    Definitely not a GOD! If I were then I'd be RICH! And all the good people in the world would be rich too. And no kids would have to suffer, and all land would be open to ride quads/dirtibikes/etc... on. LOL Seriously though, I just try to help people out from my findings and my mishaps on dealing with the YFZ. There are others that give the same helpful advice just the same. That's what makes this forum a great place to find information .
    If it'll run... I'm ridin'!!!

    Checked mine and its been 3 years. Not sure if previous owner checked though. It was clean only a few small pieces but not as bad as most.

    First time I have ever been made aware of the request.

    The Mods dont read every thread, a simple pm to me on day 1 would have had this a sticky.

    I thought I had PM'ed you a few years back about it and then recently I Pm'ed the Administrator hoping to get some attention.

    Either way, thanks a ton Pappy!
