yeah I remember the dangers. I am not really going to be using it to race around on. I have a bad back and the place I hunt is a long ways in the woods. Makes for a miserable week if I shoot a deer and have to drag it out without help of an ATV, and I don't really have the $$$ to drop several grand on a new or used 4 wheeler. I got this Yamaha 3 wheeler for $550 and it appears to be in as good shape as some of the used 4 wheeler for a lot more$$. I think 4 the price difference I can just make sure I am a little more careful when using it
Last year Dad and I used a hand truck with pnuematic tires to haul our deer out and I still wound up hurting pretty bad for jsut about a week after that day.
I will probably get a little fun riding in during the off season but mostly it'll be for hunting.
The nice thing about this Yamaha is it has a rear suspension. A lot of the old 3 wheelers had no suspension in the rear this one does.
Anyway I pick it up tonight. I guess I will get to ride it a bit and report back on how I like it.
If the only thing it does is hauls the deer out of the woods without making my back hurt for a week I will love it
