DO YOU HAVE THE FRONT TIRES FOR THE SAND???IF NOT THEY ARE WAY WORTH IT!!!THEY FAWKING TURN ON A DIME!!!THE FIRST TIME I RODE CREWD'S 450R I WAS SOLD.......FUNNY HE NEVER OFFERED ME ANOTHER TEST RIDE AFTER THE BOWL RIDE I GAVE IT!!!!

I don't have front paddles, no one in the group I ride with does. They just use bald dirt tires :gapteeth:

It's not as much of a PITA if you ride it correctly, if you need to turn sharp stand forward on it and give her a little throttle! The ONLY thing I am unhappy about is I can't ride the ridge very well in comparison to a quad with paddle fronts! I'm with you on the hobby thing, I've had plans to drop some $$$$ parts on this quad since I've gotten it, but the buggy is getting all the funds. IMO it's pretty damn fast for an all stock quad!

Probably the best current pic I have, with the skid removed and paddles. I have since dumped it on it's side and fawked up my purty skins! :rolleyes:

Because with the stock tires or paddles in the sand if your driving through ruts it will catch on the little sand ridge. And on the sand there aren't any rocks to come up and fawk your brakes or chain. Obviously at Sand mountain there are a few rocks, but avoiding them is not hard!

Up at dunefest with the wet sand and tree shoots, I was so pissed at it lol!

Got there late Friday night, holy crap was it packed! Ended up staying until about 7:30 last night, it was a bit rough but most people were gone by mid afternoon. Didn't even bother going around to look for Bryan. Some pics from the weekend...

that place defiantly gets nuts on holiday weekends...looks like good times...last time i was there I didn't have any lights for my bike and taping a flashlight to my helmet didnt cut it...so I missed out on the best part! NIGHT RUNS! That was when Sauce passed out on the top of the mountain and we left him there.....he woke up later and came back to camp.

Didn't race much, not exactly the fastest bike on the mountain :tongue: The race hill was beet to shit and the top was always crowded. After this weekend I really want to dump some money into the quad to make it go faster. :cool:
