  1. I have been adding all kinds of stuff for for utv's and atv's so if you have a Joyner, Rhino, RZR, any kind of 4 wheeler, or pretty much any off-road ride... I can most likely get you the stuff you need for the price that you want. I am usually always lowest for any accessory... Call and see... :) I figured i would let everyone know. Meg

    Thanks for the offer but who do we call? Is there a web site?

    PS. Did you not pop, explode, or whatever its going to do yet?

    Happy Holidays!

  2. Funny, here in Southern AZ we build in the valley and don't want anything to disturb the slopes. Just the opposite. What was wrong with widening the old route? Less costly and the critters were already disturbed.

    I am not sure why the planning commission chose to build this route

    as I don't get involved with them but I have a good idea.

    If your familiar with Washoe Valley from Reno to Carson it is

    quite a narrow valley scattered with ranches and fertile grazing

    land for horses and cattle alike.

    Something we don't have much of around here being desert.

    Keeping the freeway traffic and noise up out of the way and

    preserving the scenic valley seems like a good idea.

    It is costing a fortune though, one contractor that started

    the bridge backed out saying the elevation and strong wind is

    just to dangerous to build a bridge like this.

    Another contractor has taken over the job and with a little

    different approach is building the bridge.

    That center support you see in the picture is only being

    used while the bridge is under construction and later

    will be removed.

  3. I tried posting a video of the Trooper with a new canvas enclosure here to show what the vision was like looking through the plastic windscreen, but I could not so I opened a youtube account and posted it there. The link is
    and it will give you a fair idea what the vision is like & a NZ bush track. This one was a closed forestry rd that wouldn't of seen a truck in years. We did find a truck but that was the end of that track. The vision through the windscreen is surprisingly very good but I still decided to add a zip and now you get the best of both worlds. The photos of the zip are here: http://community.webshots.com/album/568944807yrkoaG

    Cheers Mike.

    Where do you buy this enclosure for the Trooper or did you have it custom made?

  4. Just some interesting info about Reno where I live!

    Everyone has been to Reno at one time right.

    Many famous movies were filmed in Reno.

    The 'Biggest Little City in the World' is what the sign reads.

    Now the largest free spanning bridge in the world is under construction.

    It will connect Reno with Carson City, the Nevada state capital.

    There will be many smaller bridges along it path and the highway will

    scale the side of the mountains with the bridges being heated during the

    winter months.

    As not to disturb the horse grazing, wildlife and off-road trails. :rolleyes:

    Since our Democratic Senator Harry Reid is a avid off-roader he has

    made sure our areas have been kept open and unrestricted for off-roading

    with staging areas everywhere. New developments were not allowed to

    block off access to BLM land at least here in Northern Nevada.

    Here is a picture of the construction, taken about a half mile away

    is about as close as you can get at this time by car.

  5. Happy Holidays Jimmy!

    Happy Holidays Roc and to all!

    Unlike you guys I love the cold and snow.

    The most fun time of year for off roading in my opinion.

    Instead of the hot dusty trails we get some mud and snow to play in.

    Put the tracks on the quads, get the snow mobiles out.

    Nothing as exhilarating like being at 10k feet mountain top in a blizzard, now this is Gods country!

  6. He is putting together a good team. BUT, how do you save an economy that is based on credit? I still have great concerns. This country has to start producing more than just consumers and stop relying on other countries for products & oil. It will take a generation to rebuild USA if the government can stay on a single course of action. Unfortunately, history shows the not to be the case. Pay cash, save money and depend on no one! This course of action does not care who is in office or what happens in the world.

    I don't have a solution or quick fix, I hope Obama does.

    But trickle down economics has not worked for 8 years. Give to the wealthy and hope they create jobs?

    How many thousands of jobs have we lost with Bush and cronies.

    Lets try trickle up economics for a change like Obama wants. It has worked before to end the great depression.

    If consumers buy, there will be a need for product thus creating jobs and hopefully a snowball effect.

  7. No scarred of what will happen.

    We all have a good reason to be scared for many reasons.

    The shambles the Bush administration has left this country.

    Or maybe your referring to Obama being black and middle class, I don't know.

    At any rate I think Obama is what this country needs to get back on track.

    This same question has raised quite a debate on RA in the Out House section, some sick dudes over there.

  8. Lol!!!! I tried to name her Chevelle. but James wasnt going for it... haha (not Joking) but my papa is not doing so good and his name is Jaypee and we came up with Jaylen and then her middle name is Emerie...last name Hudson

    JEH

    Now there is a coincidence! My granddaughter's name is Chevelle, she is 4 years old now.

    I didn't think it was a great idea at the time but that name has really grown on me.

    Her father builds and races Chevelles.

    Here she is in here Halloween costume.

  9. We just had our trooper out with two rzr s' They are both a good machines. The rzr's are more costly...but the trooper did come right up and the rzr's butt when climbing behind. From what i hear they are both bad ass machines and really cant say one is better. I hope they have video footage and I will post it. and just cause it has a Chinese engine means its not even looked at... haha that is bs. really Just because these are in the lead with others is why they are trying to not to put the name out anymore than it is. If you are gonna trash talk other utv's go back to riding arizona to do it... we were happy in here

    Actually the base RZR does not cost more than the Trooper. The RZR S maybe a bit more.

    So far the major Off Road magazines do not talk about Chinese vehicles.

    There are a couple of used Troopers here in Reno at a very good price.

    I may still get one for a project that I am working on. LOL

  10. Thanks for that, it's called a disclaimer and all companies do it these days and T.J USA is no different. Good on them for putting this on there web site. Don't give all the credit to Team Joyner, Polaris have Disclaimer warning stickers on their machines and printed in their manuals just like Joyner do. So good on you too Polaris for that, but I wonder after the recent deaths and injuries with their tipsy RZR they are going to add " Serious injury or death can result from turning or climbing a hill with a RZR" .

    Cheers Mike

    Your right Mike, I believe it is a disclaimer here. Not to protect the rider like you are saying.

    I think they are saying there machines were not intended for this use.

    This is definitely true with the water level.

    Don't you agree?

  11. At the request from the Joyner dealer hear and I am sure from many others, Thunderinc, Team Joyner

    has posted on there web site a warning about there buggies and the damage it will cause.

    Quote from the Team Joyner web site:

    Joyner does not recommend jumping your vehicle or running your vehicle through more than 20 inches of water.

    This is located on the first page of there web site.

  12. ATVriders.com says the RZR is the ultimate UTV!

    Not just a lot of talk but hands on reviews.

    All American made and it shows.

    The new 09 RANGER RZR S is the ultimate, pure-sport side-by-side built for the desert, dunes and open spaces. The machine delivers unmatched performance using an 800 H.O. EFI Polaris twin engine that churns out a 63 MPH top speed and features Polaris’ exclusive, long travel suspension kit that widens the vehicle to 60-inches wide. Along with premium styling including custom Turbo Silver paint, wide fender flairs, extended rear cab frame supports and 26-inch Maxxis Big-Horn tires, RANGER RZR S has high-performance features not found on other side-by- sides such as Chrome-Moly upper front A-arms and adjustable Fox® performance shocks making it the ultimate sport side-by-side.

  13. Great post on the RZR wiring harness.

    I have talked to Dave at autotrend and will get one on the way.

    I must have missed this post on the RZR forums as there are so many new post in a days time I usually don't wade through all of them.

    Besides the factory lighting I have added lights front and rear, two way radio, spot lights, warning lights, and possibly a heater this winter.

    If the regulator gets caked with mud or dirt where it is located it will over heat so moving it up front and higher is a good idea and what Polaris has done for 09.

    Thanks

  14. Polaris district sales manager Mike Carr suggested we head to Reno, Nev. and ride at Moon Rocks. With its mix of whoops, steep hills, rock crawling and wide open trails it proved to be an ideal spot to put the RZR S to the test.

    Check out there article at ATV.COM and you got to see the video! awesome...

    We had three RZR's last year at Sand Mountain NV for testing and they let everybody ride them.

  15. We got a little snow so far this winter. Some of the ski resorts have opened.

    Most of them had to make there own snow.

    I will keep riding the RZR until the snow gets to deep or stay at the lower elevations.

    It a b%$#h trying to dig a UTV out of 3 feet of snow or more.

    But I am ready for the deep stuff, my friend and I have tracks for our Kawi Prairies.

    These things go any where with tracks, we are not as fast as snowmobiles but we found

    we can go places they cannot.

    The name of the game is fun! when we are not involved in search & rescue.

    Here is my buddy in the red having some fun

  16. http://www.utvguide.net/utv_models.htm

    Swiped this for another post, but thought it interesting.

    Good post, I never realized there were so many different brands and models of S&S's out there.

    I'm not sure if there all sold here in the states or not.

    And I wonder what a list of quads would look like.

    I was interested in a couple of small scooters last spring in the 50cc to 150cc range as they

    don't need to be licensed in Nevada and I could not believe there were hundreds of different brands.

    I think half were made by a handful of Chinese companies with different names put on them.
