Unless you sucked water into the airbox and possibly into the intake you should be fine with a good pressure cleaning.:chinese:


That looked like it was really fun though...:blah:

Ya i was trying to yesterday but came flying around a turn my buddy was right on my tail on 450r and i didnt wanna lock up brakes and have him slam me and hurt both the quads so i just took one for the team i guess. I didnt think it was gonna be that deep i hit it and came to a dead stop it sucked but gave everybody somethin to talk about for rest of day lol.

Make sure you clean your brakes really good. You may even want to pull the caliper off the bracket and spray water between the pads and make sure there isn't dirt or grit stuck between the pads and rotor wearing them out faster than normal.

yeah i usually ride there a few times a year, any more than that it gets a little boring. do they have the gate open yet? it was closed the last time i went, which almost cuts the riding area in half

Lol, I went to Brushy Ridge awhile back and had a blast until I broke my leg after I wrecked on that tabletop on their little race track they have after doing some indian air's.
Here's a vid of me clearing the only jump that a quad could clear out there: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5huEpsIbBbc
Here's a vid of me doing a couple Indian Air's, I wrecked the jump after this vid ended: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bXNLvwPNx40

It's a nice park, not any very challenging atv trails, but it was fun. There where some insane hill climbs for some dirt bikes right in the parking lot though.
