bobby thanks for letting be tag along!!

Beautiful!!!!!!

Looks like the PO-POs were rolling deep.....

Can't wait to hit this place in March and meet all you guys in person.

6 po-po s and 2 rhinos hope yall kept up with them and made the ol rhinos look good :D good pics

the po pos left me in the dust i found out i need front shocks bad! i had to replace a fuel filter and a bolt broke on my pipe and three bolts fell out of it. it got hot once climbing a hill in a tight trail. the other rhino got hot a coulpe times and got stuck in a sandy creek bed and took my winch and a rzr to pull it out.(i thank bobby may have a pic or 2 of that).
the only problem from a rzr was a bent skid plate and a rollover on its side.

Looks fun. I can't wait to ride some more.

Always good to see pics !!!!!!!!!!!

i have a couple videos of a grizzly and 400ex jumping the gaurdrail at the top of the hill climbs that i will post when i get them uploaded!!

i would have liked to took more pics but it was to dusty. but bobby will have lots of im sure.

Cool Video.

Glad thay did not catch the back tires on the rail.
that would of been painful.....

Love these vids keep them comeing......

Nice meeting you Bush Rhino. Hope we get to ride sometime when I don't have the kids in the Rhino. My daughter only goes to WV several times a year but last weekend was one of them.

Get you some Progressive 425 fronts -- they are cheap and work good. Also clean that radiator -- I've worked my 4seat Rhino hard in WV and it never overheats. Normally the Polaris's overheat first. If you were with BobbyD in that long "Stump" mudhole there is a good chance you have mud in your radiator. After I play in that hole I make sure I hit a few creeks hard to try to clean it out.

Here's the mudhole I was referring to (video is the other Rhino in your group):

That trail were the Rzr laid on it's side has always been easy. It changed quick once the mining company tried to close it. Made it real interesting. I went through there Sunday and really enjoyed that trail! I was expecting a easy Sunday morning ride.

great meeting you also!! i had a blast and im ready to go back.

im have been looking at several shocks and plan to buy some soon. now that i got the go-a-head from monica


i worked on the rhino almost all day sunday. started off taking my wheels and tires off because the xtrs always go flat on me so i was putting the tires off my kodiak (26 dirt devils) on the rhino and i had the rhino jacked up and noticed the bolts that hold the rear diff was loose and the bolts in the diff supoort were gone so i fixed that then found that i had a rear wheelbearing out (had to order parts) then went to put the front tires on found i had a front wheel bearing out (i had 1 so i changed that) and allso tightin up all the shocks. now to i started on the exaust that fell off ,i putnew bolts in it and got it all back together right at dark. and took it for a ride. its fast out of the hole now with the 26 DD (thay are really smaller that stock) and the wheels have a wide offset.
rode it to my brothers house (2 miles) and the bolts in the muffler fell out agin. so now i am going to put the stock muffler back on :evil:

Wow -- That's alot of stuff to check/fix. Guess I've been lucky. My XTR's have almost 1/2 gallon of slime in each one and never leak any air. They stay at 10psi. I still have to check out my Rhino from this weekend but I expect everything to be OK.... It ran great.

You asked me about the shocks at KFC and my opinion is still that the Progressive 425's are great on the front. On the rear I added the EPI Heavy Duty springs since even the revised Progressive HD springs are weak. I do not bottom out but the ride is pretty stiff until the shocks heat up.

i will more than likely go with the progressives because of price. i was also looking at the hd springs from hunterworks. but after you buy the tool ti change them theres not much diff in price.

I bought the Progressives. Have not tried them yet, but I hear good things. Clay can get them for you through his store.

Bush Rhino -- I have the Hunterworks spring tool. I'll most likely be up to WV Nov 15 if you want to change the springs up there and ride that weekend. I'm also going up there this weekend but riding ATV's to try to find some new trails. Changing the springs is easy with the tool -- maybe 20 minutes.

One issue with stiffer springs is that the ride becomes much harsher. The Progressive springs still give a good ride. I really think the Progressive bump stop helps as much as anything. The bump stop eliminates the harsh bottoming. I have not felt my Rhino bottom out at all.

thanks roamerr
i may hit you up on the spring tool soomtime but it will be at least next month before i buy any thing. (only getting paid once a month sucks) and im also doing some research on them all.

Just let me know if you need the spring tool. It's easy enough to change the springs...
