Atvs and Japanese motorcyles are two topics that I know a lot about. It seems to me that many people that own/operate tractors also like to ride atvs. Is anyone into atvs? I also have good technical background concerning atvs and bikes, which I am always happy to share.

I like mine deepfried with a little ketchup /w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif

Like? Hmm ... I find mine useful ... it gets used at least once a week to pull my manure cart while I rebuild a spreader. Sometimes I use it to ride fence. Other than that it just sorta takes up room in the barn waiting for me to use it. I'd love to trade it and the electric golf cart (that the wife uses for on-site transportation) for a Mule or something similar because it would be useful.
I know others use their ATV's for hunting and for trail riding ... but I've never done either. No time and I prefer my nature with silence rather than noisy mufflers.

Its so bright, it looks like a clean room at a hospital. Our local Suzuki shop has a mud trail to the parts counter and a gatorade bar. You can ride your dirt bikes and ATV's right up to the back door from a local riding area.

Thanks. I am always pleased to hear someone say that. I have tried very hard the last three years to make my shop somewhere a mom would not be scared to take her kid.

This is the scariest part about my shop is this cat. He is the meanest creature God ever made. I'm literally the only human on earth that can pet him. He hunts anything that moves, and fortunately avoids the customers. I like him for some reason.

Your right he looks meaner than a 1974 YZ250.

Wow, nice shop!

I have a Honda Foreman 400 with power kit and Super Swamper Vampires so I don't get stuck in the woods anymore. Had a horrible experience with the dealer's service dept when I bought it, (forgot to do the pre-sale checklist, so it had only 1.5 qts of oil and a few parts -- like the skid plate -- were left off) so am glad it's so easy to work on.

Since upgrading to the L3010 my wife has sort of adopted the ATV. She finds the L-series a little intimidating. The way she drives the four-wheeler, the power kit and tires turned out to be a waste of money. Tamara drives like a little old lady!
