Post your quad pics

club car man · Aug 14, 2006

Well, We have a 1999 450 Foreman ES which is the best quad I've ever seen. Never let us down and I just put the 3,800 mile on it today. Never had to touch the engine. I had to order swingarm bearings for it the other day and they should be here tomorrow. That's somethin I'm not lookin forward to.

Then we have a 2002 300EX. This thing also has been BEAT to death. Goes 70 MPH and runs like new. The only thing that I have a problem with it is it goes through axle bearings like crazy. Those should be here tomorrow too and another thing I gotta put in.

Show us your quad.

Here is my workhorse jr.

Use it to spray w/25 gal rack tank, pull a 57" acreease mower, tool carrier, haul rocks out in a trailer that hooks behond it, and have lots of fun with it. It will go anywhere I can sty on it and is a rel frunt.

Not to try to bash other atv's or get into a mine is better than yours discussion, this machine has done verthing I have ever asked from it and then some.

Did I mention it will get from point A to B in a hurry too?

I did upgrade my tires, pipe, and jetting or some addl loxer end grunt.

I like the way the Grizzleys look. Have you had any problems with yours? I've heard that people were havin some problems with them. Those new Grizzleys sound like they're nice. And all the magazines seem to like the power steering. They say it acts as dampner which I think would be REALLY nice for when you catch a rock or somethin. Feels like you break your wrist when that happens.

This is the only pic I have at work of my 05 Grizzly. It shows the nifty fuel can carrier that I built for it. I rode about 100 miles with this fuel carrier. It performed well and I almost forgot it was there.

Hey, that's a good idea. How many miles can you go with a full tank of gas? I went ridin on Saturday and went 72 miles on a tank of gas. But I was on reserve.

That sounds about right. I go about 80 miles before I switch on the reserve. At that point, I add the extra 1.25 gallons in the little can.

The trails in West Virginia have a town at the end of the trail and you can get gas or parts. But that thing you made looks good and sure it comes in handy.

Club Car Man, are you in West Virginia ? Me and my posse are head'n down to the Browning Fork trail head the last weekend in August.

No, I live in PA. But every summer we go down to WV to go on the HatField McCoy trails. We usually go down 10 times a summer. But with the way gas has been, we didn't go there this year.

Not yet, only had it a year or so. Suzuki running gear, 4 spd manual trans and 4x4 with low range. Crawls right along and pulls fence like nobody's business. Have an Uncle that imports them, so I thought I'd try one and see what it could do. I'm 6'4", and about 200# amd can get in the cab. It gets a little chilly in the winter up here, so it's nice to have a warm ride 2.5 miles to the mailbox in the snow.

What size engine is in it? It looks like it would be alot of fun to go offroading in or just ridin around the neighborhood. I have 4 golfcarts and they're fun for doin that in.

those are really nice can you post some pictures of it in action and does you uncle sell them or just ship them in to the dealers.

I guess the new Grizzlies are nice - but personally there is not enough difference between a 660 (mine) and a 700 to make me want to trade. The 660 will run 60-65 mph and that's way faster than I need to be going

I haven't seen one of the new 700's yet, but would think power steering might be nice, or it could also just be something else to go wrong while out on the trail. I would much rather have seen Yamaha introduce a 1000cc grizz instead of offering power steering.

The 660 has had a few issues since intro, but I think these have been resolved. There are also many aftermarket goodies available for the existing Grizz. Time will tell on the new 700

I added heavier springs on mine to help when carrying the 25 gal sprayer, as well as to help stiffen the ride when haulin' for fun. I can also just get off and lift the front and rear end if it ever gets high centered - try that with your UTV
