One more question what do you guys think of the Z400? I'm really thinking about selling my warrior and stepping up to a z400. I have rode a kawi400, and i liked everything about it. Dont want orange so thats why i picked z400. The only thing i'm wondering about the z400 is it high geared in 1st and 2nd (like a raptor) or more of a low geared like a warrior? The reason i ask is because i do alot of trail riding and like the low geared on the trails but like high geared at dunes. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Hey everyone, I have an idea I want to see if anybody would be interested in. Capital forest trails close on the 31st, so I was thinking about getting a group ride together on the 30th, to make a large loop through the forest. I was thinking about stageing at rock candy trail head, heading south on north rim #1 to Porter creak, take that to mount molly loop to waddell, then going on the waddell loop, back to north rim #1 and back to rock candy. I figured we could stage a truck at waddell, with a grill, coolers with food, and gas, and take a break their for awile, before heading to rock candy.

What do you all think?


Also, who is going to the poker run this weekend, to ride?

Thanks

Last summer, a bunch of happy-go-lucky Yamaha ATV'ers were spending the day racing up the famous Boxcar hill at the even more famous Oregon Dunes Recreation Area. This was not a game for the weak or the timid, this was a contest of big horsepower and even bigger egos. Suddenly, out of the rotting Salmon stenched fog, a solitary rider approached. It was obvious that he intended to teach us the definition of eye-watering acceleration. I noted that this somber rider, clad in mismatched sneakers, open-faced helmet and welding gloves, was mounted on a grey and black steed that bore the famous logo of a company that knew how to build automatics, watercraft and snowmobiles. He wasn't here to play. So, as we revved our motors, he lined up and took his place amongst the legends of ATV'ing, yes, the Banshees, the Raptors, the YFZ450's and even a random Breeze or two. Thumbs twitched, wrists turned, engines snarled and the contest began. Out of the corner of my eye, I tried to catch a glimps of this formidable looking foe. But, he was nowhere to be seen. As I looked farther back, I could see the desperate rider prompting his gray steed for all it had, but alas, there was no more to give. Being the staunch supporters of ATV'ing that we are, we yelled ecouragements. There could be heard shouts of "Is that all you got?", "Try another gear!", "How 'bout a tow strap?" and "You're kiddin'-right?" reverberating throughout the dunes. As we awaited his arrival, he silently peeled away, dejected and humiliated. His back slumped in shame, much akin to that of an spineless invertibrate (squid), and the sobbing came next. We could hear him stifle a cry of "Oh god, 60 more payments". The last image we saw, as he faded into the fog, was the sticker on his plastic that said........PREDATOR.
