I checked with my dealer about six months ago when I was thinking of getting the last one that I came across and he told me that he couldn't get Genuine Yamaha parts for em anymore so are we talking about aftermarket parts? As far as me being Man enough to ride anything with less than four wheels.....I have two dirtbikes so does that count?

Just going by the comment at the first of this posting of how this Raptor is crazy and wondering if the sport quad bug has bitten her yet.....It would be real hard for me to get rid of my Grizzly but there is no way I could get rid of my sport quads.

Well some of us grew out of trikes once we got old enough to quit peddling our toys Seriously though I would love to have a Tri-Z and have come across a few decent kept up ones that were reasonable for what they were wanting but its just hard to get parts for em around here anymore

So Lildaisygrl18....how do you like riding on a true sports quad? Just wondering if you are already thinking about trading in the warrior when yall get it back together.....not knocking the warrior but I am more parcial to my sport quads over my Grizzly.

We have a storage container that they stay locked up in and have two Rotties that guard it pretty good And no we haven't checked with any other insurance companies.....State Farm has always treated us right with our house and vehicles....maybe when the kids are out of the house I will be able to afford another $1500 a year on em

Don't have any insurance on our toys.....We use State Farm on our house, camper and three vechicles.....know of several folks that have insurance on their quads with State Farm in different parts of the country and only pay around $130.00 a year.....well we have so many quad thefts in this part of the country that ours would run just over $300.00 a year for each of our quads.....you would think that we would get some kind of a discount with everything else insured but not living here

We have one place that we ride at where all of the trails start off of a creekbed.....I always plan a weekend trip there whenever I get a new pair of boots...the first day I will stay back at the camp walking up and down the creekbed while the family is riding and they will be good to go for the next day. I know of a few folks that will wear a new pair of boots in the shower a few times before they ride with em on.

If you wet them down and walk around in em some before you ride with em it will help in the break in.....once you break em in and get used to them I bet you will be able to leave the shifter in the normal position.

Hold on to all of your pennies and get the 700 if you can.....the 660 is a nice quad but the 700 is worth the extra money if you are going to get a Raptor.

Nice new addition to the family

Here is a scaled down version that is special to me.....this is one of my daughters favorite places to ride. When we were coming back from this Father/Daughter ride together she told me that when she got older and had a family of her own all her family was going to have a quad or a dirtbike to ride and spend time together.....thats what its all about

Here is another scaled down awesome pic of a YFZ450

Here is a scaled down of one of my favorites that I can post here.....I love it when I hear that a YFZ450 is not a good trail quad and isn't good in the mud :rolleyes:

Have several desktops that I switch back and forth but wouldn't be able to post on in this forum

I own a 05 Grizzly 660....awesome utility quad that has never let me down on the trails or in the mud. The main reason that I got it is for the rest of the family members to ride on and not have to think about working the clutch.....just hop on and go. Seems that every time we have taken it camping it has come in handy pulling someone back to the trailhead....we have just been very lucky that we haven't had to pull our own toys back with it

I own a 04 YFZ450 and its the first quad that I had ever been on.....had never even sat on a trike before I got this quad. I had owned several street bikes in my earlier years and finally decided that I wanted a quad and when this was coming out all I read about was how bad it was going to be. I have gotten other quads since this one but this is still my favorite to ride on

Hey mywifeknowseverythin....glad to see that your kids ride to but man you need to get him on a real quad

Where is the pics?

Here is a pic of my boots.....the Thor T30 (no longer make em) is on the left with the ATV sole.....the middle and the one on the right are the Thor Quadrant MX boots. I love my Quadrant boots and almost refuse to wear the old T30.....don't know if it is the ATV sole or just the way the T30 is made but the sole doesn't give hardly at all.

The first pair of boots that I bought was the Thor T30 ATV boots.....the soles work great when walking as far as traction goes in mud but the sole on that boot doesn't give any at all and feels like they have concrete blocks strapped to em. I have bought several pair of Thor Quadrant boots without the ATV soles since then and love em.

I run ITP Mud Lite XTR's on my Grizzly and Maxxis Razrs 2 on my sport quads.

Never played with a potato gun but do one of my main hobbies other than riding my quads is competitive shooting. Here is a pic of some of my favorite 1911's that I compete with.

I have been looking at the superman theme from xgxracing .com for awhile now.....what theme are you looking at? White Knuckle Graph-X, Inc.: X-Treme Graphics for X-Treme Vehicles is another place that does custom graphics

Here is the governments link that is basicly the same but worded a little different. The link posted earlier was a trial lawyers web site looking for anyone that has had a wreck. So far there hasn't been any accidents much less a death. Yamaha Motor Corp., U.S.A. Recall of ATVs Now here is a government link to all of the atv recalls......Yamaha has only had 4 total....thats a lot better than Honda, Kawasaki, Suziki, Polaris etc. No wonder I have three Yamaha's ATVSafety.gov Recalls
