when i hit the tree i fliped over the hndel bars kinda did a handstand(why my hands hurt) and fell on my back and the atv slid to a stop about 2in next to my head(my helmet has found about 100 yrds away in the woods)

 

the tree that i hit barly had a scratch on it!! then again it was a pretty big oak

 

Strap your helmet, work at that "local race track" of yours and appreciate and RESPECT machinery... Just cuz it can go fast doesnt mean you are ready for it to go fast.....[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]

 

??? what. first my helmeat has straped on, the strap broke. and the reason i crashed as because i had balding stock tires. and i can drive fast. the rancher is slow 49 is tops. i can hit that on my yfz in 3rd gear

 

and you just joined the site. how do you know how i ride this is only your 3rd post!!!

 

Just cuz I dont post doesnt mean I havent read about your style man.. I mean Im sorry for offending you. I didnt mean it like that, I'm glad you're ok. I have a friend that was paralyzed from wrecking in a race. and his helmet stayed on! I just cant imagine breaking the strap off a helmet without dislocating your jaw or something. Especially going less then 49... Sorry bro good luck tho...

 

yeah i have no idea how it came off but when i staggered to my feet i relized that i had no helmet. after i called my mom to come down the road with the trailor i went lookin for it and i found it in the woods with the strap torn. and the helmet asn't even a month old i got it for christmas. i think i didn't have it tightend enouigh since i had a big jacket on.

 

WOW! Dude that looks nasty, was it insured , by the sounds of it no. Well thats gonna cost more than what your mom will cover ! Keep working dude![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]

 

no it is not insured

 

dude u call that balding tires i toke a second look at yur pics and u had plenty of tread left and 49 isnt realli that slow a car hitting a tree at dat speed can b deadly and r u sure yur yfz can go 49 in 3rd cuz im not realli sure if u can shift outta first..............



then again yur rich so u dont realli no wat baldin tires r u lose lik couple cm of tread and think of new tire time just sell the damn 4x4 and use dat money to get yur "wish list" which should b edited to ice screws helmet w/ heavy duty strap full body armor for u and yur quad ummmm A BRAIN o and possiby a safty course............... what do u guyz think?
