Multi Take over carnage report

[LandPioneer]

Thanks CP - so are you saying the Fox's were having issues? or stock? Yeah - i'd imaging the beer intake would be about the same on polaris' and that survival rates would be less.. It would be cool to do a General vs Pioneer durability test. I am guessing the Honda would come out on top.

I had a buddy there with a General. Those things are like riding in a Cadillac. They do have some typical Polaris issues but they are a pretty stout machine. Workable with a dump bed but comfortable to sit in and they ride smooth. They also can roll, man those things are fast. If Honda put out something like the General I'd be all over it. I just can't stand Polaris and they way they do business.

I'm sure @CumminsPusher will want to edit this later for things I left out....

I'm writing this up because one of the carnage items for him was his iPhone. That's sucks because it had a lot of good pics and vids.

Anyway, he had a decent list of carnage. Man does he ride HARD!

Rocker tubes bent and skids hanging....

I didn't get pics of the multiple bent tie rods or the three bent A-arms. I'm sure someone did though.

Damn that was a good time!

Damn @CumminsPusher

Damn @CumminsPusher

Ya ya. Had fun though! We weren't driving almost 6000 miles to not drive hard, I may have mentioned that a time or two way before we left lol. The damage to Pj was just tax on the amount to come and we had fun not to mention I learned to trust people working on my rig and met some damn good mechanics and trusted friends!

Yes we had a great time. We got to the Takeover a day early and had plenty enough seat time.

I want to say, all things considered, this was MORE than I thought it would be. And recommend EVERY forum member to go at some point.

Make time. Bring someone you love.

And Ride!

Great thoughts.....reminds me I've been meaning to mention, hands down, yours is the best avatar ever. Hope you get your machine going again soon.

Ha... that was a real picture from one of my deer cams.
We thought about making a Christmas card out of it.
(We had that 350 loaded down)

Thanks!
And I think my Pioneer will spring back healthier than ever in 2 short weeks!!

Got to screw it down and bleed but should work fine. Oem was on backorder no ETA.

@Eltobgi was broke so he drove my rig sat night. Was awesome. Don't remember much riding shotgun. Did loose a brake line and air compressor but that's the cost! After busting ass for 2 weeks and an igr the night before leaving it was nice to sit back and enjoy.

Are those stage 5?

 

[snuffnwhisky]

Are those stage 5?

Yes!

 

[JTW]

Yes!

Can you tell a real difference between them and a stage three?

 

[CumminsPusher]

Hey @JACKAL i really do wish we had some time riding together. Could've been fun. We could've broke stuff together maybe

Oh ya, last good one I snapped 2 axle and smoked a clutch, still drove it home. Try that with a popo.

 

[snuffnwhisky]

Oh yea. An hour or so after I met u!

 

[JACKAL]

As far as trying to organize groups to ride that weekend it was like herding cats after throwing water on them. Pretty much an effort in futility.

I have lol! I b**** sometimes after a problem but...I've owned the others! Thank god one didn't burn me. It's funny how sometimes you type in popo and your phone corrects you to poop. Damn smart phones!

Yea. High-speed compression and rebound adjustment. Need the main stack as close as possible though. I've got the specs.
