Slack, if you submerge your 4wheeler to that snorkel's potential, wouldn't you be swimming?
I think you're talking about my snorkel. Yea I'd be swimming. It was on there when I bought it used, so Im not going to remove it

I do love getting paid to ride quads for my work. As a land surveyor, I work in a lot of remote places and it would be a lot less fun without the quads. Right now I'm working on a 27mi stretch of power lines that go from Union Point, Ga to Warrenton, Ga. The land that the power line goes through is 90% hunting clubs, so needless to say I've been wearing a lot of orange the last few weeks.
Ha, I can imagine! My hunting club is on the other side of I-20 from there, in White Plains and we actually have property on the buried gas line out there

Yeah, I'm 23 geeze.... Pic is from 3 years ago.

I used to be more into quads(did flat track and large and small dirt tracks, worked at a moto shop for 2 1/2 years), but 3 motorsport hobbies is just too expensive.
I still love quads and dirtbikes though.

Hopefully your GF will learn to enjoy her quad, they are so much fun.

Quads are fun though! My raptor got totaled from the wreck, but I have an old warrior that could suffice until something new comes along. I still need to get another helmet - mine is cracked in half.

Winchester bay or Florence?

Got my wife an early xmas gift this weekend.
Mine is full time 4x4 and with the aggressive tires it is very hard to steer.
This one is selectable 2x4 or 4x4 so it is much easier. She likes it.

I had to go out and start up my 06 KFX400 last weekend to make sure it was ready for some snow-play... only if mother nature would cooperate!

We went for a ride Saturday night behind my house. We built a mud pit over the summer where a large tree blew down and left a big hole. Used an excavator to make it wider/deeper and it is finally getting really good.

That guy isn't scared! North Face down jacket and a cell phone in the mud pit! Looks like fun!

Not very smart to take an electronic shifting bike through that deep of water. I have the same bike (and a Rincon 650)... so I know the perils of the deep muck and electronics.

I love how people on ATV's think no helmet riding is safe cause they have 4 tires.

That looks like fun but I'd still never take my bike into something that deep! The chances of killing your bike vs. the fun factor arent worth it

True. It started making a horrible screeching/grinding noise right after that trip through the mud pit.

I can't wait to throw a winch on my Wolverine!

Is it me/the picture or did you roll that sucker? Those handle bars are looking a little bent...
