the day i bought her. man that was amazing.

the amazing thing is i only payed 1600 bucks on ebay and had a 5 hour ride to the tip of north florida.

i went riding in indiantown off  i95 onto martin highway exit last weekend so it was the first time riding and it had to be on a track hah was that a crazy choice. we get there and its all dirtbikes so they all gave me respect for being out on a track with all them. i stalled out like 5 times but other than that i think i did pretty good for the first time riding.

learn to post pics.....

here

lmk knows how to git-r-dun ;)

whats with the tractor???

we didnt have anything to get the quad up into the truck so the guy we bought it from just brought his tractor out nd lifted it into the truck bed. pretty cool...

Nice ;)

what no pics at the track???

ummm, listen and learn, this is how i get my quad on the trailer, and back of the truck.
get a bud, you grab one front tire, and your bud grabs the other, you lift it, and out the front tires on the tail gate of the bed, then with the bike in a wheelie formation, you grab one rear tire, and your bud grabs the other, and then lift, and push the rest into the bed of the truck.
come on man i thought this was second nature to everyone...

but anyways congrats on your new bike.

nahh i didnt get any pictures at the track unfortunately 06 raptor7r becuase i left the camera home but the track was pretty cool.. we got there an 2 hours before it closed so it was slightly sandy but over all i had fun.

yea thank you klutchbuster but the thing is that we had rented that truck beings we didnt have a trailer yet. we just bought our trailor about 3 weeks ago. and thank you, i love quads its just it took me forever to save up for one.

Congrats on the new quad! I know i was ecstatic when i got mine. You can buy ramps for pretty cheap if you dont want to lift it too, just make sure they are as light as possible, because lifting ramps at the end of a long ride just pisses you off lol.

Klutch's idea works too, but i doubt you need a friend, i can lift my 400 by myself. So as long as your back isnt messed up, shouldnt be a problem.

enjoy the quad!

wait a sec, you paid for your own quad?
how old are you?
your respect level just went this much higher! :Hug.gif

well since i was about 8 years old in New Jersey my older brother had about 3 dirtbikes so i always wanted one. then when i was about 10 he sold his last dirtbike and bought a 250ex quad. i was wayy more interested with that! it was so much cooler. so i bugged my dad since i was 10 till now that im 14 pratically 15 and we moved to Florida we had the money. I would give him some of my birthday/x-mas money and put it towards that every year but with from 10-15 i would give up hope beings quad are sooo very expensive and i had hardly enough. so a couple weeks ago my dad was like hey bobby there's a 300ex on ebay for cheap. lets try buying it. when i won the auction it was the best day of my life, besides the day i picked it up! so the truth all together is me and my dad bought it. but with all the respect throughtout the years ive gave him and being a good kid it all was worth it. so being good definetly pays off. so finally i have my quad but im the only one with one now im my family beings my older brother has his 400ex up in new jersey with him i have only my uncle with his 450 yamaha dirtbike! but its awesome. AND IM EXTREMELY HAPPY TO JOIN THE FLORIDA QUAD FAMILY.

oh cool, hope to see you out at the track or trails sometime ;)

yea definetly.
where do you ride most of the time?

well out of all the places, i've probably road at the seminole track the most, but i also ride at 8th street, and the hump.

seminole tribe mx?

im pretty sure ill be riding there in maybe 2 weeks not sure yet.
ill let you know, cuz i gotta get my exhaust and make a time with my uncle.

whats 8th street?

yeah that track, 8th street is basically mud and trails, located down here in south florida, where are you located?

i live in port saint lucie

Nice quad!, and I'm just wondering but in the very first pic of your quad where its in the garage, do I see half of an ATV?  I thought you said it was your first one...  Or are you saying that it is urs, and maybe that half of one is ur dads? lol, confusing but I need this question answered.

what you are looking at is a subframe, and rear plastics behind the 300ex. ;)

Wat yeat

Ok first question..the quad you see by mine is my older brothers he had it down here when i got mine but sadly the engine got problems nd we didnt ride..yea like i said the 300ex is MY first quad.

Second question.. the 300ex is a 1997..pretty dam goodshape if you ask me..the thing was garage kept..the 400ex which isnt in florida anymore is a 2002..its a 440 with ac nerfs..DMC alien exhaust..tag bars..racing plastics..itp heavy duty rims with razr's all around..

thanks for all the action on this thread..cool to talk to other riders..

*raises hand*  Im not a rider yet.  I still dun have a quad.  Go to the forsale section and look for a thread title "2003 Honda 400EX with 416kit" or something to that effect.  I might be getting it :).  Ive always loved quads all my life but could never afford one till now ;D

yeaa..its amazing the day you get it.

good luck! hope its all yours!

yeah, my mom and dad are lending me the money for it, but im werkin this summer for my dads business which will easily pay it back.  Sucky part is I will be werking Mon-Fri 6AM-5:30PM and every other Saturday.  Will have no time to ride the beauty really, but it will be worth it  8)

heckk yes its worth it..working everyday to ride a weekend away is worth every second in my book.
