  1. There can and could be so many people that can dress up as something like that. Its been long enough that people are saying they see these things that it should have come out by now.
  2. Here's me and my son goofing around This is my husband and I on Xmas eve. My sons first night home from the hospital.
  3. It all depends on how you ride your quad and what you want out of it.
  4. If you came upon a big lump some of money, what would be the first 10 things you would buy?
  5. This is too funny...check it out. LOT OF POKEMON CARDS THAT MY KIDS TRIED TO SNEAK BY ME - (eBay item 130144061675 end time Aug-22-07 12:03:50 PDT)
  6. I got the mohawk off of ebay. Ill have to take a picture of my helmet and post it.
  7. I just ordered a shirt from them yesterday. They also have a myspace page so you can search for them. I have them on my top friends. If your on my friends you can view it from there.
  8. My husband rides and we know a bunch of dirt bike riders so Ive heard of all those. Just thought it was kinda funny.
  9. That is really cool. Interesting to read also. I love the pictures. Im a city girl (las vegas) so Ive never seen anything like that other than in pictures.
  10. Does is cost more for the manufacturer to make the quad that way? Not that it should matter if they wanna keep selling them.
  11. I cant post an opinion on this one because Ive never riden a 2 stroke. Everyone I know has a 4 stroke. I just dont think they should outlaw the 2 stroke. Makes me wonder...are they going to be doing that to bikes too. It wouldnt make sense to have 2 stoke bikes and not quads.
  12. For those of you that know a dirtbiker and never know what the heck he or she is saying here's a run down on some popular dirtbike words. Brraaaapppp: The most commonly used word in the dirtbike world. Usually we do this when we're bored and just want to express ourselves. Endo: Front of the bike diving down in a crash usually causing rider to go over the bars. Usually used in conjunction with "wad" or "ate crap." Loop Out: Opposite of Endo. Front end goes high and rider jumps off back. Usually occures with entry level riders off jump. Most commonly followed by laughter. Wad: To crash or screw something up in a big way. Usually used as a warning. Example "don't do that jump or you'll wad it up." Arm Pump: Occurs when a rider is out of shape or uncomfortable on the bike and his forearms get all stiff and feel like they're going to blow up. Hard to explain unless you've experienced it. Wiskey Throttle: Usually occurs shortly after arm pump when rider accidently grabs a handfull of throttle when he shouldn't have. Usually occurs in corners and is followed by an Endo. Yard Sale: A hard crash resulting in the bike cartwheeling and leaving parts across the track. Usually occurs in the first turn or on straight aways. Seat Bounce: The art of sitting off the face of a jump and using the suspension as a pogo stick to clear jumps right out of a corner. When entry level racers do this it is usually followed by an panic rev and an endo. Panic Rev: Usually done while endoing off a jump. A rider gives the bike full throttle and hits the rev limiter in a pathetic effort to save their butt. It usually does nothing for the rider but fans are able to follow the sound and watch the crash unfold. Rev Limiter: As far as the bike will go in the rpm's before it blows up. Fast riders bounce off the rev limiter all the time to keep rpms up while in the air. Most people just bounce the bike off the rev limiter (especially 4 strokes) because it sounds good. Whip: Leaning off the side of the bike on a jump and laying the bike over in the air. Not to be confused with just sticking your butt off the side of the bike. Swap: Occurs when back end kicks violently from left to right. Usually occurs in whoops sections or long rough straight aways. Whoops: Section of track with large bumps the a rider has to skim over as fast as possible. Endos, panic revs, rev limiters, and swaps are usually found here. Case: Coming up too short on a jump. Usually occurs with a panic rev. Over Jump: To jump passed the landing of a jump and landing on the flat ground. Triple: A jump that has a take off and two landings. You can double it and land on the first landing or jump the whole thing at once. Usually found on arenacross and supercross tracks. Motocross: Outdoor races that usually have longer lap times and last longer. Arenacross: Indoor racing that has very short lap times and is held in arena's and at fairs. Supercross: Indoor racing that is held in football and baseball field size stadiums. Cross Country: Outdoor races that are really long and last about 2 to 3 hours held out on peoples land that people have just made trails on and became race tracks. So now when someone says "This guy was racing arenacross and seatbounced a triple but cased it and wadded it up" you'll know exactly what they're talking about. Brraaaappp!!
  13. WHY ATV'S ARE BETTER THAN MEN... An ATV can go for more than one ride in an hour. ATV's never develop spare tires. ATV's don't get you pregnant. An ATV doesn't care what time of month it is. ATV's don't have parents. Your ATV will let you know if something is wrong. Your ATV won't judge your friends. If your ATV is boisterous, you can buy a muffler. If your ATV smokes you can do something about it. ATV's don't care about how many other ATVs you have ridden. When riding, you and your ATV both arrive at the same time. One ATV will satisfy you every time. If your ATV has high mileage, you can just get a new one. ATVs don't care about breast size. If your ATV is too soft you can get new shocks. You don't have to drink beer before your ATV looks appealing. You can be proud of your ATV regardless of the model. You can ride a ATV as long as you want and it won't get limp. ATVs always feel like going for a ride when you do. ATVs don't insult you if you are a novice. Your ATV never wants a night out alone with the other ATVs. ATVs don't make you late. You don't have to primp before riding your ATV. Your ATV won't complain when you use protection. If your ATV doesn't look good, you can paint it or get better parts. Your ATV won't care if you fake it. ATVs are always ready to stop when you are. Your ATV has a built in vibrator. Your ATV doesn't care how heavy you are. Your ATV won't shrink when it's cold. If your ATV can't fire up, you can just replace the battery. You don't have to cook for your ATV. Your ATV can't ride around behind your back. If your ATV is cold you can choke it. You only have to ride your ATV when you want to. Your ATV won't go for rides by itself. ATVs don't snore.
  14. THQ has announced that it will release MX vs ATV Untamed, the latest edition of its motocross and ATV off road racing franchise, for multiple consoles and handhelds in January 2008. More... A few screenshots.
  15. "Girlyz Clothing Company was created to support women in the motocross industry. Our women’s motocross gear, women’s race gear and women’s off-road gear were created to fit the female figure with comfort, style and durability." Girlyz Clothing Co. - Women's Motocross Gear
  16. Being female’s in a male dominated sport, we have quite a few different struggles. One of the things that are often overlooked is maintaining a "girly" image, even when we are riding in the dirt and mud, and smell like gas and sweat. So, What to do? Not to worry, QuadGirls.com is here to help! We have the tips and tricks to stay beautiful at the track after the helmet comes off. Dirt on your face? Never a disgrace! Situation: You had a great race, and came off the track to have a bunch of people waiting to take pictures, and congratulate you. Problem? The track was dusty, and you know your face is probably covered with the dirt and grime. No time to get to a shower, and no place to wash your face and nowhere to hide. What to do?! Solution: Baby wipes can be a racing girls best friend. From dirty hands, to your face, a quick wipe can be perfect to clean up fast at the track when your away from a sink. Not to mention, they are ‘throw-aways’ and wont need washed which is especially important when you come back home. Ware Wolf Legs Without the Full Moon? Situation: You’re at a really warm track for the weekend with your truck, a tent, and a handy dandy port-a-john. After the race, you want to put some shorts on, but your legs are hairier than most of the men there. What to do? Solution: Leg hair can grow so fast, but there are many ways to slow it down. Of course there is the traditional waxing gimmicks that supposedly “don’t hurt”, and I wish you luck with that. But for me, keeping my legs clean shaved starts before I leave for the weekend. Shaving with hair conditioner will leave you leg hair thinner, softer, and less noticeable. This quick fix will last a few days, and although your hair will grow, it wont be as easy to see. Crampin Your Style? Situation: It’s that wonderful time of month once again, but this time its also a big race or ride. Your cramping up so bad you can barely stand up, let alone ride. To tell the guys “I can’t ride today” is defiantly out of the question, but riding seems to be to much too. What to do?? Solution: For some time now, women have been able to look to menstrual pills such as Midol to solve some of the cramping and bloating. Midol can often be a very useful tool, and for some, is enough. For other ladies, a stick on heating pad by Playtex can be a great relief, and will move with you when your ride. Helmet Fro’s are for the Bro’s Situation: You just came back from a great ride, and you’re about to take your helmet off and strut your stuff through the pits, until you remember what’s under that helmet… HELMET HAIR!!! Solution: When you’re riding, a helmet is always a must, which also means helmet hair. Not to fear, lady racers/riders have been working on this folly for quite some time. Racers such as Angela Moore and Heather Byrd wear their hair in a French braid to keep it neat and together under the helmet. For the ladies who don’t have the dreads for braids, try using a bandana. Bandana’s are cheap, and can be stylish. It’s easy to get a color that matches your outfit, and can be worn under the helmet and will keep sweat out of your eyes. All In all, as ladies and racers, we have a little more to struggle with than just the average guy. Keep these tips in mind and you can keep beauty in racing. ________________________________________________________________ What are some beauty tips you ladies have to share?
  17. Krystal....what kind of food is that? I like Arbys or Sonic.
  18. No one has any weird habits? One of mine is I have to put a book or something in front of the time on the digital cable box before I go to sleep. If I wake up in the middle of the night I will just lay there and watch the time and wont be able to go back to sleep.
  19. Though this article is long I think its pretty good. Let us know what you think after you read it. The Great Debate: Two Stroke vs. Four | ATV Reviews
  20. Following are some rough guidelines to help establish a maintenance schedule for your 2-stroke ATV. Recommendations are for a High Performance 2-Stroke ATV engines TOP END: It is recommended to remove your ATV’s top end (cylinder, head and piston)every 30 to 50 hours, most engines will run to 50 hours under normal conditions, but have started to loose their edge on performance in the 25 to 30 hour range. (NOTE: It takes a good running ATV approximately 24 hours to complete the Baja 1000) While disassembled piston to cylinder wall clearance should be checked and serviced accordingly (clearances needed to be measured by a trained professional with the proper equipment). Reeds should be checked and replaced if worn. New gaskets and top end bearing should be used upon reassembly. CARBURETOR: Carburetor should be cleaned at least once per riding season. Ideally it is recommended to thoroughly disassemble and clean your carburetor when servicing the top end. AIR CLEANER: For machines running with air box lid off, air cleaner should be replaced with a clean unit or washed and oiled after each full day of riding. (See DRI Air Cleaner TECH Sheet) TRANSMSIION OIL: Transmission oil should be changed every 10 hours. When changing the oil warm engine up to operating temperature before removing drain plug. (The oil is drained when hot to help collect any foreign debris floating through your engine) Be Careful Not to Burn Yourself! It is always a good idea to drain your oil into a clean dry container, so you may inspect it for foreign debris after it settles. Make sure that aluminum crush washer on drain plug is replaced at least every third oil change. COOLANT: Coolant/water solution should be replaced each time the top end is serviced. CLUTCH: When inspecting clutch, fiber and steel plates, clutch basket, inner hub and pressure plate should be checked. Racing engines should have clutch checked every 25 hours for MX and XC. Every 5-10 hours for TT and Flat Track. Every 50 hours for Desert. Recreational engines should have clutch components checked every 75 hours of normal riding. For extreme usage check every 50 hours. Regularly changing the transmission oil will prolong clutch life. LOWER END: Lower end inspection consists of crankshaft, bearings and transmission inspection. Racing engines should have engines lower end disassembled and inspected every 50 hours. Recreational engines should have lower ends disassembled and inspected every 150 to 200 hours. SPECIAL NOTE: Make sure swing arm pivot bolt and associated bearings, bushing and collars must be kept clean and properly greased. Failure to keep this very important bolt serviced can cause bolt to seize in the swing arm. Causing expensive damage to repair.
