Not as big as Jeff's 650. Only a 500.
There are 1100 miles on it. Green clothing on a Bombardier.

Burlkraft stopped by today, and I think when he first saw this photo, he thought it was pedal powered.  ;D ;D ;D   

We stopped for lunch at da Roxbury, and even had a taste of their chicken livers.....(at least I did, and they were very good too).  ;D  Burlkraft thought they was kin to a used oil filter... :D :D :D

I sure would love to be there, but it still is not looking very good. However if I do come, since I don't have a four wheeler, could I bring my six wheeler?

 

Ya, I know it's not as shiney and pretty as beenthere's and it's got some scratches and dents, plus it will be a little slower, but it's red and is very determined to get me where I'm going in a nice comfortable seat.  ;D ;D

Oh, and trail width is not really a problem, at least to me.   :D :D :D

And if somebody got stuck or broke down, I could just pick them up and carry them back. Course it does grip kind of hard. Leaves a lasting impression.   ::) ::)

So what do you think, would that work...... ???        If I can come that is....... :) :)

Ha Gary C,
I was going to ask about the same thing.
My ATV is a M6800 Kubota. 4x4, Dif locks, Heat and Air in the cab. It goes any place I have aimed it. And the 43" tall front tires roll real easy over things. Just take the loader off and put the Farmi on and a way you go.

 ;D

Basically its going to be a mens weekend. We will visit, eat, and go on trail riding safaris that Nailhead and "The Bob" are setting up. There will probably be story telling and possibly some fermenting of the cider going on so being limited to an adult mans weekend is more appropriate. Dont worry beenthere, you wont need dollar bills.  It'll be like walking into the lunch room of the local sawmill or lumberyard, much different then those adult places yer prolly thinkin of.  :D
