Cool Where are the other toys at?

I'm sure there's maybe 1 or 2 on here with some other offroad toys beside the trucks right? Post em up.

2006 Predator 500


In the last few years, bought and sold 2008 Polaris Sportsman 800, Honda FL350 (a gokart), 03 Skidoo Rev 800 long tracked, 01 Banshee 350 with 404 big bore, and I regularly borrow step dad's atv.

2004 Honda Rubicon 500

I ride it far more than he ever does (he uses it around property moving wood and such with trailer) and keep the maintenance up on it.

*edit*
Just occurred to me this probably should be in Off Topic. My bad! If mod moves it thanks!

Where the pics?!
Of all the toys I've had personally, if really wanted to list,

ATVs: 96 Polaris Sport 400, 01 Polaris Scrambler 400 4x4, 94 Yamaha Timberwolf 250 2x4, 83 Honda 200s and a 84 Honda 200 Big Red.
Sleds: 91 Arctic Cat Jag 440 2x4, 99 Mxz 670HO (this thing never ran right. electrical grimlines), and 99 Mxz 600.

I do have pics of every single one but that's just flooding necessarily. My top favorites are tie between the Sportsman 800 and the Predator. I actually traded the Sportsman for the predator plus $1900 cash my way.

Right now I'm actually having a toss up between another 3 wheeler or a dirt bike. In a 500-650 price range. 3 wheelers are pretty easy to find running good. Dirt bikes seem a toss of a coin if it's gonna last without a rebuild. Just some cheap toy to dink around on as I already have the Pred for my main. I'm also thinking about taking my parents EZ-Go gas golf cart off their hands and doing something to it. Been lurking around a golf cart forum for info. Got some cheap/free stuff to do it for more seat the pants feel...

Eventually when I'm working more and economy has improved for us up here, want to get a 06/07 Skidoo Rev 800 and trade/sell off my Predator for a Polaris Outlaw 525. The upgrade there is same bike as my Predator basically but with IRS and the 525 is a KTM motor. Maybe also get another Sportsman 800 as 2nd atv. The big dream is some Polaris RZR and a Sportsman 850.

1979 Honda CT 90, she's not much but will go anywhere. Also own a 64 CT 90 that i can sink up to my waist in water and will keep going with a high mounted snorkel

Also a 1953 Johnson 5HP motor I pulled out of a scrap bin. Cleaned the points, added some gas and fired on third pull and boy does this thing haul!

I've got more things with tires than I'd like to admit, but here's my favorites
1. 2006 Nomad 27' LTD for staying comfortable in our outdoor adventures...
2. 2002 Polaris Xpedition 325 with my sons little "Kangaroo" 110cc Chinese import. (Also not pictured is an 86 Honda FourTrax 350)
3. When not playing in the dirt i'm an official member of the Redneck Yacht Club... (64 Fiberform 16' is mine, my brother-in-law has the 72 19' Seaswirl which is more visible in that pic....)

After reading all this this thread is making me depressed! Seems as though ever since I got married and had a little girl I had to sell off my 06 700r raptor and my 06 Honda vtx 1300. Oh what having a kid can do to a mans toys! Might have her talked into a camper and a boat! Makes me feel old at 28!

@ 26, I'm glad I've put off kids despite my mothers begging to be a grand mother. But, I hear some of the biggest regrets of 30 yr olds is they didn't have their kid(s) in their 20's instead. While they had the energy and, usually, the time to raise them. By time their 30 you don't have the big handful of the youngins until near 40.

I agree I don't regret having my daughter at an early age. It's definitely fun and I wouldn't trade it for the world! It just makes you feel like your growing up to fast when selling off four wheelers and bikes for campers and boats. But it should be fun for the whole family now.
