All knowledge a click away; brick and mortar stores rapidly disappearing; name some things that are ONLY available online.*


*If they're available at all in any way other than online, they don't count.

  • I'm sure someone sells them in brick and mortar but Chinese ATV and Dirt-bike parts I only ever found online.

    They're available in both retail and wholesale at many locations, especially throughout China. This answer, unfortunately, does not count.

  • No thanks. Everything they make falls apart. I would hate to be racing up a hill or jumping and have something fall off. I'll pass.

  • Oh hell no.   They are dirt-road casual riders at best.

  • I have one because it was free and had less 25 hrs. on it.  ( Person had to move and dind't have a way to bring the big stuff)

    I'll hunt down parts and fix anything if I can and you pay me.  Some of the newer ones aren't 100% terrible, but not good either. The main thing, and this is big, I've noticed is they are torqued down how they should be and needs thread locker.  So if someone just wants a casual ride and doesn't mind dismantling and reassembling it I guess it's okayish. Hey, at least I noticed on a few that they learned not to use coarse threads in heavy vibration.  Only took them 10 years. HA!
    Plus it's kind of fun beating a POS into the ground just to kick it's @**.

    Yeah I've gotten into a few of them. There pretty much junk. This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at February 26, 2017 10:00 AM MST

  • I was always partial to KTM and Kawasaki.   Love the old Honda ATC's.   I wish they still made three-wheelers.

  • KTM's are great bikes!

  • Yeah they are.   Yamaha's are nothing to scoff at either.  Prolly the best bang for the buck but they seem a little obsessed with top end speed.  Who really uses that on the trail?

  • I used to race cross-country races and you needed that top end! My ATK was clocked at 83 mph and still had some throttle left!

  • Good point.

    I know it has it's place.  I ridden a few Yamaha 450 4strokes and the top speed was really good but rarely had the chance to get there or stay there.  Good bikes though, not putting them down by any means.  I'm not a great rider  either.  I do more trail breaking and putting around than jumping and hard riding on quads and dirt bikes. Torque in the turns is what tends to fit my kind riding. That's another problem with the Chinese bikes.   The rear sprockets are way too small IMHO.
    Water is more my thing.

    LOL!  Have you ever seen Charlene's McScuseme video "rant"? She's someone else to add to your family.  (I think she is the same woman who is playing the Russian mother).

  • Harry THAT is hilarious!
    I am still laughing...and then when you get to the end, the deal-clincher is that "MaMA comes too, and so it is like two virgins in one package..."

    People get married to Russian brides both with without going online, so unfortunately, this answer does not count.

    Well, getting married would be done in person but aren't the mail order brides only online and not through newspapers anymore?  How else does one meet a Russian mail order bride in today's world? And, more importantly, how do YOU know the ins and outs of this intricate process? What are you hiding? :-p This post was edited by Harry at February 26, 2017 11:54 AM MST
