Default Advice For All Dirt Bike Owners...

I just thought id share this with you, if you crash alot and your grips are always getting holes in the ends of them, before you stall new ones, put a NICKEL inside and glu it in there and then put your grips on so you wont eventually have holes on the end of your grips


peace,

Its the edges of the bars that rip up your grips, so if you fill in hole it dosn't get torn up by the edge.

no on the place where you put the grips, most of the time on the edge of the grips there will be a hole and eventually it will rip your whole grip, take it off and put a nicke or quarter in there and put the grips back on and it will save u from ruining your grips


i said dirt bikes because i didnt think quads had very many like that

yes ive got some advice, dont set the gas on reserve when going for a long ride! because when you run out of gas, youre REALLY out of gas, and you dont have a reserve left... its no fun pushing a quad for 3 miles...

also, dont get this quad... OMG who wouldnt atelast clean their quad b4 selling it?!?!?!? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...ayphotohosting
