quadzillas are sick, they are scary fast and will keep up or beat most atv's out there
with minor mods like jetting and exhaust you can break a lot of hearts

Also i was reading up on the 87's with the head 6 bolts how common is the leak? Is there any fix besides getting different jug and head? Can it be avoided by just replacing the head gasket once a season? thanks in advanced [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

i just helped my buddy rebuild his. so hes been doing as lot of reading up on these bikes. from what i here the 250r was the better made/built bike than the 500. but the 500 is still a sweet machine. another friend of mine ownes a 500. he had a 250r, and said he would rather still have it... i dont own neithr, but have been on both, from my experience you cant go wrong with either one.

mod for mod, stock for stock, there is no other bike that will touch a zilla. but its a handful in the woods, and that's why theres the 250.
