My dad is from Ohio, Buckeye. Mom is from Kentucky, Hillbilly. Which makes me a full blooded BuckBilly!

Welcome aboard Paladin! Glad to hear you think so highly of the QuadCrazy website! A lot of great people here. Enjoy, I sure do!

I bought the wife a 07 250 Recon ES this past friday. I highly recomend it if interested in one. I will give more details and compare it to my 02 Ozark as we ride some more.

I have not riden a 2 stoke since 87. A friend had a 250 QuadRacer. WOW that was a blast. If you ever get a chance to ride a 2 stroke , do so! I think the reason they did not try to keep the 2 strokes is because they are to worried about utility sales and not enough about sport quads. Personally I think there should be a quad for everyones needs and what they want. 2 strokes are pushed aside like 5 speeds will be for utility quads. I do not ride sport quads anymore , but the 2 strokes are a rush!! Long live the 2 strokes you guys and gals out there own or own down the road.

I've seen alot of them in the 21 years I worked part time for dad, but I also saw people do things and never have a problem.Also watched people just look at stuff and it would just break.

The local radiator shop averages about 120 radiator repairs a year, because of the blow out method. When you blow it out it is like sandblasting, you have a better chance of cutting a core . But with water the dirt will go with the flow and not cut in. Also water house is more of a commom house hold tool than air.

If you have liquid cooled or an oil cooled atv, here is a easy tip about cleaning the out side of the radiator or oil cooler.Especially if you have a fan on it. Take the nozzle off you garden hose and spray the radiator or oil cooler from the back side. Opposite direction of air flow.I was talking to a Honda mechanic about 5 years ago, they were having to replace Ruby trannys because of mud and dust plugging the fins of the radiator. I told them about how my dad cleans the radiator on vehicles. To make a long story short they told a guy who was on his 3rd tranny about that. He rod in nothing but mud. He tried this method and it works really good. I also found out it helped my friend with his Polaris's over heating problem. Dust was plugging it up. Hope this helps someone out there. We spend are had earned money on our toys. Hope this helps make someones quad last longer. Hope everyone has a great weekend and gets some riding time in!!!!!!!!!!!!! :biggrin: :wink:

I had not planned on carrying this topic any farther. You did not waste your time every opinion should have a value wether anyone agrees or not. As long as people keep buying atvs and riding them that is all that counts.I will not post on this topic again.

Punishment should be a public beatin'. Put that on CNN and it might wake up some people about right and wrong.

Yeah, that might start a heated debate , but thats the beauty of FREEDOM OF SPEECH. Would still like to see a big bore with a 5 speed for us REDNECKS.

Maybe he feels about electric start Like I do about automatic Quads. They don't belong.

I think the 500 cc and smaller will get even more competitve. I also think more and more big bore goody's will be on the smaller machines where the majority of the ATV sales are at. People like me don't need anything bigger than 400cc any how.

That was funny!! :biglaugh:

It's been a fun and safe Labor Day weekend so far. Hope everyone has a great Labor Day weekend to!!!

Thank you, DirtDemon! I'm sure it will be a very merry X-Mas.

Finding out my dad's cancer is in remission and getting to spend another X-Mas with him!!!!

My choice would be a King Quad 700. I would change it from an auto to a 5 speed and a solid rear axle. I would do this because the manufacters think everyone wants a granny tranny and a caddy like ride. Also would build a 4x4 Ozark.

Repeat, what quad do you own?

By the way what quad do you own??? :confused: Also sounds like this thread is becoming , like Pete and Repeat, were siting on the fence Pete fell off. Who is left? Repeat.

Also would like to add riding with my wife , som , and daughter. Doing something as a family is awsome. Wife has only trail rode twice now. Hopefully we can get her a Honda Recon ES in early spring, so we don't have to borrow one anymore.:smile:

Fart.

It's a toss up between being bit in the eye by a dog or losing about 1/2 inch of my finger.
