Cool quad, and welcome to the site! Just a note though, any pictures (In motion) without a helmet will be deleted, so try and post up some pictures that you have wearing a helmet;)

Yea that would be kool. I haven't gone in a while now cuz my buddy I ride with never has time and I don't wanna go by myself ya noe? I only bought the bike b/c he bought one and I thought it would be kool to go ride together. Yea we went like 4 times. I am thinkin about selling the thing.

Oh and I do have gear to ride with. That was just in front of my house when I was learning how to do wheelies. I always ride with a helmet, goggles, boots and pants.

I ride in regular boots and jeans sometimes. But I always have gloves and a helmet on.

I rolled my 400ex 2 weeks ago down a very large rocky hill. Helmet saved me from some serious injury. You never know what can happen.

ALWAYS wear a helmet.

I usually wear MX boots tho. Most people say they can't shift with them but I swear I can hardly shift without them. Plus I can hug my quad tight and my leg doesn't get hot.

I wouldn't sell it. Go out to some of the local hot spots and I am sure you can meet some new guys to ride with.

I couldn't agree more. I fractured my eye socket once and now have a fancy piece of titanium in my face. :huh It was terrible but I'm lucky I didn't loose my eye. All I was suppose to be doing was pulling a quad around to load on a trailer. All it takes is a tiny lapse in your otherwise good judgment and a little bit of bad luck...

Thats what I use. I got some Brazos work boots from Academy Sports for like $20 and I just wear jeans and a t-shirt. I always wear my helmet and gloves too. Goggles are a must where I ride tho b/c its so dusty.
