Anyone else ride quads???

I ride a '87TRX 310R. It is modded to the max. Me and my friends frequent Pismo Beach dunes about once a month and Dumont about 3 times a year. You can see pics of my quad at

http://photos.yahoo.com/bc/spinks250r/lst?.dir=/Quad+Pictures&.src=ph&.order=&.view=t&.done=http%3 a//photos.yahoo.com/bc/spinks250r/lst%3f.dir=/Quad%2bPictures%26.src=ph%26.view=t

If you do ride and live in California let me know and maybe we can hookup for a dune trip sometime. Thanks, Spinks

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 25-Feb-02 AT 01:10 PM (EST)]I prefer ATC's I had a 250r with a CR500 engine in it moved like a raped ape took it to glamous 2 times But got rid of it after I was riding in a wash and went to pass my brother in-law and ran into a deep ditch and broke my neck in 2 places. Now I just use my truck off-road

I guess it doesn't count, but I love my '02 Honda XR400. It's worth about five times what I paid for my truck.

I had a CBR900RR (crotch rocket) before that. Can you say 0-30 in 3sec.? I knew that ya could!

I would like to buy a four-wheeler but have no idea what to look for and how much i should be paying. Any suggestions for a good starter quad? Idealy i'd like to pay 1000 or under but i realize it's not a ideal world.
