First of all, I have no problems with ANY age who replies on this forum,from age 1 to 100. It's the IDIOTS we can't stand,the ones who take a semi-sane post and turn it into a childish free for all of insults. My son is 11,very well mannered, and most of the friends he hangs around with are ok,too. As long as you have something useful to say or share,age is not a consideration. I have read these forums for a few years,and learned a lot,and shared some of my opinions and experience,and never saw a need to run down any one's choice of ride,or opinions. I have disagreed with plenty of people here,but kept it civil,and I expect the same from everyone else.
To everyone who has worked hard for the quads they ride,I say,good for you!! Earning the money instead of hours and days of whining to mommy for the cash will give you a lot better feeling every time you swing a leg over your ride,and teach you responsibility for proper care of it (if you are also paying for the repairs!!)
So let's all stick to the subject,grow up a little, and show everyone who reads these posts you CAN be a valid part of these forums,no matter if you are 12,or over 40(ya, I'm OLD !!)
Signed, the proud parent of a soon-to-be 12 year old !!!

Message to all the adults:
Can you imagine if we had invested 10,000.00 in some good mutual funds before we where the age of 18? We would be loaded by the age of 35
When I was 12 the oppurtunity for me to make 5.00 an hour didn't exist let alone 10.00 but even if it did my parents wouldn't have allowed me to buy three quads, one maybe but not three.
They tought me the importance of saving money!

Posted by: NorthernEdge

If you last post was aimed at me perhaps you should go back and reread my last post!
I didn't say anything about your parents and as far as investing money wisely, nothing has changed!

and by the way I didn't "require" anything !!!!!!

springboy-In 10 yrs you are going to look back at yourself now, and it's going to be good for a REAL LAUGH!!! Hey, I'm laughing at myself from just last week. Everybody is welcome to their opinions, but don't take yourselves so seriously!!!

Yzguy, amen to that "Don't take yourself too seriously"

springboy, don't hurt your arm patting yourself on the back, ok? You may want to take some time off from farming duties to learn about grammer, punctuation and spelling. You can tell us how smart you are all day long but if you can't spell or punctuate your sentences any better than a 8 year old, who's going to believe you.

mathmutichion's LOL!!!! Dude, you're killing me!!! mathmutichion's - Too funny!!!

Anyway, I actually do respect kids that earn their own cash, I'll give you that. The kids I respect on here are the ones that when you read the messages that they wrote you have no idea it was written by a 12 year old. Know what I mean?

<< bu huhu i feel sorry for you cause YOU need to get over your self, little alien boy. no one cares about your raptor, so get over your self, this is exactly how dumb you soundd. ha. YOUR RAPTOR omg wow does anyone care. >>



LOL, just the response I had expected from this 12 yr old. I feel bad for the 12 yr olds on this board that this kid makes look bad.

Posted by: warrior007

good for you, attaboy! wow, 10 hours a day.. when do you get time to post on the forum, or ride for that matter? your an inspiration to all.


Posted by: warrior007



<< Are you requiring that my parents arent responsible?
They taught me save money, but when it not your money you cant have too much say so can you.
And times have changed.

ahhh shuuddup allready

Most online discussion boards limit ages to 13 and over. I wonder why? legal reasons? So someone obviously has a problem with 12 yr olds on the net.

Posted by: mich660griz

i have a quick question. do you go to school? if so, then you probibally only work 2 or 2 1/2 months a year, right? witch means you would have saved for how many years to buy them? thats not the real issue here though!
at 12 years old, you, AND YOUR PARENTS, should be more concerned with your future! i might be wrong, but where i live, it's ellegal to work a 12 year old more than 20 hours a week! other than that though, is the logic of this post. your trying to show us how good you are, and what you've accomplished in your long life. guess what, we have too. been there, done that!!! as an adult you will realize that the person who patts themselfs on the back, has a following of 1. we all love to hear stories about great things being done for others, and the pride that follows in it. work is not great, or something to brag about, it's life!!! i work, and so do others. try helping handycapped kids through there life. clean a house of an eldery person, or join in a city cleanup crew. that is something to talk about!!! now, slow down on work, you'll have a lifetime for that. study, give a helping hand, and go to collage, so you can brag about what you've done!!!

WOW springboy thats an odd name from a farm boy.i agree with your no' yes guy's i too was raised on a farm and the hour's of work he speaks of is realistic and the amount of money he speaks of is realistic. but no self respecting farm boy would call himself springboy.so could you please explaine the name.PLEASE

ps guy's 12 -16 hrs is standard work hours on a farm.and i was making 7.50 hr @ the age of 17 im 39 now figure that out.not bad for a summer.

ps: If th greatcanadain is rigth please don't respond go away!!!!!!

Posted by: GreatCanadian

i have never provided input to such a immature thread BUT....i gotta weird feeling here....i don't think that springboy is a 12 year old kid....more like a 30 year old pervert...i'm outta here.

Posted by: HondaGuy300EX

well good job springboy your a damn insperation story!!

Posted by: HondaGuy300EX

Hmmm.somethin isnt right...10hours a day?? how many days a week, how much money do you get an hour? How many years have you been working? 8,695....damn thats alot of money for a 12 year old.. Wouldnt you have had to start workin when you were about 7 or 8 to earn that money??

Posted by: HondaGuy300EX

Okay 400$ a month,12,000+ a year. Where do you work. Who for cause i need a job like that...I've gotta say now thats a hell of an acomplishment for a 12yr old and i gotta say good job.. Lets stop pickin on this kid cause even tho he may be full of imself, at least he has a job payin for his bikes!!! Good job man,and by the way.. how the hell do you fit on that prarie???

I don't know much about suzuki 125s,but a 220 bayou new was around 2800.00$ and a 650P about 6500.00$That is 9300.00$ for a 12 year,man I need to start farming,just imagine Dad's salary!!
What is the first thing you check when your diesel tractor starts spewing white smoke and stalls,this is an easy one.

Did you just get a computer or just found this forum?

Posted by: biggin

What is sarcasm,oh great one?Please enlighten all of of us ignorant folks.What is this about parents have no say? You are a great character.I believe warrior007 said it best,&quot;ahhh shuuddup allready&quot;!

&quot;Well I wasn't gonna say anything, but&quot;.....

Posted by: RyGuy660

You know, I'm usually am pretty easy going, but I've got to say........Springbrat, I DON'T LIKE YOU.....GO AWAY.
(there, that feels better)

Posted by: Greezemonkey

Good for you jr.
You should be happy with your accomplishments. Boy was I ripped off. Here I was and am working on the farm, and when i was your age, all I got was a roof over my head and food in my belly. It must be nice to work on a farm where all you have to work is 10hrs a day. lmao
btw, I don't think people have a problem with 12 yr olds on the net, they just have a problem with all the bashing and arguing that goes on. Most of us are here to get info and offer any help we can to fellow riders. Unfortunately most of the nonsense is started by the young immature guys (present company excluded I am sure).

Boy that would be sweet
10 g's that long ago.........
oh well, hard to come up with 10 g's now lol

Posted by: yamblaster98

i would advise springboy to go to school and learn how to type, speak atleast at a level where people can uderstand most of his words.

Can't we all just GET ALONG?????
(LOL).....
The Information Highway has wrought some good and bad things on all who decide to ride on it.

Like the old saying goes...
Someone is always going to PEE in the pool...

Posted by: springboy

well when you work 10 hours a day and dont have any house, truck payments.etc.etc and you live with your parents thats not too hard to come by. well, i presume you mean smoke, usally when you see white smoke in a tractor that either means its about had, or antifreeze is getting into the engine and for that to happen you would have to have something cracked block or something. now if you are talking about steam then a top wasent put on the radiator correctly and the tractor over heated and blew the top and water on the hot engine causing steam...... duh.
if its black smoke you have the tractor in too high of a gear pulling to heavy of a load. cause your putting too much stress on the engine and the tractor may stall. if your on a older model john deere 3020 or so and it stalls while your on a hill you can push on the brakes all you want but you wont have any............... just thought id clear all that up for ya. even though you didnt ask.
