So I did it

Postby NORCAL-DS650 » Mon Jan 14, 2008 12:16 pm

I ended up buying a 04 sportsman700 :) this should be fun, I figure I can use it in the winter and use my ds650 in the summer :). I will post pics of both sometime this week, when I figure out what day I'm off.

I dont remember off the top of my head, but it has low miles on it. I bought it off my father in-law :) so I got a deal I couldnt refuse.

As long as Ken hasn't ridden it or looked in its general direction or thought about it.

All of the parts should stay on it.

HAHA, Thats great, the way I see it, is if we go for a ride and there's somebody that wants to ride and doesnt have one I would be willing to loan mine to them as long as I was able to ride what we are riding on my ds650.

I'll second that, based on actual experience repairing the ones that he has ridden, owned or otherwise thrown his zamboodie on.

If you ride with him, make sure he never looks you or the quad in the eye (headlight). You'll thank yourself in the end.

Don't worry Norcal, I'm a sport quad rider too. For a couple of years now I've been trying to convince the wife we need a 4x4 quad. She keeps reminding me we already have 4 bikes and 2 quads in the garage. I'll keep trying though.

I just wont give up the sportquad, I enjoy it way too much to give it up, but it is nice being able to go play in the deep mud
