Dan and I did a quickie of SSmokinSS hybrid race quad Sunday, the dirt bike is ridden by his sister who is a pretty awesome rider herself. I gotta admit, I’m super jelly of his track and riding area.

The quad is a PRP 250r geometry chassis set up for a yz motor. It has a Yz426 motor with a 445 big bore, high compression piston, cammed etc. Runs on race gas. Gibson long travel front end, roll design/pep long travel rear end. Flip top subframe etc. etc.

The quad was built in 2004. It was used for the nationals by a Pro before the 450  
s (other then the 450r) were in production. I forgot the pro’s name that had it built/owned it and Im not the one who bought it from him. I bought it in 2007 from a guy in penns. I changed alot of it since I bought it.

2 years ago I started parting it out, to get up some funds for my wedding. Well, I told the wife if I still had 75% or more of the quad left, after our wedding I was putting it back together. I just got it back together last week, after having the whole quad scattered in parts for over 2 years. I am not happy with the front end, as it had a Roll design Lobo 2 long travel front end on it with Axis shocks before. I am going to sell this front end on there now, and get my old front end back but thats serious money.

It needs to be rebuilt. It is down on power. I have owned it for 4 years and havent rebuilt it yet. I stripped 5th gear, a week after I bought the quad and I havent fixed that either. To be honest, the quad is nasty fast 1-4 that I never could get in 5th anyways, so I never fixed it.

My dad has a 89 fully built 250r. My quad is much lighter then his.

Its the fastest quad I have ever ridden/owned. Its a workout just trying to keep it straight.

and I have owned a 450r, a few 250r’s including a fully built lonestar 250r that had a CT350 motor on it.

thanks john.

Jim, there is a picture floating around on the internet from when I was a kid and I borrowed my grandfathers 350 fourtrax. I burried the thing in a river over the handlebars and still rode out of the river, flawless. The thing was a Beast! All time awd. Man that thing was fun for mudding.

That quad ended its life when I let a friend ride it, and he decided to park it ontop of a nasty hill, in neutral with no E brake on. As I was coming up the hill on my 3 wheeler, the 4 wheeler was coming down the hill, flying by me with NO ONE ON IT! It ended up flying off the cliff, landing upside down in tree’s below. I freaked the fuck out. Pulled the thing out of the tree’s and ended up riding it back home, mangled. Long story short, I will just say im not friends with that kid anymore for other reasons!

that reminds me, you and dan should have snapped a Pic of that hill on my track so people could see how steep this thing was.
