I haven't owned a dirt bike since the late '70's. I've had several road bikes but no dirt bikes since then, and wanted to get back into the dirt so I thought I'd pick up something not too wild...'03 YZ450FI can't believe the power this thing has.

Hi Merz, Glad you are ok. About 8 years ago, I was cooking dinner for my wife and I on our grill, I went inside for something, and the next thing I remember was waking up in the back of an ambulance with a nurse shining a light in my eyes. I had a seizure also, but mine was self induced.... I had be...

I watched the video on their website http://www.v8snowblowers.com (he's supposed to be getting a better video online, cuz the one he has on there now sucks).I think I remember reading he has a spool in the "rear end", but I think he would have been better off with "posi-thrashin".

Thanks for the write-up Colonel, One of the sore spots on the Vue is the center console. They changed it in 06 to the same console that's in the Equinox and Torrent (I think). The center console that's in the 05 and prior Vues is a waste of good plastic. Thanks for the pics.

cohocarl

I'm going to go check it out. I've been thinking of looking into a pay as you go cuz we don't use ours much at all. The only problem is with the other pay as you go deals is there's a daily usage fee which added up to what we are paying now, so I haven't made the switch. I'll check it out. Thanks.

You could also peek under the rear end and see if there's a wire running up to the brake assembly. The pic below is of my 03 without abs.You could also get out on a deserted road and slam on the brakes.
