Rough day today

[Ole Nasty]

It started out good, broke an axle and bent another within the first 15 minutes.  Replaced them both in the woods in a monsoon then rode for another or so.  Then blew a tire off bead, used carb cleaner to reset the bead.  Thank God for good friends with spare parts/tools and being prepared.






Bent right rear

Broke left rear

And cocked the diff




In the background you can see my buddy fishing around for the throttle lever that broke off in his hand, lol.





We had a very hard day of riding, at least I did anyways.  Had an absolute blast though.  These pics only show a sliver of the amount of riding we did, I went through a whole tank of gas and went down trails I didn't even know existed.  Can't wait to do it again.

Yes but they don't do so good going down the trails, lol.

I don't think those pics barely do any justice to the rest of the riding we did! Sure, there was some deep water there... but the rest of the trail riding that was rack deep... that's where it's at!! There's actually a boat out there on one of the trails, if we didn't get OleNasty's bike back in running order, we were gonna load the scooter in the boat and haul him around!!

I think you guys should check out the Quadski,  just seems like alot of abuse to the machines is all. I dont think the mfg. had this kinda use when they made these machines, just sayin, but enjoy it out there and be safe

To me mud and water riding is the only way to ride.  Riding trails and hauling azz down dirt roads is fun but gets old quick and is not as challenging.  Some of these fourwheelers come from the factory able to ride in deep water and mud so they hold up well to this kind of riding.

That's why we are awesome, because we take it to and past a level the mfg never intended it to go to.
