Is there a pic thread of four wheelers anywhere on here? If not, we should get one started
If there isn't one, I'll add some tomorrow after school

Yeah, My father and I have a custom welding and fabrication shop in Phx. We made this rack for a hunting trip in Alaska. It is all aluminum and weighs approx. 175lbs.
Bump, lets see some more quads!
I'll amend my previous post with this one. Here we are loaded up and ready to head to Alaska.
OK, here is my old man buggy;
Sportsman 600

FMF pipes
ASR +3 arms
Lonestar +2 axle
Ohlins shocks
400ex tag bars
etc....
Its a tourqe monster built for running and climbing sand dunes but does ok in the woods too. I'm getting bored with it but have too much money tied up in the damned thing.
eta - im also on my second frame which preceeds all the mods. Had it apart so I figured whynot upgrade as much as I could. Hitting a tree WOT will rip the A Arm right off the frame - just sayin.
eta MORE PICS being dumb -
Ever since breaking my tail bone on this thing and bruising my kidneys (pissed blood for a week) I have tamed my ride style down alot
Don't have any pics of my new one but it basically looks the same.
Old one 2005 Honda Rancher 4x4 Manual shift. New one 2009 Honda Foreman ES 4x4.
Eh, I'll throw my Raptor in here as well
It's an '01 660 with a 686 11:1 piston
Stage III hotcam
Full Curtis Sparks exhaust
K&N filter w/ velocity intake
+6 Stellar swingarm
It's mainly used as a sand drag bike, but I'm not quite sure if I want to go all out and turn it into a complete drag bike. On my short list of things for it are bigger crank and a lock-out clutch. Here is the crew that I run with. I'm the slowest one of the group, but I still have fun.
NIce ride! Looking at the rest of thos bikes you can tell they are purpose built machines. Wow. I dont have the speed of a banshee but I can just crack the throttle in 4 and lift the front, 5th with a little tug on the bars gobs and gobs of tourqe.
We have a hil that is extreemly steep, twisty, and lined with trees, leaves, loose rock etc. There is a sign at the bottom that reads "motherfucker" and lots of atv plastic carnage laying around it. I have seen three atvs totally destroyed, a 250r, yamaha griz 660 and another raptor 660. Its been years since I have been down there since property holders changed and its fenced, but oh the memories.
Place holder for pix

Thanks man. They are definitely purpose built drag bikes and all of them are fast. I'm still not sure if I want to make that leap since I like the fact I can still go out and just ride and play around on mine. I'm still working on getting it tuned just right, which has been an ordeal in itself. It's tough to find decent builders these days without dropping major cash.
What size crank are you running? I'm planning on tearing the bike apart this winter and putting one in mine as well as a lockout clutch.
ETA- Here's a crappy cell phone pic my g/f took the last race we had
More awesome eye candy!

Im running a +4mm crank. The work was done by a local machine shop since I dont have the equipment. I know it isnt a hot rod crank and they had to do some clearance on the case as well. Im pretty happy with the 10.5:1 compression piston too. I didnt want to be riding something that would grenade on me so I kept it conservative. The carbs are stock (jetted of course)and the header pipe is stock as well. I tried the power bomb header and actually lost torque with it. Tried a carb from a yamaha griz - fell flat on its face.
Didnt mention that Im still running 5 spring clutch with barnett plates and it has held up very well considdering I dont use the clutch once its moving.
Oh my! You guys like ATV's huh? I believe I can contribute somewhat!

So last year my Cousin and I had a chance to go on an Epic atv trip, and we had never been out West before. It started with a small trip to Illinois because I was in a wedding, but it turned out to be a monster of a trip!

The States included in order: FL, GA, SC, NC, VA, WV, KY, IN, IL, IA, NE, CO, UT, AZ, NM, TX, LA, MS, AL
