...uncork the exhaust and put a yoshi cherry bomb on it(chip) and she is ready to go

                btw how is the predator treating you? i had a chance to buy one, but i got a lt500r quadzilla instead. 500cc's of late 1980's 2-stroke madness is the greatest. i have supermoto'd it a few times...def. a great drifter

                    You and Chris are making me have to decide if I want to get an XR250 to trail ride with you guys, or buy my boss' Ducati 748S... :crazy:

                      Chris,

                      Dirt is much safer!!!!

                      No idiots on the roadway that will take you out unexpectedly!
                      Cheaper too!! Better workout as well!

                      Do iT!!!

                      Chris and I would have no trouble helping you find a good bike!!!

                        good point man, but they is nothing like zooming down the interstate at 10,000rpm on a hot bike...if you go with a streetbikre though...get either a honda cbr600rr if you want a 600 class, or for a 1000 get a yamaha r1

                          I'm also wondering how the predator is treating you. A friend and I are looking at one right now that pops out of 4th gear sometimes. We'd fix it, but I'm wondering how you like the ride. How's the adjustable rear susp.?

                            Sorry guys, just saw your followups.

                            The Predator has been awesome. My buddies and I bought them when they first came out and although it's not the fastest thing anymore it is still built like a tank and can take abuse. The Fox suspension is very plush when set up correctly and some of the guys catch crazy air on them all day long.

                            We mostly ride in Glamis so I have a full set of paddles and razorbacks. The quad will climb anything out there with me on it (230lbs without gear) and is easy enough to ride that my wife will even scoot around on it.

                            If you can get one cheaply I say go for it, but I'm probably biased.

                            Tim

                              I have a Kawasaki Mojave 250 and a Suzuki Quadrunner 250. I keep thinking I'll get a real quad one of these days but I haven't gotten around to it yet.
