How do you say no when someone ask to ride your quad ? I don't mean to be selfish or anything. I just know from experience that people don't respect your stuff. I'll let some people ride that I know that will take it easy. I look at some of the ATVs that my buddies ride. They are all busted up, bent handle bars, busted plastic, bent wheels etc. When they ask to ride one of our ATVs, what do I say without causing any hard feelings? Anyone have this problem? What do you say?

 

While staring at their quad just say "I don't think so" [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

Ha Ha HA! I actually laughed out loud when I read that. That was good!

 

I just tell people that no one rides my quad except me... On special occasions I'll let a couple of my buddies take a ride on it..... But they respect my stuff when the ride it..

 

NO! is the best one for me. Another one would be "The motor isnt running too good right now and i dont wanna have to blame you if something happens to it". Another one that i use often "Give me a $2000 deposit and you can ride it". no one rides my bike except for me, my brother, and if u have a bike and i see that you are a very good rider i might consider it.

 

Most of the time I say NO!, then with a grin on my face say look at your quad i wouldnt trust you with my shoe.

 

I trusted a certin friend with my stuff and now I have no trust in him. I left my quad over at his house because there wasnt a good spot for it at my house. He ended up gernading something in the clutch which got metal shards all in the tranny and crank. Thats the last time I put trust in some one...

Moral of the story : Friends dont let friends drive their quad

I got a freind that I let ride mine becasue he lets me ride his shee. We've known each other for a looong time. I trust him very much thats the only way I let someone ride my quad. I've known him for about 6 years so. You can get the idea.

 

I recently took my friend out riding. he rides 2 wheel bikes. He asked me if he could ride my shee, I said sure. Next thing I know I see some guy tumbling down a hill…yeah it was my friend, he rolled bike all the way down the hill, bike was in shop for two weeks…..I didn’t make him pay for it…friends since 1st grade we are 30 yr old now…still buds, but next time someone asks I would say NO…

 

no, you got ur own ride and i have to pay for everyting that might go wrong on this thing so no sorry.
