I got a 1999 400ex on trade this weekend, and am buying a 95 honda 90 tomorrow. If this works out, I will pick up a few more when deals come along.
I've ridden friends quads in the past, had a blast, but always stuck with a toyota, jeep or bronco for a trail toy. Now I live on 5 acres, surrounded by dirt roads, and have a national forest a mile from my house. I think a fleet of quads would get more use, and be more enjoyable than a rig. My kids are 11, 6, 3, and another one coming.
We aren't going to be running WOT, just putting around the desert,
What kind of saftey equipment do we need to aquire? I'm thinking helmets and chest protecters, anything else?
What kind of maintenance do I need to perform?
What do I need in my trail tool kit?
What do I need to look for while buying used quads?
What are good websites for cheap parts, tires, etc?
What else did I miss?
