Miss this place and riding...

[WhiteYFZ]

For those who have been around for a while you'd recognize my user name. I sold my quad over 2 years ago now, hoping to buy it back at the end of the school year, i miss riding so much and want to get back into it.

you should deff buy your old quad back i remember when you were first building it. it turned out great. but i did the same thing i got out of the sport got into fast street toys for about 2 years but it just doesn't cut it compared to flying through the air.

[WhiteYFZ]

[bbender85]

that YFZ is gorgeous!! you cant beat color matched plastics and frame with one other theme color all tied together with graphics.

hey guys!!! Nice bikes!!!!! I honestly would never sell my quad for a car... No offense to low riders or VW or cars in general, but a quad is way cooler IMO. It just becomes a lifestyle, when you think about it 24/7, dream it, breathe it, would hold of a steak dinner to finish that one last thing, then you know its an addiction!!

[426kidz]

One of the nicest bikes I have ver seen nice YFZ. you better get her back!!!!:mad: :mad:

I know exactly what your saying . New jersey is just a horrible place to ride quads in . Only legal places are expensive and to many rules . Kinda takes the fun out of it . Most of these legal places closed down as well ya know

yeah used to live on a 360 acre farm, but it got sold... we inherited about 50 acres from the will and i am finishing fencing right now. You ever tried building the entire fence by yourself?? Its tuff work... not to mention there was 5 inches of snow on the ground. lol if you guys are ever out my way in mid-missouri let me know!! More than welcome to come hit the track i am building!!!

[CJM]

Yes ive fenced before, are you using barbed wired and stretching it-btdt it sucks..

[miller821]

I remember the build up thread on that YFZ... One of the sexiest i've ever seen. Weren't you into BMX too?

[trailrider894]

Yep, its about 700yds of fence. I tore up 500yds of fence by myself and then moved it. Yes it is barbed wire.

for sure... I still have to hang one gate... set 700yds of the barbwire after setting the cattle fence and still have a 200yd stretch to do of cattle fence. Its a soupy mess... in the grass i sink 3 inches.

Looking forward to seeing that white YFZ back at the Proving Grounds !!! Alot of people get out of the sport for short periods, but when atving is in your blood - you can't stay away forever !!

ha ha my mind did change slightly, my atv got covered up for an old 1979 Chevy Monza Spyder. But the ATV has once again taken control of my life. lol

[WhiteYFZ]

yea mean250r i remember riding with you, i dont remember you crashing tho lol and yeah i was into bmx also, ride every now and then but usually working on my car or powder coating :cool:

[MX MaNiAc 06]

Hope you can get it back! That yfz is sharp man.

I have been out of it for awhile too. In the past year or so ive been so busy with other stuff that when i get time to ride im real rusty :ermm: Hopefully come spring ill get my speed back!

cars become an addiction too... i haven't sold my quad, but most of my money heads in a different direction now.

yeah... cars are cool, but i've been in fast cars since i was little so i just don't get a rush from cars like i do ATV's. I have a Muscle car that weighs 2800 pounds with 350hp. It screams, but its just not the same.

[tri5ron]

Not trying to hijack the thread, but is anyone here interested in a REAL racing engine ?
I've got a Chevy 350 with less than an hour of runtime, that came out of my buddies stock car.
600 HP, and over 8500 rpm, on a 2 barrel carbed, (even has a restrictor plate under the carb), naturally aspirated, stock exhaust manifold, smallblock.
This thing is litterly Nuckin' Futs !, and not for the faint of heart.

long story as to how It came to be mine, but the short story is,...

my buddy, a professional mechanic, was going to go racing, built the engine and car, then unexpectedly died from a brain tumor, before the car made it to the track.
It's fully spec'd, and is sitting on a stand in my garage.

It's basically, a brand new, $20,000 race engine, ready to go,...
(I wouldn't really consider it to be "Streetable", unless you like being the target of every cop in town)

I'll take $5000 obo for it.
if seriously interested, pm me with your email and phone #, and we'll talk.
