Title: Having withdrawals Post by: T2 on April 15, 2005, 06:02:32 PM Ok I am going crazy without my Rappy being in service. I am starting have systoms of withdrawals so I needed to vent to my ATV family. Hi my name is Tony (AkA) T2Raptor and have not ridden my bike in over a month and a half, and I don't known what to do anymore. Everywhere I look people are going on group rides in this beautiful weather. So who do I turn to in these desparate times of not riding what do I do? I don't known anymore I need help. Someone please help, I need help, does anyone here me, is there anyone out there.

There will be people going for rides I'm sure who would let you on their quads,,,,if I had more than just me up here this weekend, I would tell ya to come on up.

It would sure help out our fellow riders when in need.
On a different note my axle sould be here on 20th and hopefully I will be up and running for Rodman ride. And the kids Blaster is being rebuilt as well, blown the top end and when that happened I cracked the engine case too, so That has to be replaced, and hoping it would be done by the ride as well. Title: Re: Having withdrawals Post by: MadMudder on April 16, 2005, 11:48:32 AM Take it from a 13yr old that is always grounded from his quad, stay on this site and other sites and if that fails then just don't think about it. Other than that there is no cure except to get it back and ride. What is wrong with it anyway?

Well long story short, its taken forever for them to get the axle back to me. Title: Re: Having withdrawals Post by: MadMudder on April 16, 2005, 01:16:36 PM My bud has a limited edition yfz450 that he runs the crap out of. He does allot of races and has allot of mods for it and he uses durablue axels. I think they are the yamaha axels? Pretty sure that is what they are called. He has never broke one. Correct me if i'm wrong on the name.
Title: Re: Having withdrawals Post by: gery350 on April 16, 2005, 04:49:43 PM i guess being that i fix my own quad, i cant understand what in sam hell takes 6 months to fix. jesus christ. i supt up my bikes and it only took a couple weeks and that was waiting for the bore on the cylinder. is atv repairs shops that backed up. maybe i should start up a business fixing 'em. i'm sure i wont take six months for anything. nothing takes that long to do. not even if the parts are back-ordered. thank god i do it myself. hell i'm not riding this weekend cause i'm waiting on a tie rod and i'm going nuts.
Title: Re: Having withdrawals Post by: Hollywood on April 16, 2005, 07:05:51 PM I feel your pain brother I went 2 months with both quads down. I like to went nuts...now a days if I go one weekend without riding I am starting to lose it! lol I had mine all tore apart waiting on the new steering stem and misc. other parts but through it back together yesterday so I could go play around this weekend. ;D
Title: Re: Having withdrawals Post by: zilla954 on April 16, 2005, 08:08:48 PM I know the feeling. I cracked my bottom end (the bikes [smiley=Wink.gif]) at the Rodman ride in January.
It has looked like this ever since [smiley=Cry.gif] Title: Re: Having withdrawals Post by: dreth on April 17, 2005, 08:32:21 AM if its support you want then its support youll get! go to home depot and buy a 2x4 and screws, screw the garage door shut! you quad feen, i mean your out there starting it up every 5 min! thats like standing in the crack store and trying to quit crack! it aint gonna happen!
theres more to life than those stupid 4 wheele.........................................................................................i must be loosing my mind too! your a week away from eating dirt again ;D Title: Re: Having withdrawals Post by: xtremeraptor on April 17, 2005, 09:02:07 AM i must say that tony has had a pretty crappy time with his 4 wheelers thats gotta be one of the worst strings of luck ive ever seen two bikes in less than a month i feel for ya man. you can come ride my bike if you need a fix.
Title: Re: Having withdrawals Post by: 400exRacer77 on April 17, 2005, 06:24:47 PM i havent rode in over a year because im building a new motor for my bike, how would u like ot feel that........
Title: Re: Having withdrawals Post by: T2 on April 17, 2005, 09:58:43 PM Well I don't know why it would take a year to redue a motor, and if I wanted to ride that bad I would not waste a year on a motor, I would just go out and get another bike, because a year is just way to long to wait to go riding.
I mean Sh&$ I am having a hard time waiting just a month and a half to ride, And that was out of my hands on waiting for my axle to come back. I was getting ready to buy a new axle if my wasn't going to be back on time for the Rodman ride. I have the tracking # from FedEx and it should be here on Wed. if it don't get lost in the process of getting to my house. What that being said I will not wait a year to ride unless I was not physically able to. But if its the bike she will be replaced with another one. ;) Title: Re: Having withdrawals Post by: Ida_Mann on April 18, 2005, 04:56:13 AM Quote i guess being that i fix my own quad, i cant understand what in sam hell takes 6 months to fix. jesus christ. i supt up my bikes and it only took a couple weeks and that was waiting for the bore on the cylinder. is atv repairs shops that backed up. maybe i should start up a business fixing 'em. i'm sure i wont take six months for anything. nothing takes that long to do. not even if the parts are back-ordered. thank god i do it myself. hell i'm not riding this weekend cause i'm waiting on a tie rod and i'm going nuts. SkyHigh's quad aint being fixed,,,just lots of work being done to it to make it look pretty ;-) Id@ Title: Re: Having withdrawals Post by: 400exRacer77 on April 18, 2005, 12:02:59 PM i would have it together if i worked all day but i work part time and im still in school.... plus it takes alot of money to put together a crf450 motor into a 400ex frame.
Title: Re: Having withdrawals Post by: T2 on April 18, 2005, 01:37:50 PM I here you Bro, money is the key word here. Thats all these bikes are money pits. But I wouldn't have any other way, where else would I dump all my money and time into. ;D
Title: Re: Having withdrawals Post by: 400exRacer77 on April 18, 2005, 06:43:55 PM haha ya thats what i like to hear, although my bike would be gettin done i dont have a truck to do this and to do that and all my money right now is goin to that.... i hate when head gaskets go bad.... like u said money is everything in motocross or even just having a 4 wheeler period!
Title: Re: Having withdrawals Post by: T2 on April 19, 2005, 05:33:04 PM Ok I am back in business, my axle showed up today and I am happy. see everyone @ R/D ;D ;D
