Building Another FMX Ramp Woooo Wooooo

[Wired]

on my second ramp. this one is going to be 10x better then the first one. the radius kicks @ss and looks smooth from top to bottom. just got the 2 sides done lastnight and hope to have the cross members on by tonight. just have to wait for my sheet metal and expanded metal and she'll be ready to hit. one problem though... i sold my EX yesturday and its long gone! so now i gotta wait for a new quad too :blah: here's the pics

nice, im wanting a full size ramp so bad im looking at the motoxschool wooden ramp plans and might build it over christmas but id love to have a metal rev.1 and i like yours too what sort of metal are the side rails made out of cause square tubing costs so damn much:grr: any ways nice ramp i cant wait to see some pics of you hittin it.

[flyin#5]

looks kick@ss! you back at home i take it? get some pics when its done:)

[Wired]

the side square tubing is 2x2 1/16 thick, and the main rails are 1x2 rectangal tubing 1/8 thick. we had a metal roller so we made the rails by rolling it, no cutting or welding needed :devil:

yup im home for about another week or two possibly

[hessianmx111]

cool would you happen to have any plans for that if you do if you could post them id greatly appreciate it

[Wired]

well we got 3 polaris sleds, a polaris ranger and always had polaris 4 wheelers when i was younger. i personally like polaris so did my brother so he went ahead and got my dad the banner for christmas :blah:

[Black400]

My ramp is almost done but i have a question did the roller kinda crush the metal when you rolled it? When we rolled my stell it kinda crushed it. The sides are bulged out alittle. Looking good though:devil: And what happened to your kfx? Is it in cali?

[Wired]

when we rolled it, it didnt crush it at all. we rolled it slightly twice. worked out pretty dang good!

the kfx is sitting in wes's garage right now as will my other new quad in a few days:eek2:

[Glow Plug]

haha your going to have more quads than you can count soon arn't ya wired lol, congrats on the new yzf. Were still waiting for those pictures of the kfx you know lol.

[MILF_HUNTER]

word.
8 feet wide looks pretty comfy. u makin it from scratch or do you have some outlines.

[Wired]

sorta by scratch. i got alot of input from some friends of mine and looked at alot of pictures for the supports. the rev3 seems to have good supports so thats where i got it from. the angle pretty much came from itself when we took it out of the iron roller. it just went alot smoother then the first one.

[Ryan]

Looks really good! Is this gonna be taller then your first ramp?

[Rip_Tear]

Wired if you don't mind can you tell me on this specific ramp how much did you spend in material, or just a total of material (or both) just for an idea of cost. Thanks

The ramp looks real good, how hard was it to get the bends the same? and proper?

[Wired]

bending the rails wasnt very hard, just took alot of people to do it. the total i have going into this ramp when its all said and done is 700 bucks. thats including the expanded metal and sheet metal for the surface.

[Narly R]

Hey man looks good!;) How long and tall is that?

[300extreme#8]

could you take a pic of your 4wheeler or just a 4wheeler beside it.i would like to see how big it is to a 4wheeler,looks sweet.it looks wide enough for a monster truck,hahahahalol

[Wired]

its 8'6 tall, 8 feet wide, and 22 feet long. i sold my EX a few days ago so i dont have a quad to put up next to it.

[Narly R]

Thanks man, how well if ya dont mind (sorry for all the questions..), how tall was the ramp on wheels on H5? Was that yours? I ust wanna make a ramp and Im still open to ideas, so I want somthin around 8 feet... anything you would tell someone to doiffernt on it, then you did?


Thanks man! And this is my 2000th post!:)

[MILF_HUNTER]

if you want to make a ramp go to fmxramps.com and use the rev1. info. its free, a good beginner ramp, and fairly detailed. :) :macho

the ramp in H5 was 8 feet tall and is wes miller's ramp. yea use milf's idea, the rev 1 is pretty good beginner ramp and they have fairly simple directions on how to make it.

[Narly R]

Ok thanks for the info guys!;)

[Dan_Guetter]
