    The grizzly is pretty sick. Got mad compression. Cant pull the pull start to start it. Digital lcd screen is excelllent. I reach low 70s high 60s. Fully stock. I CAN MAKE THIS THING SMOKE STOCK TIRES. Lots of blue smoke everywhere The raptors are great too. Both have same throttle responce and crazy speed. Grizzly does 0 to 50 in 2 seconds in backwheel drive in gravel I LOVE both machines. Rooster tail constest are also great I can through grass 20 feet easily

    that is the exact opposite of what happens around, all of the ATV's destroy our trails, i guess it is all how you look at.

    well the trails do get tore up when the atv rally is here.over 500 quads.but dirt-bikes i dont know they really do rip them up.

    t-maxxxxx i did actually wipe out pretty bad on a dirt-bike.was on the iron horse trail long strech of the old rail road grades and wiped out on the thing.toor up my knee pretty bad,picking gravel from out under the skin.......so i dont ride them anymore

    Hey sweet quads

    Dirt bikes do tend to do most of the damage on trails round by us. I thinks its because of their narrower tyres or there only been two tires to distribute the weight that they tend to cut into the ground more (like they are desinged to do).

    I don't have a dirt bike, quad, trike or nuthin like that, but its what I noticed when I went down to an offroad course near me with my maxx a few times...........

    yeah probably. I started on a 125. It was kinda intimidating in the begining but once you get used to it and understand the power it is extremely fun. here are a few pics. I think that was about how tall i was when i started riding.http://community.webshots.com/album/70022706PJfOGL

    u would be good on a 125 but its always better to get something little bigger maybe good used kawasaki 250 even no u might have to much power or its to big cause when i was 10 i would ride 125 even no my feet didnt touch the ground - im not sure if ur still growing but say if ur grow 6 foot u might want something a little bigger but i think a 125 is good and alot cheaper but it matters what brand like a ktm is the best but way to expensive . plus a 125 might make ur mom less worried cause less power. just my oppinion

    125 have plenty of power, my freinds dad broke his back on one. THey can throw you of pretty easy if you don't know what you are doing, and i would never recomend anything more powerful than a 125 for a beginer,and even that is more then i would recomend.

    i think quads are more dangerous then dirt bikes, because if you roll a quad ir is gonna break somthin, if your bike lands on you it will just hurt. Trust me i know

    well yes and no.dirt-bikes are way more dangerous for a beginner than quads.lol belive me i know.but just a couple months ago the wheeler landed on my chest and brused some of my muscle's,it was hard to breath and stuff.i blacked out and the next thing i know im in the ambulance.wasnt a very fun day.but anything with a motor is dangerous if you abuse it and dont respect the machine.

    im not a brand man, if i see the most unpopular brand for a good price ill get it, so anything with an engine which is cheap on ebay im interested
    i realised a quad or trike wouldnt fit through my shed door, but i wouldnt mind a cheap motor bike, like 100cc im not really set on the idea of a 125cc as they go like 80mph and it scares me.
    so wats a 100cc like?
