Man i saw pictures of that hillclimb and its soooooooooo small is there any bigger climbs. Iam thinkin about goin up ill have to check with my folks to see if i can go. My 400ex can do that thing in 1st gear lol.

[Kilabanshee]

are quads alot to do that climb because all the pics i saw were guys on bikes doing it.

[Kilabanshee]

Do you know the address to that climb i looked on the site and i didnot see any could someone help me out.

[timewass]

That hill is not that small. You would be surprised how many people come back down. It's not loose at all it's all hardpack. Directions to the hill (http://www.digitaliway.com/hillclimb/eventinfo/directions.htm) I've made it, but I know people who are much better riders than I and they didn't. It just depends. I think half of it is just luck out of the gate. Oh... and quads do the climb too. Look at the stats page on beaverdalehillclimb.com (http://www.beaverdalehillclimb.com)

that hill is not small... i've been tehre b4 and alot of quads and bikes never make it... one of the biggest hills i've seen... watch huevos 3 its on there;)

[Kilabanshee]

I saw the hill it looks very long but it doesnot look steep at all from any of those pictures ive seen. I think iam going to that the owner of eastcoastatv might be taking me up there. Him and my teacher r best friends and gets us hook ups on parts. Hes got an lt-500 with a suzuki gsxr1100 motor in it. Check it out eastcoastatv.com

[Kilabanshee]

I think it might be but i havnot really looked at it up close i think thats it though. ran thr 1/4 mile in a 10.5

[Kilabanshee]

Nope i think its a dirrent one becuase i looked at his on eastcoastatv.com and it looked totally differenct but the engine looks the same and the body but the fenders are new and shiney also hes got flat track tires on all 4 rims.

Here is a stock wheelbased 440EX in the "pit" ready to give it a go. BTW, he has been riding since he was 3yrs old. He is now 16. He is a good rider.

Well, that should hold ya for a while, I will resize and uplaod some more to my server and post some later in the week. Enjoy, and those of you that live close enough, you should really come out and give it a try. I think the next climb is June1. Check their site to be sure.

I would try the climb on my 400ex i got a stock swingarm and i think i could probobly make it up. If i canot make it up all the way will dudes come to help me like in that picture? Ive done hillclimbs which look alot steeper then that but arenot any were near as long

[timewass]

most 400's there have stock swing arms

Yes, there are always guys on the hill to help ya get turned around, or they use a hook (and rope) to pull you over the top.

[Kilabanshee]

cool ill defenatly give it a try sometime soon probobly next month ill have my nos set up for my 400ex. Ahhhhhhhhhh the power of nos. Iam hoooken up a skeaky pete nitrous system that flows right into my carburator snorkel and is goin to give my some nice power for drags and climbs.

[Dustin178]

hahahaha if u say that hill isnt small wats wrong with u ive climbed bigger hills then that out at the quarry close to where i live and ppl that come back down on that hill must not b very good riders at all. well whoever goes to that good luck lol if ya need i might go up if i can or at least go up sometime well ttyl

[Tommy 17]

i'd love to see both of u climb that hill... i've been there many times in person and i've seen many quads come back down it...

it is ALOT steeper then it looks in those pictures...

[Dustin178]

o so it is steeper then it looks. from the pics it dont look bad at all but yea now i think bout it stuff looks easier from pics then it is but i dunno the hills out at the quarry r pretty high and steep but i dunno i might go up sometime well whoever is climbin it good luck

[bansheeguy77]

dont talk **** until u can back it up...

amen mike...


these guyz have no clue what this hills like... u can barly walk up it!!!:o

that hill is like 300ft long to the white line and then it has extra after that to slow the bikes down some... i'm pretty sure it is 300ft...

the angle is extremly steep also...

yes i know of hills around here that are steeper but no hill is nearly as long as it...

[Dustin178]

hey guys i didnt realize that hill was that big from the pics it didnt look that big it looked a hell of a ways up there but it didnt look real steep i didnt mean to talk s**t bout its just didnt look that steep. there at the quarry we ride in sometimes they have steep steep hills that arnt really that high i mean they got some but i didnt go up them lol well ill ttyl

[Kilabanshee]

Damn i just watched huevos 3 and was watchin those quads go up that hillblimb. I saw a very easy route which i think almost any quad can make it up. On the left side of the mountain/climb it seems to be alot flater and not as step. I saw that banshee that did a whellie at the top and didnot make it up in the video and all i can say is holy ***** because that quad got really messed up. If i donot make it dudes throw ropes on me so i can go back down right? Maybe soon as i get my 440 kit and my other mods ill definatly fly up it with ease.

[Dustin178]

hey u just seen huevos 3 its good but when u c huevos 4 u wont wanna watch 3 any more cuz its so much better i cant wait to watch 5 :D but anyways on huevos 4 they have a real bad *** hill climb one guy was on a banshee made it to the top but it jumped a lil and there must have been a lip b4 the top or somethin and he hit some dirt while in the air with the back tires and it completly just flipped him all around u should check it out its awsome

[Kilabanshee]

was that in huevos 3 because that what i was talkin about. This banshee got really ****** up about 3,000 in damadge.

[Dustin178]

if its the one im thinkin bout its the one that almost gets to the top then it comes all the way back down and everyone is tryin to stop it but they cant i think thats the one yer talkin bout the one im talkin bout is on huevos 4 it goes over the top but as it is the front end is in the air and i think the power band kicks in hard or somethin and it starts to jump but it catches some more dirt and he completly flips it and it goes up over the top of the hill

[Dirt]

Hmm how long is your swing arm?

[Dirt]

oh Boy thats gonna hurt

[Kilabanshee]

Its a stock swingarm but even if i canot make it up iam sure iam not goin to roll down cause ill probobly bail to the side or somethin. They should make the pit alot longer so u can ge some speed.

Then EVERYONE could make it!
This separates the :macho MEN(WOMEN) form the boys(girls)........BTW I am still a boy :o :(

[Kilabanshee]

yeah i have some mad balls all try anything just as long as i see something of less power or somethin make it up before me.

Mad balls??? You either got em or you don't. That's like saying "I'll take you out in the street and kick your arse as soon as I see you beat up that pencil neck over there." :huh

If you're not willing to risk it all, no sense turning the key.

[Kilabanshee]

Hey iam willin got rick it but damn i hope they catch me with those ropes if i donot. I saw the aftermath of that banshee that didnot make it up in huevos 3 and i was like damnnnnnnnnnnnn. Soon as i get some more of the mods that i got on my list ill be sure to give it a try. Iam very good at hillclimbs and will try almost anything just as long as its not life threating :blah .

[SpeedBump]

Ohtsu Radials :D That is more than one word....but ya get the drift. I have seen many quads try the hill with different tires, and the choice of the guys makin it.....Ohtsu Radial.

[kwatts400]

That Suzuki belongs to Butch Biesecker, he owns b&b enterprises in Bear, DE. He does all the work on my r. I've not ridden with him yet, but I hear its a hell of an experience.
