Good observatin walt, but I have that taken care of by the way that I tie them down to the trailer..

They actually load sideways on the trailer and I tie them down basically like you tie down a car or truck, cross tied front to back adn side to side, plus I have my straps going over the grill guard and rear rack and have their suspension compressed silightlty.

Their not going anywhere

One time I transported my atv by placing the front tires in the trunk of a car and straping them down. I put the four wheeler in neutral and the rear tires just rolled along behind us on the ground <--- now that is how a redneck gits-r-dun

Thanks Donny.. I just wish my truck fit in the garage.. I had to take the topper off to get it through the door, but alas the garage is just not deep enough to hold her..

Oh well.. it means I have one hell of a little workshop..

The wheelers were great. We got up to about 8k and started wheeling in the national forest, at the very least there was 6 inches of snow but most of the time there was 8 to 10... only had one snowbank stop me and I just backed out of that one.

I pretty much figure if I can't get there in one of these, I'm not getting there!

Sorry, it was snowing so bad up there we never stopped for pics

Can-am makes a good wheeler, one thing that I know of is to go through the coolant system and make sure everything is connected and clamped down good. I had a buddy that bought two just like ya'll and smoked the motors because can-am forgot to open the valve or hook up a line, can't remember which.

Awesome! I'd love one, but just don't have the time for it. Wind up just like the snow machine I had....spent most of its life in the garage. But they sure are fun. Just about everyone around me has a 4 wheeler with just about every brand well represented. Unlike most areas though, hardly anyone goes 'wheelin' around here. They mostly are used just for ice fishing.

Nice score Tommy. My wife will be looking into something like these here in about a year, after we get really settled in Arizona. I myself want a Yamaha 450R. You can never have a quad too fast for the desert.
