I'm looking out for the sport, true. When people screw up it makes everyone involved with the sport look bad.

Storj, I would be pissed that they took a thread down that you started without telling you. Thor, BRW cares about putting people down.
The moderators and dbeck may remove any thread at any time if they wish to. They run the site. It's their "playground" if you will. They don't need anyone permission to remove a thread.

And I'm not here to put people down. If someone posts something up, asking for people's input, then expect to get some input. But you may not like what happens when people start calling you on the carpet for your actions.

Most likely the USFS will not just approve some screen and hose clamps someone came up with. They'll probably want you to prove the device works. It would probably be much cheaper to go and buy a full exhaust system (that includes a spark arrestor) than to go through that.

he probably has more of a chance of starting a fire by throwing a cigarette out the window, but you dont see those get banned because they start fires, and thats the cause of way more fires than atv's w/o spark arrestors. man i really disagree with those hippies, i mean sierra club people. theyll look for anything to shut us down. i say we should ban hippies. whats so bad bout atving. " they take up and ruin land" well most of the OHV parks by me are by a nuclear science lab or a jet fuel company, so noones gonna wanna build there house there anyway. " they pollute" no more than cars, no where near as much. damn hippies

All worked well during the ranch trip, no fires, but a few bruises. I need to use my chest protector more often.
