when r u scheduled to be home??

welcome, such great pictures i love the baby/daddy pic....absolutely cute!!!!

i agree...MWKE you are an amazing person. keep the chin up, you may not know how many people you're helping by just smiling at them....

My husband rides an 08 TRX450ER...we've done TONS of mods to it...new shocks, stabilizer, rims, tires, fasst bars, exhaust, nerfs/bumpers/skids all around...and we added a kick start to it. He races the AA Pro class in our local series and has had a few issues...it tends to overheat during muddy races, he has to ducttape the bumper and air boxes pretty good. But, many quads have to do this. He got the kicker kit because we've had to replace the starter clutch quite a few times..mind you we've had this less than 3 years...and you can still use both electric and kicker! If you're going to get the TRX, ask questions. See if any mods have been done to it... If you're serious about getting one, I would suggest revalving the stock shocks like Bot said...GT Thunder does them or Rocket Rons does a great job too...we're sending our shocks there next (We got them straight from Elka to start). New tires, and a new exhaust will make a world of difference. If you're serious about getting into racing...save some money and buy a stabilizer, you'll thank your wallet later for that. I don't know how many times I've hit a tree and shoulda gotten hurt pretty bad this season and didn't cause I spent the extra money on a good stablizer (Precision Pro)... There's a lot of things you can do to the TRX...it's just how much you're willing to spend...you might find Ebay to be your new best friend Hope this helps!

when I started riding, I was doing supercross/motocross primarily. Now I'm doing more harescrambles than anything...but, you really got to know your quad when you're jumping. Guessing through the gears to make it over a jump is not too great----trust me, I've had my fair share of crashes..LOL! At first try doing little doubles, or even just singling jumps...do tabletops that will help you build your speed up. That way, if you don't clear the tabletop at first, you're not crashing. Avoid step ups unless they're small and you know you can clear them. My problem was I thought I was on a 450 riding when I was really on a 400...I had Joe Moto in my eyes and thought I was invincible to crashing...turns out I'm normal let me know how it works out! and, post some pics

wooot :) got anymore??

sweet 08 450r my husband has the same one but redid the blue all red!!!

welcome muddie i'm from NY...i race the local WNYOA series and some GNCC's from time to time....this place is a wealth of information from other users so if you have any problems, ask away

:iagreec:

if youre going the stick stabilizer route also, the one Bot gave you the link for has a rebuildable model, make sure you get that one so you can get a longer life out

Here's some more of the past races we've done... Narly holeshot at Arcadia Bark Busters 5/31/09 Hill at Arcadia where's everyone else's pictures!?!?!?! (besides bot)

i'll try to remember that. when the adrenaline gets pumpin i sometimes lose myself LOL. makes sense tho....

Post up your racing pics for everyone to look at!! Here's a few of mine... 6/13/09--Miles Mtn. National in Elkland, PA *Holeshot, all by my lonesome* *Creek Jump* *Hot, muddy, whooped...downhill section*

bahahaha thanks I try to only b***h when it's needed LOL!

sweeet pics looks like ur gettin pretty comfy on that dirt scooter :)

Welcome welcome What do you ride??

I'd say DEFINITELY change the oil...that's a MAJOR part in how the quad functions...if it still acts funky and you've got the skills, pull the clutch apart to see if there's notching or anything like that. My quad was acting funny a while ago and when we pulled it apart I had a clutch plate blow up in there. Also found some notching in my basket.... just a thought...

WOOOOOOOOOOT for coming to QuadCrazy and for gettin a Honda :) I LOVE my 400ex!!

well u should get one hondas are where it's atttt!

holy shmokes i hope my husband don't talk about me like that LOL!!

we should come up with a new racing idea. its hard for me to enter the ones that are about trail riding at places cuz i dont do that, or i ride on private land so i can't post the landholders info. i'm sure other ppl that ride on private land feel the same way plus, racing is pretty mcuh all we do these days. gotta love it.

bahahahahaha awesome :)

Anyone got new pics of their ride? I'ma take some of mine later and post now that she's pretty much done with new decals and stuff

was there ever a best race picture type contest? i dont remember.

yey for QC :)
