I rolled my quad about a month ago and my wrist has been hurting like no other, went to the doc. today and found out i got it broken for sure. SO, since i keep hurting my self, i may need to sell both my toys soon. I blow my knee and got two screws in it and now i do my hand real bad in my wrist area. I really don't want to, but i am shipping off for basic traning in 3 months and need cash for a car:(

what ur opion?

Don't sell the quad, you'll miss it. Think of when you get back, it will be waiting for you and you'll love riding even more than before you left.

You gotta do what you gotta do sometimes. Too bad the quads got to go but hopefully you will get back in to it someday.

Thats almost as bad as giving up becuase your not good at it. Just learn to ride safer. You will miss the quad if you sell it. Who needs a car these days?

Just to let u know that i am one of the best riders around this area!! And once i come back from my basic training, i may be moving to go to collage and need another set of wheels. I got 160,000 miles of my 91 probe LX with a 3.0 engine.

I'm not a 100% sure on what i want to do just yet. I got a 400ex and a 87 250 i was restoring to deal with here.

Well you asked for opinons, so here's mine. Sell the fourhundred, and keep the 250 (assuming its a four wheeler). Restore the 250 and ride it while your home on leave. youll get more for a running 400 than for a 250 that needs to be finished. JMO

my advice would be keep one of them. i broke my wrist before and they take a while to heal i think i spent 2 or 3 months off my quad. it was a pain like no other in my wrist. it felt like a grape fruit was inside growing and putting pressure outward it was all purple and everytime i tried to grab something a major nerve would pinch and deadin my whole arm plus if u looked at my wrist form the bottom u could see the bones moving when i tried to grab my handle bars to get home. i could never wish that kind of thing on my worst enemy the bad thing was i never quite went to the doctors and just pulled it out a little and let it heal by itself and now if i move it a certain way that nerve gets pinched and its a wake up call:( just keep one at least u went to eht Doc's so it will heal faster. dont let an injury get u down. oh yeah and this pic is funny but very tru

Keep the quads. I've got both my hips replaced(titanium :macho ) and the doc said not to ride anymore but if I can still kick the banshee over then I'm still going riding.
