She's damn nice, and damn fast too. Only a 250, but hey, it's my first one. I didn't want to kill myself, plus, I didn't have $2000 more for the 400. Now for some paddle tires... =)

Pics are around 200k each.

Wow! Hey, you can tie your lawnmower behind that thing and tow it around your lawn as if you have one of those ride on mowers. You'll be the envy of the neighborhood!

It was pretty filthy yesterday after I got done with it. Took it through a muddy apple orchard. Aside from the obvious mud everywhere, there was rotten applesauce all over the place. Pretty nasty...

In all honesty, I thought about getting a bike before I got my quad. But with my history of things with two wheels, I decided I'd better stick with four on the floor. Let's jsut say, I've spent many an evening in the ER due to bike crahses.

Yeah, watch out - those things flip easily. I know someone who has a friend who broke his back on one that flipped.

I had planned on it, but my damn insurance company wants $560 a year for full coverage. That's a pretty big chunk of change for a quad. My truck doesnt even cost that much a year.

That should give you a hint about how "safe" they are.

Yup, and consider that if you had only one accident per year it would probably cost more than the $560/year insurance to fix the quad and pay the medical bills.

at least you don't have a motorcycle, the insurance on that will make your arse hurt from bending over.
