Wow...........I predict a rash of engines blowing up because of people not getting the advice of using $15 dollar a quart oil.

Guess I will have to enjoy my belt drive pig.

 

I'm a sport rider....not really sure if I'm a redneck or not..... I don't like to ride big Utes either, but I don't care if others want to.

My ONLY problem with people who might be termed "Ute Rednecks" are the ones that ride around with no helmets, in shorts and sneakers, with a beer in one hand and a Marlboro in the other. I don't see many in my little riding world but I hate to hear/see them in stupid videos crashing and getting hurt....makes all ATVers look stupid... but that seems to be a very small number of Ute riders.....and those people are not often "riders" as much as they are people just "riding" ......

A lot of my friends ride big Utes....I don't bash them for it... I just ride with them the same way I ride with my sport riding buddies.... we are all out there in the dirt riding.

I think Recon rubs people the wrong way because he's so opinionated. That's not always a bad thing........sometimes however it can cloud your ability to remain objective....

 

How many times do you think recon has come back and read his farewell thread?

 

Hopefully none. I'm sure it would be pretty depressing for him.

 

I've been here for a long time, like recon. I haven't necessarily agreed with him over the years, but any time you lose somebody with so many years of atv experience and knowledge, the forum suffers, irregardless of what a few vindictive people think.

Varied opinions are what makes a board interesting.

 

I agree with ya Lotus, well except for the "irregardless" part. I'd go with "regardless of what a few vindictive people think". : )

 

lol, thanks man

 

Brand loyalty and enthusiasm is one thing, arrogance and intolerance is something entirely different.

I just hope the door didn't hit him in the butt on the way out...

 

This thread is still going, you guys must miss reconranger. LOL

 

Some of his old threads have been popping up too. Maybe he just has a new screen name, lol
