I live in Colorado Springs CO. Never cared to much for 3 wheels as I have had some bad experiences but non the less they are cool to look at esp the old 250r Honda's. My Brother used to have a 250r race 4 wheeler back in the day. Miss that bike other than getting it started [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Well a buddy of mine has a 2007 SE edition YFZ and this guy is a VERY hard rider.... he literally kills everything he owns ....cars.....trucks.....mowers....... anything......

And he has been killing his YFZ now for two years and a lot of stuff has broken but nothing major like frame/engine/suspension has failed.... he is not very routine with maintenance either so if the engine did blow up no one would even blame the quad........ but it seems tough as nails......

Yesterday he blew the endcap right off his FMF exhaust (no on knows how) but repacked, and he blew out the front break line (no one knows how) but today and was back out on the trails wide open.....

So I would say they are pretty tough and reliable....
