[Scottishpride]

I blew the engine in my quad from running it too lean, too fast on a hot day. that was at the beginning of summer and so far its supposedly sitting at the yamaha shop with a brand new motor. ( there 3 weeks past the first deadline)

All i want to know is have you blown/seized your engine ( sled or quad or dirtbike) and whats your story?

I parked our grizzly in a swamp. Took it home cleaned it up, then a while later it shut down permanently.

Years ago had a yz 250 blew it up too lean.
After that a 3 wheeler engine due to water.
Then 3 different snowmobile engines one of those was in july in the hay field.
One was a yamaha and 2 cats.
The last was a quad due to overheating. A polaris
Maybe with age I will not wreck as much.:d
