 Posted: Sat Jul 07, 2007 1:12 pm Post subject: WHAT HAVE YOU BROKEN/BENT ON YOUR QUAD? |
  |
|
Just thought I would post this and see who has broken what on their quads. Just post what bike you ride and parts you have had to replace?
2007 700 Raptor SE
-Bent rear axle n front right rim on one ride.
-Bent left steering tie rod.
-Had rear brake seize on without park brake lever engaged once. Caused lock up n stall in a corner. Not good. Sorted now, think was poor adjustment from factory.
-Had fairing screws come loose.
-Water pump telltale was leaking from new. Yamaha came good with all parts warranty.
sweet riding all
later |

Barrel Rolled my Raptor 700 se the quad made it all the way round but ripped me off it as it rolled I beleive this is the first time in Australia that this has happened. I was out for 5 minutes. Came away lucky though.
Bent right side front and back rims
Bent steering stem
Bent Pro Tappers
Bent tie rod
Scatches on plastics.
Smashed O'neil helment
The best accident I ever seen was my partner hitting a tree at 70kmh on her KFX 700. Bent front Rim, Ripped the left side upper and lower A-arms clean of the frame, bent tie rod, bent handle bars and some brocken plastics. It was huge, the Quad lauched about 8ft up the tree then landed. |

Gee I hope she's fine, I'll assume she is. But what is it with KFX's and climbing trees, is a "green" thing
