i was so happy today. i got my new swingarm in because i sapped my frist one on and when i went to go put it on i realized that the threads to hold the final drive were stripped. there goes another $250 into the quad... i really cant stand this quad anymore

Deal with it, quads... you replace one part, then another part goes bad..

stop your whining......

you've modded your 250 out the a-hole. you've simply spent tooo much on your quad when you coulda saved up for a 400 or something.

Speaking of jumping 250EX's off of 200ft. cliffs...... Did any of you guys see fear factor??? If you couldn't tell, thats what they did.

yea, I saw fear factor. I wish I could have a shot at that stunt. Those guys barely got any speed.

Speaking of 250ex's those quads looked like hey could still go after that 200 foot drop.

Same here I beat the S*** out of mine and all thats broke is a little clamp that holds the airbox.Wich wasn't a big deal i just welded it back on. You must have a lemon or something.thats just part of having motercycles.ive spent around a thousand dollaars the last year on my timberwolf.the rear end and axle was 650.00.

you can put a automatic clutch in nuetral by slightly lifting on the shift lever, it puts it in between gears so you can rev it in nuetral and you just drop the shift lever.
