LOL It's really good fun
Battle Pony won the cosplay competition at UK Ponycon . In turn the con raised money for riding for the disabled. If you put mine half way between a darlec costume and a furry you're in the right place.
And like off-roading and robot wars, you couldn't find a nicer bunch of folk
Anyhoo, you can be a bit of an extrovert and I think you would get a kick out of it if you tried it!
Also, Thankyou Miss GED, I'm glad you like it

But it comes alive if you prance about in it
Otherwise it's just a thing
Also, I'm guessing you don't want a link to the 30 second vid that I just made.....
Also, Thankyou
Also, I'm not saying it would have been quicker to build a new trailer, but I cut a load more off yesterday and there isn't a lot left!

It sure is taking a while. Terry brought me two wheel and tyre tonight so it is getting there. I can remember how I just got on with building it when I was 20, but that was a lot of pulled muscles ago
Also he said the old wheel was nearly rotted through !
Just as well it's in for a major re-fit then

Finally realised my dream and bought me a quad. And I bought me a Welsh made one, an 850cc Diablo. (Super rare)
It’s old, been in storage for a decade and despite the 222 hours on the clock it is pretty well foobard
But I don’t care, because I’m having fun fitting it with a post crane and dozer blade

Not necessarily... they are not on as normal - which tends to push the grip out to the sides of the tyres thus loosing it
Tyres on this way around pulls the grip into the centre of the tyre trapping it until the tyre rolls over it...

I welded on the front implement rack today that I stamped out at work in 3mm steel.
Gotta do something with this CVT drive though. It bites half way through it’s travel and then launches itself

It was waaaay to heavy for handle bars before I put the crane on. It made a D-bat Polaris feel light weight. It is actually side-by-side sized as well. And because the engine is big the seat doesn’t really work out. (Never did, that’s why they didn’t sell)
To my surprise it can still be ridden from the seat
I figured it would be a reach too far, but because it is so easy to turn it works. Easiest is to sit on the carrier. For acurate reversing you can sit side-saddle.
Anyhoo, basic upshot is that the wrist breaking horror has been tamed
Next mod is to fit a locking hub to the rear axel.
