WRECK, Damage


Recommended Posts

Yeah, Nobody will ever touch my quad again but me. My dumb ass brother that knows nothing about banshees nor did he listen to anything I told him not to do rolled my quad. Being an idoit trying to show off on a quad he never road before. He bent the handlebars, Chewed up the rear fenders and gas tank cover and also bent the frame around the handle bar shank. He will be paying for every single item, As far as plastics, Maier is the only reseller for this? The frame he thinks he can heat up and bend back, It bent about 1/2" back so the gas tank cover will not line up now And the handle neck is pushed back. The bars themself are an easy fix, Its the frame I am more concerned about. It looks like it only bent from the U bend where the handle bar neck goes through. MAN AM I EVER HEATED! What a JERK!

well, take solice in the fact that the frame damage is all too common, and easily repaired. it can be pulled back into place, especially, since it is only 1/2" out. i would not heat it to bend, but rather heat it after bending back into place. after you pry the tank out and remove the plastics, apply pressure on it whichever way and tap/ping the sides of the bent area to shock it to strait, and then heat up the whole 2 areas with a torch to relax the steel afterwards. it will need to be repaited.make sure the rear of the frame isn't twisted, though. after payin for repairs, he won't want to fuck off on your bike again, lol. and, stop being pissed off before you get started on repairs. just shrug it off, and enjoy fixing it back up for a better end result and experience.

lets see them pics

I'll post pics of it tomorrow or maybe tonight around 1am, I am at work now, I only had about 30minutes to survey the damage. I am glad he is ok, I refused to let him ride without a helmet. I told him not to take it out of 2nd gear and warned him about the powerband. What does he do, He takes it up to 4th gear on a field which is already rough enough to where I can hardly stay in 4th gear. Hit the 4th gear powerband right before a sharp turn with a wire fence, He turns flips it, it rolls over him and he is then thrown into the fence; All in all the damage is minimal. The rear fenders and scratched and chewed up to hell, Gas tank cover scuffed. The quad I drove home and it felt ok so the rear is ok I think. The axel is solid as hell so I am pretty sure that is ok to. It still steers ok. Basically the handlebar neck is almost rubbing the gas tank which is cause of the frame got pushed back right in that area. The rest other than I stated seems good. So maier is the only plastics dealer? The thing I am so heated about is this is vehicle number 7 now which he crashed. All the others were his cars thankfully. He has a 4 cylinder eco car now which is what he needs to stick with.

Now I am off work, DAMAGE, Rear axel good, Engine, pipes, nerfs, A arms, Ball joints, tie rods, Ect good. Front wheels Not so good, Either the hubs or rims are slightly bent front wheels have a slight wobble. The frame bent by the radiator, Don't know if he may have bent the entire frame slightly or not, The silencers are bowed slightly inward and the skid plate is not even on both sides ever so slightly. After I got off work had a cig and drank about 3 beers thinking, I come to the conclusion that this bitch rolled twice. By him telling me it rolled on top of him and him landing in the fence about 20 feet from the ground marks First off, 4th gear before a sharp turn he rolls it, It rolls over the first time and over top of him, As its coming back up for a second spin it throws him into the fence and the SHEE ends up upsidedown. "SHOULD HAVE BEEN A DETECTIVE" uh no, screw pigs, The Bars neck and bent frame section and possibly rear I included pics in my gallery. Best I can do with upload limits. Sorry for the lack of detail. I cannot find anywhere on the frame other than where I took pics around the radiator of the frames paint cracked or welds. I am charging him $350 which is damn generous. Enough for the rear fender and gas tank cover, Even know he scuffed the front to. Damage again I think is minimal and will have it back to even better condition in less than 2 weeks. I will see after I ride again. My lesson learned. Never ever let anyone touch your shit even family. At least I respect somone elses shit if they give me a chance for a quick burn. I guess he could not believe I was tearing it up and he was not. YEAH! NEWBIES ARE SUPPOSED TO DO TAKE IT EASY! BTW, If this was a zilla, It would have been totaled. I am sorry my spelling quadzilla.

1) it is rode, not road. road is something your drive on. rode it the past tense form of ride.

2) there is maier, full bore, OEM, and laker plastic. i also think there is another brand but not 100% sure.

 

This aint fucking english class dude
