This will be the location for this summers WORCS race in Idaho. Its Clay Peak in Payette Idaho...http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid85/p6698531de13a70d6ed718cbf680ebe2d/fac822c7.jpg

ITs steeper than it appears http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid85/p9d4f8059b94fa3d140d28d24c6509903/fac815fc.jpg

[seatec]

i have this ingrained fear of steep hills that are long. I am fearfull for my quad , not myself. I have visions of my quad tumbling down the hill disintegrating.

i wish i lived where you live right now. it looks so fun there

[450rboy]

wow. mostly all the hills i climb they are made by nature except like the strip jobs and mining places. a lot of the hills that i climb are also so short and steep. they ain't long. well there are some hills around here are are steep and long. but most of them are short and steep. and some are long but not real steep but some are ruff and its fun.

[Moded86R]

I love to hillclimb.I really like to hill climb on my 400ex.So far one I have failed once on it.My 300ex on the hand has failed many times.


This past weekend I was down at st joe state park in missouri.Way back in the woods there is some pretty good hillclimbs.So I got a pretty good run at it.But you had to dodge tree's.I was in 2nd and as soon as I let off the gas my bike died.(for some reason I kill my 400ex way more than any other bike I have had)So now I half way up a hill you can't even walk up.I have tree's all around me.And when you get off the bike basicly your going to slide down the hill.I tried turning the bike around by using a tree to keep me from sliding.But it didn't work.


So I did the only thing I could do.I let the bike roll backwards down the hill and flipped over backwards.It bent my bars a little bit.At the bottom of the hill there was a biggo peice of back plastic for a yellow 400ex right next to where my bike was.I guess I wasn't the only one that failed.Next time we go down there I am going to make it though.

quadjunkie - on your signature you left off your brand of grips and tire nozzles you use, and the kitchen sink.

[03400EX_Nacs]

umm... people that don't like seeing their prized possessions tumbling back down the hill? It wasn't a rhetorical question was it? You really wanted an answer? I only hill climb because if rider11x goes up it, then I have to. Do I like it? Nope. Do I feel a sense of accomplishment when I make it up? Sort of. Better than the alternative... But he won't follow me over a 30 foot jump... it's all in what we like to do. Yes, I have time to kill, that's why I'm blabbing on senselessly... I'll stop now... :rolleyes:

[spud400ex]

i think hill climbing is the funnest thing. look up the thread called "rubber side up" in trail tales forum by o3le if you want to see why he doesnt hill climb anymore. the funnest hill climbing is at the sand dunes, cuase if you roll your quad it wont be as bad for you or the quad.

[450rboy]

well hill climbing might be dangerours but it runs through my vain's. it gets me going every time i do it. if i do roll my 4 wheeler and don't make the kill and brake something on my 4 wheeler. it makes me want to get up it more. if i don't make it i will do it till get it. even if i do have a part time job and have to wait to make money and buy parts i brake. i will do it all my life and never stop.

whos with me on that

[03400EX_Nacs]

i back you up a 110% 450r

Im going to be checking out something in a few months to try.... Some might laugh but I think THIS is a good idea !!!

[QuadJunkies]

Or this.........

Haven't seen any chick climb a hill... yet! :devil:

I'm not thrilled about heights either... never thought about that, maybe that's why I don't like hill-climbs! Nah... I'm just a sissy! :o

LOL I feel the same way, about giong up huge hills, if I HAVE to I will but man I really HATE coming down them, last time I went down a nasty hill I was on my Kodiak & my brother says "come on sister you can do it" mind you he's on a motorcycle:rolleyes: well needless to say I COULDN'T do it LOL the kodiak & myself went tumbling end over end oh about 3-4 times:eek: it landed on top of me & my hubby was on the top of the hill going oh shnit!! I jsut yelled "get it off of me" haha I was ok but the sad thing is wwhen I got my arse back on it I was sitting on my coat & tried to get it out from unde me & friggin rolled it again:o :o :o Needless to say I was done for the day when we got back to the truck!! Haha those good ol days hehehe Hell I would probably try anything w/ my 300 though nowadays!

haha! We'll share it then... ;)

yeah, I haev a little too much money tied up in the LT to watch it tumble back down... I've watched many of my quads do that, I got quite good at getting outta the way! :p There was actually one I did last year that rider11x didn't want to do first... not real big, just loose ash pile, and I wanted to see what the LRD motor would do on a hill climb. It was quite satisfying flying up it, then watching rider11x expression go to oh sh*t, now I gotta do it! hehe... :devil: Only one I know he wouldn't do was a short climb, but it had rocks sticking out near the top, and when you come over the top, you had about ten feet to stop! I flew up it, jumped the rocks, came over the top airborne, soon as I landed stomped the brakes sliding it sideways to a stop. Looking calmly at him I said "Your turn"! He said no f*cking way!! Meanwhile my heart was pounding! :eek2:

[WhiteBros400ex]

I like hill climbing but if i wreck bad, iw ont have the money to fix my quad and it will be broke for a while cause they get trashed rolling down hills buts its lots of fun to watch.

[member]

i think in hill climb contests they should have like a winch tied to the front bumper that rolls up as you go up but doesnt pull on the quad any, just as insurance

[brian-250]

im thinkin now......................................wheres the pain killer!:D

I dont think they have a winch that can pull fast enough, it wouldnt work, think of a crotchrocket motor in a quad frame with a winch trying to pull all of the "rope" in as that thing comes screamin at 100

[brian-250]

have it in netral and it could roll up as they go but when ya get in truoble it kicks on:huh

i couldnt be a hill climber because if my quad starts flippin....imma cry like a baby...i watched my friend try and attempt a snowy hill climb which is hella steep no 1 can barly make it up it in the dry weather...much less snow...i warned him he was like stfu im going up this hilll....well he got to the top and got his front wheels on flat land...then the bike started spinning...it dug down past the snow and caught dirt....slung the bike back down the hill, smashed his head lights, his plastic, and bent his steering stem....i think he wanted me to grab the frontend of the bike when it got to the top....but if it started to flip back...my arse wont going along with it.....but being an idiot doesnt pay off...hill climbing and snow or mud dont mix....OIL and Water

[WickedRider]

thtas all i use to do until i discovered the sand. i went out thursday w/ my friends. one has a 400 & the other a blaster they were trying to make it up a hill only 400's, preds, & shees make it up. i made it up 3 times. i started way back & hit the hill 4th pin. ill get a pic of it next time i go out. the last time i went up i missed a shift at the top. i made it back down the hill, only after falling & flipping the quad a couple of times down the hill . not alot of damage to the quad, some scratched plasrics & broken spirit.

When I was at St. Joes the end of Oct. I climbed a little hill that had most of a 400EX plastic at the bottom. Maybe it was the same hill. There were several trees like you are talking. It was about 45-50 feet tall. Approx 60degree angle. I would not have attempted it on my R because it was kinda rough, but my Rancher climbes soooooo much better. Something about a 4X4 utility on hills that can't be beat.

Every time I post in a hillclimb thread some dumb @$$ flames me about saying utilities climb better. To anyone even thinking that a sport quad climbs better all I have to say is try hills on a 4X4 Ranche 1 time and you will undestand, and will not be as ignorant about what you say climbs better anymore.:mad: :mad: :mad:

whos with me on that

I'm with you 200% on this one. Hills have been in my blood since I was on a 3 wheeler at age 8.
NOTHING CAN BEAT THE RUSH YOU GET FROM HILL CLIMBING!!!!!!

[450rboy]

i can't wait till i get some more pics. i will put them all on here and there pretty hard core. by looking at all the pictures every one else posted. they look so easy for some reason but i don't because i never tryed them. the reason i say this is because the hills that i climb and my brother there so hard because you don't get a big run for the big ones and some you do. most of the hills that we climb are old strip jobs. the reason it so hard out here pennsylvania to get a run for a long hill is because of all the trees. but all the trees are good for cross country racing in the woods. hills is like the best thing ever. if i show you these pictures. you will now what i mean. a lot of the hills we climb are shell rock amd it also makes it hard.


thank you bye

utilitys do climp better lol they dont flip ove backards as easy

hey if a utility 4 wheeler is better at climbing and lets say it does flip just this one time and it rolls on to you. your gonna be in a lot of pain. and also if it is pined on you. you won't be able to get that thing off because it is so heavy. so that is more dangours. and lets say if a sport 4 wheeler like a z400 is on yea. your gonna a better chance of getting that off you.

one other thing. i got a warrior and i mostly made it for power. and the good thing about it is. the front end on a warrior is real heavy. so thats one reason i picked my warrior.

thank you bye

i usually wouldnt just sit on the quad if it rolled over, and have you ever used a utility to climb with?

[450rboy]

hey warriors are good for hill climbing it just takes a lot of money to get about 42 hp coming out of your motor then it works good. like mine it close to pushing 40hp.

yea i have hill climb with a utility 4 wheeler and they work great for it to i am just saying its more dangours doing it with one. and it scared me the first time i did it with my uncles. and i mostly never did any more hill climbing with it after that. and my uncle wasn't to happy with me after that happened but he still lets me ride it when i am there.

so that is one reason i got a warrior. because the front end is heavy on them and they are good for hill climbing like mine.

when i get my pictures of my 4 wheeler on here one day. you will see how much money i put in to it. and what ever it was like when i first got it. and put a little money into it. then i kept and kept puting more into it untill i saw the new 450r so i am gonna sell mine for at least $4000 ........or $3000 if i want to sell it fast

thanks bye

I learned very young how to get the F### ot of the way hen they take a tumble. If you do not know how to get out of the way you have NO BUSINESS TRYING TO CLIMB. Occasionaly there will be a time that you can not get out of the way, but 99% of the time IF you are smart you can get out of the way.

yea now this guy is right

[TCracin440ex]

450rboy...i bet i got a hill climb here that you wont attempt.....you dont evne get a running start...the hill is bout 150yrds straight up about a 75degree angle...and you have to start out in a creek...

[jaspurx]

Hillclimbing is a lot of fun. that is a real pure scource of adrenaline! but sometimes you screw up and pay the price.
right marc?

[jaspurx]

also , trivia here , if you saw the hillclimb portion of huevos 3 , I live less than 1 hr. away from that hillclimb.
man do I want it bad!
need a turbo on my ex though!

i might not but i could i never know. there are some hills around where i live can't climb either every time. some i havn't even made them up yet. i would like to try it maybe. it depends on what i doing with my 4 wheeler and what money i got at the time so i can fix it fast. has any ever climbed that hill

usually when i am hill climbing i put on my 12 tooth sprocket and i found a 17 tooth sprocket on ebay and got one of those for dragin

and there another thing i change is my tires. i put my 18 inchers on hill climbing and my 22 inchers on for dragin. but with that 17 tooth sprocket i got it works great if you got a lot of power coming out of your warrior. but if you put it on a stock warrior the and you put it up against a stock warrior. you will lose because you got to have lots of power.

these are just little things you can do to make your 4 wheeler or a draginster

[300exryder]

I'm located in CT. For sandhills and the like I use my Raptor, for every other hill my Bombardier Traxxter will rule. It has AWD and is unstoppable in hardpack hillclimbing. My 300ex was fun but I outgrew it quickly, especially since my first quad was a Warrior, which is a much better climber (front end weighs a ton). The Raptor needs to be kissed on the front bumper when climbing, otherwise you are going over backwards. The power on a Raptor is unbelievable :)

see he even thinks the warriors front ends are heavy. i know that because i got one snd it has lots of power with it. so that helps me out with my hill climbing

[450rboy]

can any one tell me how the yfz450s do at hill climbing.

does any one has like hill climbing quad that they use for competion that has like 60hp. i would love to do that one day but i probably won't because i like my 4 wheeler just the way it is.

[300exryder]

It is in Bristol, CT. Drop me a PM or something and I'll tell you a little about it. Definitely one of the best places to ride - and I've tried. (Just ask the DEP and the police :cool: :) )

i have been to Iron Vally to race just for the fun of it but i like cross country racing better. but i have been to rochester mills and marion center. but i have been out there only a few times. i mostly go to rossiter, dora, around punxsy, brookville, or any place i can get to.

i live out side of punxsy. i won't probably won't go to rochester mills or marion center because it is winter and i don't really go that far in the winter. or lest there are a lot of people riding then i will. but i got to put my new cluch kit in to my 4 wheeler because the last one sliped on my so i got some new stuff for it.

i am not sure yet if i am gonna sell my 4 wheeler or trade in on one of the new 450r's. so it probably won't be close till summer until i start to ride with one of the new 450r's. becuase if i order one. i will probably have to wait a while till like the end of spring to get it.

so if you want to say something to me post a reply on here.

Yes sometimes you do screw up and pay the price, but you gota pay to play.

[jaspurx]

But , the thrill of climbing a hill for the first time , or a really tough hill, or better yet , a hill nobody else has ever climbed is sooo great!
not to mention the thrill ofclimbing a hill that you have seen people fail to climb is cool also.

Sure sometimes you pay for the play , but normally It is not so bad.
But them there was a goof on big murph......... right marc?
that one is still fresh!

BTW... you're not the guy who tumbled his 400 back down the hill, are you? :eek2: I winced everytime it went end over end... :eek:

[jaspurx]

NO , I am the guy that made it , and turned around at the top and started down , dropped a front tire into the rut , and then rolled it all the way down!
One stupid little error after success!
It is still a little splinter in my pride!
Now , every time I climb murph , it is like revenge!
Real sweet!
lol

And if I remember correctly, that was the second time you went up it! You had it stopped when it turned on it's side, I started to run to help you when it took off and I said oh chit! It looked nasty, but at least you were ok. I told marc if I hadn't just discovered a crack in the frame of my LT, I would've tried it... yeah right! :p

[nofear911]

450rboy,
If you want to go hillclimbin some time in New Bethlehem, pm me. My bike will be done in about a month or so.

[jaspurx]

My p.c. is so cheesy it will not let me see the download , cheap piece of whatever.
I really wanted to see it too.

lt and raptorider:
it was like watching huevos 3`s hillclimb portion , I felt like the guy with the banshee.lol

yes , I have paid for my play more than 1 time!
back in the day , I hillclimbed on a trike!

You can go from a trike to a quad easier than going back!
I learned that one...lol

[jaspurx]

Yup , that was me alright....lol
I was so close to salvation , but was too tired I guess , it was real slippy with all the mud up there.
I payed for that play , she`s still not 100% yet. handling is still off.
Now when I go to murph I go for the SATISFACTION ! every time..lol
ve gotta get together w/marc of course , maybe a couple others , guaranteed entertainment one way or the other..lol!
