Anyone here play video games?

I've been playing the MX vs. Quad franchise. I liked Unleashed and Untamed, but I've been reading a lot about the new one coming out, Reflex, and I can't wait. They added stuff like road divits actually messing with your ride, and a realistic streaming system.

There's a new trailer for this up on youtube, looks like we might get a GREAT quad game!

So you'd actually have to use one stick on the controller to control the rider, one to control the quad... that seems pretty cool. I dunno how anyone who's never been on a quad enough to really grasp how they work would have an easy time with this, but I'm looking forward to it.

BTW, I got banged up so I've got plenty of time for video games (if you were wondering)!

Will end up like every other atv game out there. Pretty crappy. Nothing beats getting on the real thing and after about 5min jumping a fake bike or atv and doing the exact same stunts gets really old.

Im not wasting my money on it im getting Left 4 Dead 2, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 and BattleField BadCompany 2.

Of course it doesn't beat getting on the real thing. I'm sure strapping on the pads and playing in an actual NFL game is much better than playing Madden. It's a game, it shouldn't be held in comparison to the real thing.

As far as it getting old, I think the previous games in the MX series hold up. Controlling the rider means it's not easy to land insane stunts, and this looks like it will be more in depth. Plus with online play and trophies, I think it'll have more replay value than you think.

Yea that's the good thing about good games coming out every few months, once you're done with one, you can move on to the other.

But nowadays, there's so many ways to play if a game is half decent it shold never get old. For example, I see myself playing this 1 player as well as with friends, PLUS I can play online.. it's never the same experience.

And as for revisiting old games, I've got my old NES hooked up as we speak. Excitebike is just as good as I remember it being.

Bringing this back up since I just found out the demo for MX vs ATV Reflex comes out on Thursday! I pretty much can't wait to get this and try it out. Any other of you folks getting the demo on Thursday?

      I took this video back in 2007. Recently the trail (old railroad grade) I was riding was converted into a walking trail (obviously no more ATV riding on it) 👎 I dug up this old video and put it together since it shows the entire section and what it used to look like. The quality of the video is lacking, but this was from 18 years ago. Image stabilization didn't exist back then so I wore the camera on my helmet. (mounted to the quad was useless with all the shaking) so there is some annoying frames of me looking around. I noted any historical items from the railroad in the video. There is a section where the railroad grade is wiped out due to erosion so I had to jump off it and ride an abandoned road for a section to get around it.

      I see quite a few ads for that  Tribotex additive. It's kind of expensive, has anyone used it it their ATV or any other vehicle?

      It starts and runs Ok but after a while the temp gage lights up and the fan fails to start.  Any suggestions on where to start looking would be helpful.  Thanks

      So my latest wheeler is a 04 Yamaha Bruin 350. It had all the wires cut from the stator and a few others and no wiring harnesses. The previous owner had them all twisted together and the bike neutral light would come on it would start (hard to start) but then would idle fine. It would die when you gave it gas so I soldered all the wires together and went on inspecting assuming it was a carb issue. Later after the carb was cleaned and adjusted I got this (see video). The bike would want to die anytime you gave it gas and there would be this horrible knocking sound but only when you gave it gas. I was worried it was the rod bearing and electrical still messed up somehow.
      Upon further inspection of the wires coming from the stator there was a W/R wired to R and a R wired to W/R. I switched them so they matched per the service manual (W/R to W/R and R to R) and the bike started right up, idled and revved out fine and the knocking noise disappeared. This was the problem the whole time. It was just really hard to tell bc the oem wires coming from the stator were so brown and dirty I could barely make out which was which.
      Where the hell did that knocking noise go? and what was causing it?? Just racking my brain trying to figure out what it was so I know for next time but I can't make sense of it... Really thought it was the rod bearing but it didn't make the noise at idle so I was questioning it...Luckily I kept searching!!

      Have a carb off an '07 Big Bear 400 that sat a couple of years, probably more.  Friend asked me to clean it, which I did, soaking the jets and spraying out all of the ports with carb cleaner as best I could.  Replaced o-rings, needle valve & seat, tweeked float level.  Bike starts and idles well but doesn't want to pick up above 1/4 throttle.  That would appear to be in the slide needle range.  Main jet is clean, needle is clean and straight, diaphragm good.  It seems I saw (in a diagram) a port that comes into the slide needle area from the side.  This would be in the carb body between the main jet and the throat of the carb.  I would like to soak the carb in Gunk Carb Cleaner, the gallon paint can with a little basket.  Curious what Mikuni uses for bearings and seals in the throttle shaft.  I'm guessing HDPE or Delrin, or maybe brass; not sure what effect Gunk would have on the polymers.  Has anyone actually soaked a carb in Gunk??  First hand knowledge, please, and what effect, if any, on the carb.  Pulling the throttle shaft out would be a last resort.  Getting the butterfly screws out and staked back in would seem to be a nightmare.
      Thanks
      Jim
