You don't find to many Predators up here. See the ute's all the time though[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Was at the dealership today, some very nice new ones[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
I have never ridden a predator or many quads for that matter. But I did spend the weekend at Gordons Well with TPR and Webopper back in Jan. Webopper has a predator and I was very impressed with it. It looked pretty stable with him riding it and ran real strong. It definitely looked the part and it has fox shocks on it. No way any of the shocks offered by the jap quads can work that good.

Come on it's not THAT cold. Been real weird this year. So mild until it hits March and THEN we get freezing temps, rain, etc. WTHell is the deal? March is supposed to be the nice time of the year! A little ice on the truck at 5am today. Nothing the windshield wipers and washer fluid didn't take care of in a minute.

If it's broke as in Brokeback Mtn no, I'm not "broke." But if you look at the bank account... LOL. I've just been here watching. Haven't had much to say I guess. I save my p!ssing people off posts for CATVW. Evidentally someone doesn't like me. LOL I guess I have all this knowledge and need to do something with it. But I guess educating people isn't one. Considering that came from a teacher...

Came in a little early today. Have to get a job done today to overnight out so they can submit tomorrow. It was supposed to have gone in a week ago. But considering they didn't even finalize, and get it RIGHT, the utility building (Elec & Mech (boiler, water treatment, etc.) rooms) until yesterday... We gave them CLEAR information, including a drawing WITH DIMENSIONS of how big the Elec Rm needed to be. They made it too small and door would have been 1/4 covered by the main switchgear. In the famous words of that evil Bart's dad, "DOH!"

The Preds are nice. Only thing that could be an issue is they are REALLY wide. They can't make it around the gates at Miami without 1/2 the bike being up on the wood baracades. Though being that wide, they can usually straddle the ruts...err canyons...easier. When/if (HAH!) I get another bike I've thought about a Pred. since they now have reverse.

Speaking of Miami, probably won't be able to get up there for a month with this last blizard that just blew threw. LJ got what 7". And he's 1500-2000' below Miami. Last weekend they had chain controls at the casino which is right at 2000'.

It's been a strange winter here as well. Of course, wait 5-minutes and the weather will change.

Yor telling us[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] You should be used to some snow[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] Us on the other hand, usually drive at least an hour to see even a hint of snow.

When I decided to get another quad, I looked at the Predator, nice bike[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Just couldn't find a used one around here. If I had found one, I would of seriously considered it.

Your not kidding about the canyons up in Miami[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]
