I aint nobody but the source is!

NO! I didn't sell that bike. I still have it. It's sitting in my fun runner all cleaned up & ready for the
next trip. There's no for sale sign on it either. So I think my icon is ok to stay.

I figure I will sell my 89 250r when something better comes along. That's right. I own the best quad
ever made to this day. My bike is completely stock except for a curtis sparks TT pipe & silencer, K&N filter, V force reeds & durablue Elimanator axle. Everything else is bone stock. I mostly just play ride @ Pismo Dunes. But when I want to pull up to competition hill or the flat area out back. Ill race any stock or piped only bikes. & yes I give all those guys a run for the money. In fact I win more than I lose. That includes Raptors, Banshee's, Cannondale's & Suzuki's. By the way does The Z400 have a tail light? I was just wondering. I haven't seen one yet. So while you all argue about who owns the best quad. I go to bed at night with a smile because I know I own the best quad ever made to this day. By the way "DaBeechMan", I know your bike don't have a tail light. So don't think I think my stocker's going to spank your stretched out machine! Which is a Honda!

I knew if I threw Banshee's in, I would open up a whole new can of worms![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]. I ride with a couple guys who have piped 88 250r's. There just as fast as me. Infact the winner usually goes to the guy who gets the jump. So there's nothing special about my bike. And as far as racing piped banshee's. It's pretty close. But we could argue about that all day.

I just bought my 11 year old a 250EX.
