And you will end up traveling more than 1 inch while rubbing asphalt..... ....even at just 25 mph.

I always at least wear a jacket.. (that has armor at shoulder and elbows)

I should get some better pants, though.. for street riding, I have been just wearing jeans..

Yeah, I will get something better for street..

I still have my 1-piece leather but it wouldn't be practical to wear that all the time, especially on the street.. !

If you stall it 3x at take off, you are probably not ready for the bike yet.. very predictable result..



lmao... I took it super easy my first time out on a quad so I didn't end up embedded in a tree.

Would love to have a bike though, but drivers around here are too crazy. I'll stick to the trails.

Hey LB, how about a quad for your next purchase?

Im not going to brag on my bike skills but..... I know better than that. Lol I would of at least tried a parking lot first.

Usually when I ride I have a jacket, helmet and boots. Honestly that video made my day. I knew there was a reason why I started off on a 250..


Exactly. My first time out on the quad, it was insanely hot. Very humid too. Now, riding in shorts and a t-shirt would have been a lot cooler, but even as a new rider I knew better. Since I didn't have the proper atv attire, I made do with gardening gloves, a zip up hoodie, and heavy denim jeans. No boots, but I did have skate shoes which are a little bit more durable than ordinary shoes. (Helmet and goggles go without saying.)

I forget the engine size of that quad, but it was a very forgiving Polaris with an automatic transmission. My biggest enemy that day was section 204.

My plate vibrates, but it isn't from the engine or exhaust.

"speakerbox vibrate the tag, make it sound like aluminum cans in a bag"
