Puget Sound/Seattle/Northwest Area Riders Meet HERE!!!

You do great on the trails where you practice a lot - you know the conditions, your quad and you have reasonable skill [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] .
Now give others their due where they excell! Don't be a hypocrite [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img] They have skills too - its NOT all quad - I've watched a skilled rider make tree shots on a beginner quad that doesn't have half your power and he didn't need 4wd either
Besides I don't see you saying "well, he has only been on a trail one time and has a sporty.." when you are bragging about winching whoever out.
Can't we all just get along? Good grief and good night

I had a blast on the 660 I rode my Rancher for 1 day and it sucked monkey *****. As far as jumping ride my 600lb quad and I will ride your 400ex and we will see the differance [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] The Dunes is all about the quad, the is really no way around it. My quad kinda sucks so the dunes suck to me. The trails is my playground [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I'm gonna have to go ahead and disagree with ya there partner. If you are drag racing maybe if you are hill climbing not as much but for jumping and dune trails, my 400ex with 20 something horsepower smoked my friend's Banshee and Lt-450. OK OK but i really did out jump them.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Bring your rancher to the dunes then. Rancher's not made for the dunes? That's about the same as a rancher beating a sporty on the trails.

As that machine is right now, I would test ride it, then park it on some bar stools in the garage majal and strip it down. Send the frame to the blasters and inspect the frame for deficiancies. After the frame was 100% tip top lolly pop, I'd choose a new color, and a Yamaha XS650 bullet to scoot me down the road. (parts are everywhere)
Old school is cool, if it is SAFE, and one can FIND PARTS for the contraption.

LMK if your interested [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] the 10" ones have been used 1 hr on the sand they were brand new, the others a few times but in great shape!! There are 2 paris on yammi rims(blaster & something else?) the others won't be on rims, I can take ALL off rims if needed [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
