I know it's not a kawasaki, yamaha, suzuki, or ktm. what is this thing?

That's one of those China knock offs of a Honda or Yamaha.....I heard the knock off brand ATV's break stuff pretty often and they are REALLY hard to find parts for....

How old is your son ? I was just wondering to figure what size bike or ATV would be a good fit for him....

**badass88gt** · 04-04-2009, 07:15 AM

In my experience the chinese ones havent been difficult at all to find parts for. Anything you need is available online.

Would I buy one? Probably not, unless the price is really cheap.

**u_say_go** · 04-04-2009, 05:13 PM

there's a shop in west bend that just opened up, they sell all the knock-off bikes. Stopped there today to check them out- they have atvs, dirt bikes, scooters and even some street bikes that look a lot like V-rods. Made in Korea. Inexpensive, and look nice...just not sure on their reliability or durability.
My boy is 12 years old, approx 100lbs. Was thinking about a 110cc-125cc bike or 250cc atv. He's got a Honda 125 Fourtrax now, but kinda growing out of it.

Gonna be selling that Honduh?

**u_say_go** · 04-04-2009, 08:09 PM

not sure it would be worth me selling it. it's in pretty rough shape, hard to start, and it fell off a trailer last year while cruising down the road. LOL
Better off just keeping it and ride it till she dies

We need to get some riders up there for the new flat track races !

http://www.bunkhouseretreat.com/

A 1/2 mile flat track would really let you open up your atv !

New at the Bunkhouse !

1/2 mile flat track ATV RACES !

May 30th and 31st flat track races

July 11th and 12th flat track races

Aug 1st and 2nd flat track races

Oct 3rd & 4th flat track races

**DynoTom** · 04-06-2009, 08:27 PM

I need to have a bunch of ATV tires dis-mounted and mounted up .....Is there any local places that do it ?

**DynoTom** · 05-02-2009, 04:39 PM

I swapped some flat track tires ( DURO BRAND ) onto my Raptor 700 GYTR !

The flat track tires are 10 X more fun on a ATV !

No more big azz wheelies now , these flat tracks spin and smoke under full throttle blasts , it's a frickin rush to peg the throttle and powershift the gears and go like hell !

Plus , it sure stops a hellava lot faster now that waayyyyyyyyyy more rubber is in contact with the ground.....Ask BOSSLX about how good knobbies stop a Raptor going 67 MPH on a city street....

**badass88gt** · 05-02-2009, 09:09 PM

Boy that is a sweet ass ride. Way better than my Suzuki.

We went out today for a couple of hours, nothing broke, had a good day.

Your Banshee will be modded very close to mine then...only difference will be I have the Trinity 2 into 1 carb and a thumb throttle on mine....

**stenchmiester** · 05-03-2009, 08:31 AM

my winter goal is a 390 stroker and idk if i like the twist throttle i think im gonna go back to a thumb

I prefer a thumb throttle on atv's.....I think it's that you just work the handlebars so much on a atv that the twist throttles are difficult to use....If and when the economy picks up I will prolly sell off my Banshee....It's not that I don't like it but, it's just that I don't really use it much , it's the one that always sits home while I play with the Raptor and YFZ 450....

**Graystone** · 05-03-2009, 12:42 PM

This is what i have.

05 TRX 450R
12.25:1 Venom piston stock bore
HMF full
Works triple rate conversion on front and dual rate conversion on back
A bunch of other little stuff that doesnt make it any faster and some that does.

Bad pic right after i got it all put back together. I have new nerfs w/ heel guards coming and i got to re paint the wheels.

This is my slow 4by

**4I Notch** · 05-03-2009, 10:28 PM

**Graystone** · 05-03-2009, 10:41 PM

yea well probably head that direction when we roll out of the hotel with a fresh hangover. It is usually good times watching the redneck shenanigans that go on there. And that is usually the muddiest trail.

**DynoTom** · 05-03-2009, 10:55 PM

We wanted to try out the new flat track they just built at the Bunkhouse.....I don't know if we would make it out on the state trails up there.....

I will keep a eye out for ya just in case , watch for us too !

**badass88gt** · 05-03-2009, 11:03 PM

We may be at the Bunkhouse on Memorial Weekend, still undecided yet.
