Hi all...

Saw this club and thought I should log in. I'm a mechanic in New Zealand and have been mainly self employed in small rural communities for the last forever. I've worked on everything from heavy machinery and decent sized boat motors to tiny model airplane engines,

If there's anything I can help with let me know.

 

The quad forums here are great, particularly so due to the friendly atmosphere and lack of arguing or slagging off.. which seem to be the norm some places..  Good work guys.

No trouble, my pleasure.. 

Tell me, do we get those points on the leader board when someone likes our post do we ? I've been trying to figure out how I got up there.. 

 

(I hope that's a covid mask you're wearing, not a highwaymans.)

Oh ok, and Hi. And I guess being as how you're fixing a quad you must be rural ? Being a country mechanic's a good thing, plenty of variety and great customers..

Howdy,

I'm a mechanical engineer that has been working on, breaking, fiddling with, building, and reading about just about anything with mechanical parts.  I have done all my own fixing of stuff since I built my first motor scooter in 7th grade.  I was born in 1949, same as my 8N Ford tractor.  Consequently I have enjoyed the evolution of technology in so many areas.  At 74 I am still having fun learning new things, so this forum will be a great source.

      I have been exploring all the options available, so many, its hard to choose. I have kind of narrowed it down to the Honda Pilot, Subaru Outback, and Kind of looking at the Outlander, although its a little small,  the new one is nice looking. Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations or gripes with any of these rides. I have driven Jeeps for the past 25  years and they have been great, but their price point has gotten to high. Expieriences good or bad would be helpful. Thanks!

      This is something I'm extremely curious about. Has anyone ever attempted to buy a quad (or any other vehicle) from an impound lot? I've always wondered if this could be a bargain, or a waste of time. Google searches do turn up some helpful results. Looks like the state of NJ holds auctions online which I'd be a bit hesitant about.
       
      My online searches haven't really turned up any results of anyone buying an ATV this way. I'd be really curious if anyone tried this, or knows someone who has. I've actually found a couple pages with online auctions for my state, but none had ATVs.

      Hi, I have been around everything with a motor since I was little, and finally purchased more to get my husband, and kids involved. I have 4 quads I will be searching around for information on. I have two 2002 Suzuki LT80K quads, a 1997 Yamaha Timberwolf 250, and a 1996 Kawasaki Bayou 220. I have had different ones throughout the years, and plan on buying another Yamaha Banshee. I plan on trying to learn more about all of them, so I can customize some of them. I know nothing about them besides how to race them, my dad always took care of the rest, but figured it was time for me to learn.

      Hi all, from Virginia here. This winter I bought a old Atv to tinker with and have really enjoyed it. Thanks for this forum.
