That's why I ended up buying a sport bike, too. After I bought my first quad, a utility, I went riding with a bunch of sport riders. There was no way I was going to keep up. A week later, I went out and bought a sport bike. Now I have both.

 

Not where we go sometimes. We hard a hard time lastweek in 4wd much less 2wd.

 

If you arent afraid to buy good skids and bang them up, you can get almost anywhere a 4x4 goes (mud is another story). But I have bounced a few sport quads over some nasty rocky trails faster than some 4x4's. Go have fun

 

When I ride with my slow utility friends [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] they learn real fast how FAR back they need to be when MudStud hits the mud cuz its a throttle and fling time [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

Of course they should ride together.

I feel better about trying a scary puddle or chute if a brutus 4x4 with a winch is backing me up.

 

I went riding today with a guy that had a 400ex and we had a great time. I couldn't quite hit the whoops as fast, but who likes whoops anyway? We had a blast. I also snowboard with skiers...its all about your attitude...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Hillclimbing in pits, I see Kodiaks climbing hills that Banshees are climbing, also, woods riding the more diversity the merrier. When riding in groups, for the most fun, diversity in rides is key.

 

Where we ride everyone rides together the sports fly in the flats and simple trails but us 4x4s catch them when the going gets tough.As for sports in mud and rough stuff it is more rider than machine.

 

Good thinking FMFBeartracker on the Fox gear. Then ALL of the outsiders will know that its JUST the dirtbike population with such a poor sense of style...... ROFL [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

Rough trail riding will tear your quad up much faster than say dune riding. But hell, I guess you didn't buy it to park it or take it easy.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
