Hope you were able to straighten them out.

That's why I won't put nerfs on mine, most of the time it's trail rides and the nerfs would just get in the way.

I know what you mean, last week I came around a turn wide open in 4th it was a bigger turn then I thought and I was starting to drift off the trail so I down shifted when I did the rear end swung around and my back left tire became paralell with a tree then hit it. My ex rolled over and threw me off, I got lucky all I had was a few scratches and my quad was fine.

i went out trail blazing one weekend with atreyu. He ran over a tree and it cut his gas line on his trailblazer. So he did the only thing he could do, he went back and cr@ped on the tree...true story. Luckly one of our friends had a quad and was able to tow him back. THe only thing bad about that was that it was a quadrunner160......that thing was pullin huge wheelies tryin to tow the tb.

well i have had my fare share of incidents with trees mainly with my old blaster just learning to ride but one time i was following some friends through trails that i didnt know and we all went through a little mud/stream and some how i managed to find the only stump in the whole stream and almost went over the bars and bent my dg bumper and on top of that i the bumper got stuck on top of the stump and i couldnt get of i had to wait till my friends turned around and noticed i was gone and came back for me. took all three of us to get it off
