Glad to hear everyone was alright!!!! Poor quads though.... I know the feeling (notice my signature), I rolled my '02 700 over top of me going up a gas line, I almost was at the top when all of sudden she just flipped over backwards, lucky I am a big and strong. I litelally benched pressed and leg pressed the quad off of me, she landed on her feet but on an angle to the hill, and that was all she wrote. She tumbled over and over about 7 times, I believe the Polaris Accesorry bumpers played a part in twisting the frame as she tumbled down the hill, bouncing as high as she is long. She finally came to rest at the bottom in the small tree that it plum clean flattened, Dented the rim and blew the back tire on the right side. my buddy pulled me out of the clump of trees, because I was afraid to use my winch with alll of the gas that was leasking out. when we got it out I was so mad, I yanked on the handlebars and straightened them into position. I turned the machine over, and I rode it up the same hill (with 3 tires) out to where my buddy could get his truck in to hault it home. The sad thing is that it occured with only about 9 miles of riding and about 1 hr or so of usage. and well the rear rack is still misssing in action......

I was checking out your pics, and I was wondering if that was the hill you were coming down, or the steep hill on the left that comes down to that road???

Once again glad to hear everyone was ok, and there is just one more reason you never ride alone!!!

i agree with BlackRaptor, photo #4 kinda gives it a cool sport quad look! LOL!

hope everyone is healing ok.

lick your wounds, get another quad, and be more careful! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
