    i have an 03 arctic cat 500. nothing special. don;t use it very much anymore, other than plowing the driveway. got 27" mudlites, winch, brushguard. it is a manual tranny, none of this fluffy automatic stuff. it crawls through some mud though.

    BCM outing at

    My girlfriend has an 01 Blaster that we totally scammed some clown on, lol.......

    I'm representing the Old School, 1986 Suzuki Quadracer 250.

    We are running out of places to ride now with hunting/winter coming. Last weekend we were up in Harrison Hills, Lincoln County. Its ok, can get real rocky. I really like the Embarrass River ATV park by Tigerton, Shawano County. Not alot of miles of trails but they have 2 motocross tracks, and I like jumping.

    This weekend we're hoping to head down by Neillsville, the Bunkhouse Retreat. Supposed to be 500+ miles of trails and lots of other stuff to do.

    Edited: I forgot to add her daughter's ride, its an 88 Yamaha Moto 4 200cc. Looking for a kids one for her son.

    It depends on what kind of machine you want?

    Something for trails really. It wouldn't be used all that often either. I don't need to get all hard core.

    A lotta good deals cause people have to get rid of their toys. It's a good thing and bad thing.

    I would probably decide on budget first, then look for a machine to fit.

    I agree with badass88gt on this , what's your price range?


    If you look on craigslist there are some real good deals right now....I would say it would take about 700 - 800 bux to get a decent Yamaha Blaster...of course if you can afford more the deals get even better???


    The one guy on here had the 03 LTZ 400 Zuki that was fuggin nice and with extras for only 2 grand , that's a very nice machine for that price....

    I guess I didn't know how much they even went for. I'd think 'd have around $1000 to spend. But I'm "thrifty" so if I can get something that is still good for less I'm all for it.

    I have seen ATV's in your price range....Those Yamaha Blasters are REALLY NICE machines in your price range?


    I have a modded to sheet 2000 Blaster that I will probably sell off at some point to finance the YFZ 450 mods I want to do.....I really don't need 4 quads so selling the Blaster to make 3 quads is acceptable I guess?

    We don't ride anymore. I sold our machines, trailer and all, and picked up an 03 Bayou 250 to bum around the cabin with. All the good trails were too far away and it sucked looking at that much $$ just sitting there in the garage 95% of their lives.

    We bought a boat and got far more use out of that this summer...

    We use our 03 Grizzly 660 to its fullest potential. Not so much to plow with anymore but we move boats in and out of storage, for transportation, and sometimes just to fart around in the woods. I have only been "trail" riding with it once and really found no interest.
