Brake Pad Question.
I am wanting to replace my brake pads, 3 sets 2 front and 1 rear, I can replace them for $90 dollars from the OEM (orginal equipment manufacture)or I have found another full set for $45. Has anyone had any experience with replacing brakes with Sintered Metal Brake Pads.
Yea they may be cheaper but will i be replacing them again in a year?

According to the manufacture of Sintered Metal Brake Pads- these brake pads are designed to withstand highly abrasive conditions. You will get Maximum performance along with great durability. They are perfect for all types of off-road riding. Sintered metal cuts through the film of water that forms on brake disks in wet conditions for exceptional wet weather performance and will perform with little or no brake fade.

The family and I went with some friends as spectators and the ATV'ers their really seemed to be enjoying themselves.

I agree Telstar the yard and Demon the house.
I had problems with the ticks earlier this year and it works.  Frontline makes a spray that will help eliminate existing flea and tick infestations on the dog, I had to buy it on-line.

Is this a good place for slow riders vs. folks on go fast ATV's?
We enjoy taking our time, hitting a few mud holes and such.

$100, thats gas money. 

This event is still happening correct?

Knock, knock... is anyone hear...Helloooooooo

Good Questions.
I was wanting to do the trail rides also;
also how is the mud, I know you have pumps but is there enough water for the pumps?
Please Advise.

On the Northside you will find the Caryville Flats is a GREAT view. It was a full day of riding and make sure to bring extra gas.
There is a message board also that may help with questions.

Wheres Chris Hanson from Dateline, he will hunt these people down! 

Yamaha is my choice, I don't need a black anchor.

Nice place but as stated very rocky and extreme trails are more work than fun, winching, on/off bike etc.. It was enjoyable watching the rock crawling vehicles also.

Same weekend as the Daytona 500   

This may help with some of your questions-

Just don't ask for soap!

Heading up for MLK weekend, just curious if any one else was, weather should be warm and pleasant. 

Thanks, I did purchase a used one from ebay for about a 1/3 of the new price.

I have a 2001 Polaris with 5000+ miles on it and it needs a new drive clutch. Does anyone now were there is a bone yard or a good place for used parts vs. paying top dollar for a new one.

To answer the why is because, at times we/I have ridden 40-50 miles a day and not having to worry about carrying extra gas is a plus. I noticed that some of the manufactures are turning out smaller tanks and with the newer machines being EFI, not sure if that's better gas economy or not. (of course a lot is how the machine is driven and riding conditions) There has been 3-4 times I have returned to the trailer with the gas gauge blinking, as accurate as they are. I currently have a sportsman 600 and enjoy the challenges of mud holes and charting new legal paths. Also I make 1-2 trips a year out of state and this year at Coal Creek I ran dry at 59 miles, mostly of hard packed ground. If I knew I could do this many miles every time gas economy would not be a concern, but in Florida sugar sand, mud, etc.. I normally get about 12 miles a gallon. This is just something I was curious about more than a serious concern. Just for the record I have out gassed a Kawasaki, but been pushed by a Honda.

Rico- just going out on limb, you must have been a straight A student. Thank you for your time and effort.

Anyone know where I can find fuel economy data, specifically for the larger(500cc and up) 4x4 ATV's. Polaris, Honda, Suzuki etc...
Thanks!

We found him on Lake Dexter as a puppy, then we named him Dexter. He enjoys begging, truck rides and sniffing mail boxes etc... He has a cat also, Snicker's.

Question?
Is there a problem going from synthetic oil to regular oil or vica versa.

Also I just place my used synthetic oil on Ebay, whos going to be the first bidder?

 I peek at this during the day(work) and ya'll are cracking me up..

We did see people riding two on one bike, but I am not certain about Coal Creek allowing it. My thoughts are you could do it with a 4x4 utility machine and avoiding the difficult trails. Even with this some areas would be a challenge.
Not sure if this is the "Officials Rules", but this does not refer to any double riding.

I just visited Coal Creek, 72,000 acres of off road fun, located in Oliver Springs, Tennessee. Folks were camping at the trailhead without hookups and there is a campgroud 2 miles away.
You cannot go wrong at the Hatfield-McCoy trails either.

My father and my wives brother traveled ~12 hours in each direction to get there just so we could ride for four days. We stayed at a local hotel and had a 20-minute commute to the trailhead. Most trails are marked easy, moderate, difficult or extreme and we rode 160 miles in the four days with 60 of those coming in one day. I would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to plan an ATV trip.
