You must be a big guy. Kinda make that quad look like a toy!

Ever see a Honda Odessy? There like a mini pipe buggy.

A Friend of mine got a Odessy that the engine was shot in it. (original was a 400cc 2 stroke with a auto tranny) He put a 600 F2 engine in it! No reverse but who needs it with 100HP LOL

We were at the beach a block from my house fooling with it. He just put it together and it was pretty dam good. Too dam fast! The short wheelbase makes it hop and switch every which way when you really get on it in rough ground. But on the beach it's a blast!

We were doing huge slides all over with it on the beach. Even did a bit of shore skiing towing him and any fool that dared to get behind it! All we had was a VW Bug hood and a shreded boogie board!

The VW hood worked unreal! The little loop handle in front was just right to tie a rope to....

Only thing bad was the steel got hotter that blazes in a 100 yards or so! We finally put the boogie board in the hood and it ROCKED! The heat didnt roast you. At the end of the day it was almost ground through in spots! The boogie board melted to it LOL!

Steering it was impossible it follower the Odessy unless you could swing it in a turn towaeds the slope into the water... In the water it was great but always went back behind the Odessy after a bit.

People (the beach is pretty popular) were freakin out seeing the Odessy dragging a body hangin on for dear life behind it Trying to turn around was the funniest. The hood would cut across the turn and go through the bushes n shit! (The beach there is only about a mile and a half long, prolly good thing. Kept the speeds down) couple of small dunes.

Enough to let us know not to try jumping it! Dam strapped in it (Odessys have a tall cage on them so if it rolls it dome smash you) landings were brutal since you couldnt use your legs! Impact went right up your spine! Only did that once....

It was good fun to do some stupid shit again!

I didnt get in the hood tho.... No freakin way I was gunna beat my self up that way!

Im dam near that size! 275+- 6'2" (wae 3" but age and stupidity has compressed my spine.)

Suprising you know about them, not many peeps do... too bad they were great but Honda had so much trouble from lawyers sueing they stopped making them. Check that link above, the guy talks about his neck/back injuries. Had several vertabrae fused from not having his head restrained with a simpson collar!

I told my buddy about it, he ordered one already
