Default What was your very first quad?

I just want to know what everyone started out on, what gave you the bug to keep on riding. I started with an '85 lt50, which I eventuly broke the frame.

Why should we conserve water? The more we waste and dump into the ground, the less that stays in the ocean, that floods the beaches and what not! Wasting water is the solution to the flooding in New Orleans!!! What a good plan!!

I started on an '03 Suzuki Eiger, which I still own and ride sometimes, and plow with. I now have an '07 Grizzly 450 which I ride alot more. I didn't get into ATVing until I got the 'zook, now I'm hooked.

1997 Sportsman 500. Non-H.O. and no EBS but I had EBS put on later. It still ran like brand new when it was stolen a couple years ago along with with my 2001 500 H.O.
