just wondering how many have had the upper motor mount break and then the frame or am i the only one 2005 500 vinson manual shift

 

nope...got a 2005 Vinny 5-speed that I have ridden to hell and back 3 times, and the mounts and frame are stout as ever...if anything it needs new shocks from all the beating from three trips to the Paiute Trail, several places in Tennessee, and of course the thrashing in the east Texas mudholes. I have a AC 650 TRV for times when I have to take the GF along, but I still love my Vinson

now I don't know your ATV's history, but the first thing I did was get full armor for everything before I did any other mods, even before I got the pipe and filter. The frame has never taken a hit, just the armor.

Do you do a lot of jumping?

 

I have an 02 Vinson that I ride the Texas mudholes with, been to Tennessee and Arkansas, pull trees with and no problems

 

very seldom do i ever jump but i did roll it about 10 times once down a hill and it broke the frame in several places but i have replaced the upper motor mount and welded the frame back together been a year or so since anything had broke on it but just last week i had to replace the upper motor mount again but all in all i love this machine its been through hell and back several times and has never let me down
what parts of tn do youj ride i go to callantee several times a year

 

Been to Coal Creek, which was great.

Went to Land between the Lakes, which was also fun

Went up to Royal Blue, but couldn't find the park entry, and then learned that they charge double for out of state riders anyway...screw that!
