I am looking for a 20'-24' enclosed pull trailer for my atv's. Color doesn't really matter, but it has to have a rear ramp. I would like it to be 8' wide on the inside. If anyone knows of one these for sale in the Northwest, drop me a PM. I would prefer to buy a decent shape used one if I could.... Thanks, Dan

I've got a buddy that saves me the card board center from a cash register receipt tape, then a little epoxy in the one end, fill with triple F black powder, and slide in a fuse, add a little more epoxy, and you've got a homemade M-80 of sorts. Overall the are about 3" long and about 3/4" wide and make a hell of a bang. Also you can cut the top off of a small C02 cartridge, after it's empty, just down far enough to create a small hole into the body of the cartridge, fill with powder, insert fuse, seal , and you have a small hand grenade. DO NOT USE THIS ONE AROUND OTHERS since there is a tendency for shrapnal. great for fishing though. Be careful, Be Safe

Well, I just got back from St. Anthony's today, and all I can say is that it's FREAK'IN AWESOME We got there Saturday Morning and didn't even set-up camp, we immediately headed to the sand. It took a little tuning to get the bikes running right, we had to drop 4 jet sizes , and could of posibly gone down 1 more but I would rather run a little rich than burn up something. We played on several of the smaller dunes to get the feel for the sand, and it is definitely different than the sand on the coast, It's more powdery. The razor backs backs are another thing. I don't think that anyone on the coast even knows what a razor back is. We are talking dunes with a point at the top. We spent Sunday and Monday exploring the rest of the dunes, We found Thunder Mountain, and Choke Cherry, and they are incredible dunes well worth their reputation.My first trip up Choke Cherry and I let off like I would at the coast, and ended up burying it only 3 feet from the top, but after that I cleared the hill every attempt. Thunder Mountain is an awesome dune to side hill on as wel as drag race up. You can ride the ridge for almost 1/4 of a mile as you peer over the other side of the dune. The Bowls are absolutely Huge. There are huge serpent like trails leading from one bowl to the next, up the face of one dune, back down, then up the face of another. We headed to Yellowstone Tuesday and Wednesday. We did the tourist thing on the way to Yellowstone on Thursday morning. We got there mid afternoon just as an impressive thunderstorm was brewing. We were sitting on the boardwalk around Old Faithful waiting for it to do it;s thing and watching the storm in the hills, when all of the sudden LIGHTNING hit the boardwalk about 150 feet from where we were sittiing with our friends. I guess no one was directly hit by the lightning but 11 people were injured due to there close proximity of the strike. Park rangers immediately evacuated everyone off of the boardwalk, and then we left. Talk about being scared as Hell. I packed up the family and beat feet to the truck, ducking our heads the entire way and headed down the hill towards Jackson Wyoming. The wives spent Wednesday am Shopping then we headed to back around to Idaho, only after we stopped at a little town Called Alpine Junction. The wife spent her money on clothes, and I spent my money on Fireworks. There are a couple of awesome little firework shops. They have everything you can imagine wether you want to blowing something up on the ground or 500' in the air. Now I can't wait for the 4th of july if not sooner...LOL We got back to the Trailers on Wednesday Evening just in time for an intense Microburst that dumped some intense hail and rain and dam near ripped off my awning. We got up thursday Morning and went out for a short ride before we loaded up to head home, and the rain from the night before made for some incredible traction. It was a terrific trip, and I would highly recommend checking out these dunes if anyone wants for some great riding and overal fun. Also, besure to check out Egin lake, It's a great spot to cool off in the afternoon.. Overall 2 thumbs up I will post some pics when I get them developed and scanned in

Thanks for the tips.. I was wondering about bringing extra gas. My Dad is going along and will be on a utility quad. I realize that fuel consumption depends on the riding, and bike, but is that something that I really need to think about, especially for the far hils such as Choke Cherry??

The reason for running 2 different size of jets is because the Raptor/grizzly engine has a 5 valve head on it, 3 for intake and 2 for exhaust. Now the reason for the different size of jets is because 1 of the carbs feeds 2 intake ports while the other carb feeds only 1 intake port. I helped my buddy tune in his bike after he went with the Looney Tunes exhaust, and had to eat crow because he told me the carbs took 2 diferent size jets and I called him a liar. Guess my passion for Shee's clouded my judgement. Oh Well, I'm still faster then him..LOL Wish I could be more help as to the size of jets......

Parting out the Banshee (CR500 Banshee)

Just wanted to say that you definitely need to be on the good guy sellers list. I just got home, and sitting on my porch are this awsome set of A-arms. I got them installed, and just need to dial in my alignment. My only complaint is that you wrap things like my wife, 10 pounds of newspaper, and 17 rolls of tape...LOL J/K They were well packaged, and just wanted to say thanks, and I will enjoy the hell out of them !!!!! -

Nothing worse than having to hit the porta john at about 3 o'clock on a hot afternoon when it's had all day to stir up quit a stench not to mention it's your own personal sauna. You come out drenched in sweat looking like you just gave birth to Shamu out of your a$$!!!! -
I don't have any to trade, but the best price that Ihave found is at SMI Motorsports

I was looking at those or the Sidi force SRS boots. I thyink I am going to give the Gaerne Boots a try. they look thinner in the shifting area on the foot like a traditional riding boot

I just recently ordered a pair of the ARC MX220v riding boots from Rockymountain and I'm sending them back.... I originally ordered a size 11 and they were too small. I sent them back and got a pair of size 12. They fit, but are as uncomfortable as hell. I think they molded it for someone with a club foot or something, the arch was in the wrong place, and it pinched my little toes really bad. I know it's the boots because I have a pretty average foot and can go into most shoe stores and 90% of shoes off of the shelf fit just fine. There is also a definite issue with the overall height in the toe area. while I was trying them on, I sat on the shee to see how they would work if they did have proper fit, and this was horrible as well. I had to rotate my ankle so far forward to fit under the shifter, that it just wasn't practical. I lined them up with my old alpinstars, and noticed there's about an 1 1/2" difference in overall height to the top of the shifting reinforcemnet on the boots. I did like the fact that they had the ankle pivot point, but overall they felt like trying to wear a pair of moon bots that my parents bought me for the snow when I was 10. In my opinion these boots get 2 thumbs down... and this pair is headed back to rockymountain...............

need help picking a rc truck
dnhyoung replied to chronicwatson's topic in General Banshee Discussion
I've got a couple of buddies that say the Revo is the way to go. Like "." said they way out perform the others. They said that they started with the t-max and the s-maxx, and quickly jumped up to the Revo. I'm seriously impressed with some of the Shit they can climb over with those things, and especially the availability of after market parts you can get for them. Kind of like the after market parts for a shee , if you can think of it, someone makes it. -
Yes, they are talking about the utility Models

I just sold my 2000 Xr650R. Wish I didn't have to part with it, but with a start of a family ya know. Anyways, I absolutely loved it. I had the Honda hop up kit and a FMF power core 4 exhaust. It absolutely kick ass. If I remember correctly it started out around 47 Ponies, and with the hop up kit and exhaust it added 12-15 hp for an awesome 60/62 HP, and let me tell you they were all stacked at the bottom. That thing had more low end grunt than a John Deer Tractor. Don't get me wrong there was still lots left on top as well. The fastest I had her was 94 on my GPS on the beach. A great bike!!!!

My thoughts exactly!!

I don't think that this statement is totally true. Why would someone want to pay $6000.00 for a new bike that you need to go and invest another $2-3000 to make it a decent machine, when you can go out and spend $3-5000for a bike that has the basic work done,(piped, welded crank, Cool head, extra tires) Hell that's what I did a when I got mine, I looked for what had the most invested in it and that was going to need the least to have to clean it up. I think it's has more to do ith tax time, and also the fact that people are going to more 4 strokes.
