    Don't ever get cocky on a 4 wheeler trail with a 3 wheeler. A set of rutts will ruin your day! Telling you from experience!

      @@AaronMartinCOOLVIDEO ok boss! Just saying I had a completely restored 86 350x. Let a friend ride it, long story short he hit a set of rutts at speed and it threw him out the road. Hitting a tree with the back tire and completely destroying a brand new after market extended rear axle! ☝ Enjoy it man👌

      Yeah true. I had an 86 atc 250r when they first came out and I used to ride the awesome sand and clay pits and tracks all through the forest up around Dunedin and Ocala. By the time it was like 1988 instead of 3 wheel ruts it was all 2. The worst was climbing those insane hills and your front wheel now being about 6 inches higher because now you only have 2 ruts. When you blew the climb you would just go neutral, let go if the bars and roll back down like a train. Only on a quad after that.

Ive owned a few Yamahas too, but never the Tri Z. I never had a Tecate 3 either. I dont have any now lol. Just a couple Honda side by sides for mudding and trail riding. Anyway, I like your channel.

    Good build. You can send the rear shock to any quality suspension tuner and they can rebuild the shock no problem with new seals. Arm pump is real, takes awhile to work that out of your system. It’s mostly riding technique that cause arm pump.
