fqmx ramps

im thinking about making one cause my buddy can weld and we prolly can scrounge up some metal to make one so i just want to see some of your plans,ramps and what ratio it is for a quad to make one. pictures of dirt ones are welcome to, thanks.;)

[meankfx]

check out the freestyle forum all kinds of stuff in there

[buck440]

i went in there, but i mainly want pictures of the finished product, kinda like this one, and i herd that it was like 1ft up per 2 ft out or 1ft up per 3ft out or somthing, i'd ask in there but its dead in the freestyle forum. and i wanted pictures of the dirt landings.

haha that was my first ramp, was well built not far from right, it was too abrupt at the bottom, ill post some newer pics later.

[buck440]

cool, i saw it on here and just used it as an example. would you know if you can use angle iron to make the ramp with, if so how much

[Rootar]

no you cant use angle iron, i have no idea with the price of steel these days but you need to use 2x2 14 guage for the frame work and #9 RAISED expanded metal not rolled for the surface, if your gonna make any kind of investment in a ramp its better to build it right from the begining.

here is a shot of my setup a few months back

shot of my buddy barton hittin git up close on his first day....

[buck440]

few questions, how much for just the materials? how bad does it make your backend go up when you hit it? im wanting to make a simuler setup, what gear you in?

[Rootar]

i have no idea on material cost these days..... and it doesnt make your rearend come up unless you make a continous curve ramp, if you leave the last 18inches flat for your final angle itll throw you nice and level.

what gear im in doesnt really pertain to you because i can clear 55 feet on my hybrid in 2nd gear, barely make 55 on my 400ex in third, dave's yfz yesterday was bangning out in 2nd gear just to clear 30 feet, that all depends on your bike and ramp.

thanks :)

[truerider411]

what ramp is this one? is this one from fmxramps.com or home made? It looks pretty decent and we are starting to build one so if any body knows whos this is that would help me a ton also any recommendations on changes to the ramp would be sweet. I am this close to just buying the rev 3. plans.
