New guy from not so dark Africa

[Afriblast]

Hi Guys, I just bought myself a '00 blaster as my first quad. I decided on a Blaster, like most of you here, simply because of the bang for buck. I got it from a girl who had hit a stop sign with it when it was almost brand new, she got such a fright she basically left it in the garage till now! Needless to say it is still stock except for Ricli rims, nerf bars, a grab bar and hand guards and I had a few things to do like lubricating the cables, greasing all the nipples etc. before I could take it for a spin. I'm getting married next year and hence dont have a lot of $$$ to spend on mods at this stage, but I'll start with a UNI filter, jetting, removing the TORS etc. I previously owned a few 2 wheelers, a '84 XR 500 RE, a '93 WR 200 and a 99 KX 250 so I will see how it goes. I:I

Thanx you guys! This must be THE country to live in if your into biking whether it be quads, off-roads or road bikes. Off-road racing is a big scene over here for both quads and two wheelers, with most of my friends having bikes such as YZF450's, KTM 525's, Bomb's, raptors and banshees, me being the one with the "kiddies" quad! We got grasslands, deserts, semi- deserts, forests and everything in between(And long stretches of highway)! Will see if I can take some pics over the weekend as I will be going to the farm where I have 9000 hectares of riding space to my disposal!

Do you need a new best friend to help you use some of that riding space??? I will volunteer, as long as I can ride with ya...

Only issue is getting my quad to Africa... well maybe my new best friend (you) will pay for that right??
