I remember when the wife wrecked my quad.

She hit a stump in some tall grass, and it tossed her off. Quad rolled into and up a tree. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

Had to keep telling myself, don't look at the quad, don't look at the quad. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

She broke her wrist in so many pieces they stopped counting. Quad maybe lost some paint on the bumper.

650M, you may see some oil in the air box. That's pretty normal when they go belly up. Just coming through the crank case vent tube back into the box.

Just as long as there's not like a quart in there.

Check the filter, if it's a stock paper one, and there's oil on it, you might want to replace it. Otherwise, just wipe the airbox out.

And check the oil level on the motor and replace any that may have gotten out.

How do you look up **** at work? LOL!

I like this post, it is so true. To be honest, I like almost all the quads out there. They all have something different to offer. I find it very exciting each new year to see what changes everyone makes, or doesn't make. I have noticed Honda owners have got to be the most loyal customers ever! Period! I think Honda should give them all a kickback for staying so loyal!!!!

lol i hear ya, my bother in law will NOT buy anything but a honda, he doenst hate other brands just is die hard loyal to honda, My main reason for being a Kawasaki guy is I know my local Kawi dealer personally and he is a great guy, very honest, and Is great at getting things done if you need it.

The truth is I would probably be riding any brand that he was the dealer for, it just so happens he was kawasaki which I love.

Funny you say that cuz I ride popo's for a similar reason....great local dealer and competent mechanics. Fortunately, polaris builds an okay quad, too! LOL! I just never understood those Honda fans, but more power to them!

Honda machines are great esspesialy if you want a machine that has been around a long time without many changes [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img] and will probobly last longer than most people would ever want one to, but I personally like more power and change which Honda since the 250r seems to have nither of esspesialy in the 4x4 market which is where most people want change! Heck if they made a new 250r with uppdated tech I probobobly have one parked in my garage!
