  1. Notice the dude never lands his tricks, why would you try something like that when you cant do the basic tricks
  2. Crashing on a jump at Florence, OR a few years ago
  3. naww just for fun. The LTR almost jumps on its own, it just jumps so nice. Well I leave for training tomorrow, talk to you all in a month.
  4. PA is the place to be for Harescrambles but it looks like i will be racing MX since that is the only racing in Alaska
  5. Good jokes, unfortunately the marines do not have F-18s thats the navy. they may have naval aviators, said marine pilot, there but know they usually never have live munitions for training exercises in the US and certainly do not have a system to automatically fire missiles and would not lock onto a target inside the US, that is court martial material. They do not have Rules of Engagement inside the US meaning they are strictly forbidden to lock onto any targets.
  6. just my opinion, just like how some believe buying a ford isnt a good decision.
  7. Besides it could be worse, I could own a polaris still.
  8. I finally started getting better mileage it my truck once i flipped over 20,000 miles a few weeks ago. I got 17 mpg driving to MN which is about best my brother's old z71 got and my dads hemi. So i guess to answer your question, my truck gets about the same as the other manufacturers, just sucks the gas when you have a trailer that catches alot of wind.
  9. just a f150 lariat w/ the 5.4 i posted 9-10 mph i meant mpg
  10. Just a tip you may already know, after you rinse it off, simple green works great breaking up all the grime. After that it will be looking good in no time.
  11. Yeah i get 9-10 mph pulling my hauler with two quads with the tanks empty
  12. Yeah i climbed it not realizing i forgot to tighten the chain adjustment bolts back up. When i got back down the chain was so loose i couldve taken it off the sprocket. One of my dumba$$ moments
  13. That is awesome I totaled out my 98 banshee on an iron ore hill in Northern MN. Here is a video on me climbing a coal hill in PA. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=coPkMnmd-VI]YouTube - Worked Banshee hillclimb in Freeland PA[/ame]
  14. At least one quad, maybe both, along with my new 20' Toyhauler will be brought to my parents in MN and not taken to AK. Gas prices will kill me as it is getting it to MN from VA.
  15. I will be a lifer. I leave for warrant officer school next week and will be assigned to Ft Wainwright, AK near Fairbanks in a Infantry Stryker BDE. Should be interesting. I have been in the army for 7 years now.
  16. I bought the 2004 Banshee new when i lived in WA state and rode the dunes in Florence and Winchester Bay, OR. I built it up for woods racing when I moved to VA and realized it wasnt the best quad for harescrambles. I love this quad but admit it isnt good for woods racing but is and will remain the king of the dunes. I will never sell this quad. 2004 Yamaha Banshee LE, Adjustable Stator Plate, V Force series 2 reeds, UM pro peg nerf bars, Roll Design Anti-Vibe Steering Stem, GPR Steering Dampener, Tag T2 Handlebars, ASR +2 A-arms, Pro-racer tie rods, Extended steel braided brake lines, AC font skid and AC rear skid plate, FMF fatties w/ powercore 2 silencers, E-brake block off kit, Trinity 2-in-1 carburator kit (35mm PWK), AC front bumper, +4 LSR axle, LSR sprocket/brake hub, LSR axle locknut, hide-a-key ignition relocator, K&N air filter w/ pro design adapter plate, Engine ice coolant, Elka front shocks w/o rezzies, extended billet throttle, All balls axle/bearing kit, Cyrca barkbuster hand guards, Hiper Tech carbon fiber beadlock wheels, ITP GNCC Front and ITP XCR Rear tires, Barnett Clutch kit with Terry Cable easy pull clutch cable, shaved head, shock covers, ASV Clutch/Brake Lever, Terry Cable dual gasser Thumb/Twist throttle, Regina Sprocket (14/41) and chain kit, Laeger Stcok Length Swingarm, Billet Trail Tech head lights, Modquad Billet Axle Housing, Modquad billet water impeller, dipstick, brake res. cover I then bought the 2006 Suzuki LT-R to have a fuel injected 450. After some minor mods and narrowing the width from 49" stock to 47", I realized how great this quad is for woods racing. 2006 Suzuki LT-R 450, Pro armor black fat bar nerfs with heal guards, Pro Armor chassis and PRM swingarm skid, shock covers, Pro Design intake and K&N filter, DG A-arm Guards, Z-400 Hubs, DASA exhaust, Power Commander, Carbon Fiber frame Guards and pump cover, Hiper Beadlock Wheels w/ yellow rings, ITP GNCC Tires, Pro Armor Front Bumper w/ rear Grab Bar, K&K Case Saver & E Brake Block Off Kit, Power Recreation graphics Kit, Pro Armor Tether Cord, Yellow CV4 Radiator Hoses, Fasst Flexx Handlbars, ATV Fourplay Steering Stem, Blue Carbon Fiber Gas Cap, Yellow Quad Tech Hood
  17. Yeah it brought a tear to my eye the day by Ex bought her own banshee. I was happy as hell when I received that divorce decree.
  18. Good luck, I wish i could ride. I havent rode in over a month and before that was the Rausch Creek race in July. The Army has me busy right now and couldnt ride since January when I returned from my last deployment because I couldnt risk getting hurt before warrant officer school next week.
  19. Then ride what you have until you can, then upgrade, i just wanted you to know i had nothing but problems with my trailblazer after modifying it. If you change the clutch spring, it makes a world of difference, other than that I would leave it alone. I am done.
  20. Wow it sounds like you already have your mind made up. Here a tip dont post if you dont want anyones opinion. Did it occur to you that some of us have been down this road before and are trying to help you.
  21. I 100% concur from personal experience. I had a 1998 trailblazer and my brother had a 1999. We had the cylinders punched out, hot seat pip, clutching, the list goes on. After we blew the motors each twice we sold them and lost our a$$es on the machines.
