explain your terminology pls... three trips through non stop?

That was my son the pro quad racer....once he's moving he will mostly be in
5th gear, he will start at the end after coming out of the creek, ride to the road, turn around run back to the top of the creek and then back to the road....then get off the quad beat red, walk around and drink a gallon of water ..... it's great endurance training.
He basicly goes front end light ie: it looks almost like he's wheeliing and lets the back suspension clip the tops....if the front end starts hitting to much you actually cant hang on to the handle bars so you sort of guide the steering straight but let the quad bounce under neath you...he was taught this technique from Joe Byrd at his race school....it is hard to get your head around but it is the fastest way accross whoops.....he will also look for sets and will double or tripple some of them....as he will use the air time to relax....

He can only do that kind of run when he's been practicing and racing, he normally races in the arena cross and ice races and snowman races all through the winter....but life got in his way this winter and he only trained in the gym and we went sleding a few times....and yes I have trouble keeping up with him....it's a bitch or a blessing not sure which somedays....watching your offspring ride faster and better then you after teaching and training him...lol

There are a few pictures of him in our albums....

No way i love old Zillas. Atleast you have the best pipe made for it . "Q" pipes are the shizz on the 250-500 LT's

My buddy runs a zilla out here also. He can keep up most of the time. :d


Post up pics bro!!! Hope you cut the dumbo ears off the front though !!! LMAO...Geter done EH !!!

Ya, they are a unit only a mother can love. The 560 is hellish fast, I surprised a 525 KTM dirt bike with it. Unfortunately it is only fast in a straight line or climbing hills. The 22 year old suspension doesn't cut'er otherwise.

I was thinking of entering the old girl in some grass drags somewhere but I don't know where they hold em for atvs.
