LTRs make good flotation devices :D
« on: March 26, 2009, 08:56:43 PM »
This was about 2 years ago.. the first winter my rappy and my friends LTR saw.. I was working on making a quad video. And my friend Kevin was never around to get any shots with so. Me and him went out to a nearby sand pit to get some footage. Well. Everything was goin good. It was a bit chilly out.. 25ish... The entire center of the sandpit was flooded and about 1" of ice over the top... my friend was on a little peninsula part whippin shitties..... his rear left tire caught a rut near the edge, the entire bike flipped up and over landing on him upside down crashing through the ice.. Enjoy :)



Scenery Rappy's and LTRs CAN get along!




They do NOT make good bobbers


Kevin just got out from under neath it.


Poor lil' bugga


I dubbed this.... "The Ride O' Shame"  :lol:


Just got it home to my parents place.


Tip it over to get the water out.


Pullin it apart draining the oil.


Little bit o' sand in the air box and some water in the intake :help:


Nothin like a good milky color comin out of your 4 month old engine!


Here comes the water!


Yummay


sand/silt all over it still from being on the bottom..



It wouldn't start that day.. we let it sit next to the wood stove in our garage over night.. next day, she fired right up..
went for a about a 1/2 hour ride. Came back changd the oil... Went out for 1 more ride about 1 hour. changed it again. and she left my home. :thumbs:
