"First off I would like
to thank, ATVriders.com, everyone who voted for
me, and Blingstar for Sponsoring Quad of the Month.
I bought this bike race ready planning on saving
some money. But about 4 or 5 months after owning
it, everything had either broken or I didn't like
it and ended up replacing it. So the only original
thing left is the A-arms. So, over the winter
I have attempted to build a flawless bike that
will last through the whole race season. My shocks
were redone by Maultech ATV, Powder coating work
and frame Gusseting by BK Performance, New Tranny
was installed, New pipe, Nerf bars, bumper, clutches,
chain and sprockets, bearing carrier, it has a
TC National built head, I also put in a New BMS
14:1 piston, Tag hooked me up with some new bars
and steering stem, every bearing and nearly every
bolt was replaced to keep the quad in tip-top
shape. The bike led me to a District 17 Quad B
class Championship in 2005. Right now I am competing
in Quad A class for 2006, looking for another
championship. I have not finished any lower than
4th place so far this season.
I would like to thank my Sponsors for the 2006
Season: Nac's racing, K&K ATV, Lonestar, RPM,
EVS, Tag Metals, IMS, Quadtech ATV, French Construction,
Bowman Flooring, and My Mom and Dad. I would also
like to thank Doug Bowman for the countless hours
he has put into tuning my bike, and all the motor
work he has done for me, and Thanks to my family
friend Doug Murphy for helping with expenses.
There is no way I would be at the level I am today
without these people...Thank You"
