Default check for ice

If you've driven you quad in the snow, that doesnt have inboard disk brakes, check for ice side the rim/wheel around the disk brake. If you start driving with that ice there, there's a good chance you will snap off brakes, with only the disk left. Im pretty sure the outy owners dont have to worry w/ their inboard disk brakes, but the rally and ds250 could get wrecked pretty quickly.

And if you leave a ds250 in under 32oF or 0oCelsius for a few hours, your throttle will stick really badly. When you start driving and pin it, be prepared to pull the throttle back as it will stay in WOT position.

Nice to know about the throttle sticking, since it's supposed to get in the low 20's here tonight.

Probably sounds like a warm front to you though. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
