i was trying to adjust my chain the wrong way and one of the bolts that holds the caliper on was hitting the swingarm. i was wondering why it wouldnt turn anymore, so i used the "bigger hammer" theory and just really forced it.. cracking my lsr carrier..

well i didnt want to be called a "little girl" anymore so i tired out jumping this cliff thats a 10 ft inclined then 5ft straight up, i mean 90 degress here. di it twice it was so fun, then next time i went to the park did it once...cool, did it twice ended up sliding off the 12ft cliff on the left side after i landed and guess what came down from 12ft after my body, a 400lb quad lol. Story ends with me puting him into the wall j/k n that part but how it really ended was me being basically paralyzed from the waist down for a week, then after that i was able to limp around while holding onto something and actually move my legs and toes.

brand new plastics, 2 weeks later rolled it backwards down a steap hill with jaged peices of cement hangin out of it. ripped my seat, and bent my steering stem, amd also somehow got a 6 inch spike to protrude all the way therw a band new holeshot mxr 6 rear tire.

then, a week later while fixin it up, i had it standin up on end to get to the stem, and i dropped my socket, and as i bent over to pick it up, the quad fell on me.

im starting to think this quad wants me dead.

worst iv done always involves air box. first, didnt tighten filter clamp and it came off. road all day in wet conditions and sucked up tons of dirt. (lucky me nothing happened)
second, after washing out air box i forgot to drain it and sucked water into intake (again lucky me) happened years ago and i sure learned my lessons

well, on one side of my driveway, theres an uphill, and on the other side, theres a downhill.

I parked my quad at the top of the driveway to mow my lawn.
Stupid me, i forgot to put it in gear and it disapeared.

It fell off the downhill side, and hit a tree. We had to pull it out with a truck. Amazingly, nothing was even scratched!!
