One of the reasons they suck-they're extremely unstable at high speeds

1st gear

These damn things lasted though about 8 minutes of 3rd and 4th gear burnouts on plywood before the center was smooth (and apparently this is longer than a barnett clutch lasts, cause that bitch was SMOKED!)
 
its ******* insane to put a tire like that one there.. they are **** just cant see why atv manufactures put such shity tires on thier atvs knowing that the tires are dangerous and a poor design

its the same as being in 5th or 6th gear, revving it up and dumping the clutch...it wont do anything, just jerk and stall
 
not really, because you have the rotating mass of the rear tires spinning at an equivalent 70 mph, plus the engine's rotating mass. It probably would have shot forward 10 or 15 feet before it stalled, or maybe popped up and stopped on the grab bar. It definitely wouldn't have just jerked and shut off.
 
This is the best one I could find

If you haven't caught on yet, he repaints this thing a lot. It's been dull yellow, bright yellow, blue, red, then it got orange honda 250r plastics which were repainted silver, black, and is now blue with a carbon fiber hood(sitting behind my shed under a tarp broken down for the last 6 ******* months)
