| Hi everyone,
I just purchased my first quad. I went with the Suzuki Eiger Auto Camo 400 4x4. Mostly bought it for work around the house but also have many trails in the area to have a little fun.

| Thanks for the welcome. I got a chance this weekend to break her in and it is a very nice quad for the size. | | |  | Sep 11th, 06, 07:18 PM | | Almighty Supercook Join Date: Feb 2006 Location: Key West

| A 400 is more than enough for riding around on the trails. They just start lacking a little when you put bigger tires on em and start slinging the mud and don't have a low range like my old Kodiak 400. That was the main reason I got rid of it and moved up to the Polaris.
Good to hear that you like your bike though. | | |  | Sep 11th, 06, 07:44 PM | | Beer Wagon Driver STAFF Join Date: Jan 2006 Location: DFW, Tx.

| Welcome to the site.
I've seen Eigers do things that big bores would strain doing... they are very very tough.
Ride Safe,

| Hey guys/gals I did some ridin yesterday in the mud. I must say it is alot different than dry ground. I rolled her. Nothing major. Just started to tip so I jumped off. I had to push it back over and it started right back up. Is there any harm if the quad goes upside down?
I love this thing! | | |  | Sep 13th, 06, 09:09 AM | | Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2006 Location: L.A. (Lower Alabama0

| If it goes upside down in water..you may have a BIG problem. Otherwise I don't think so. Hope you had a helmet on.  | | |  | Sep 13th, 06, 09:11 AM | | Junior Member Join Date: Sep 2006 Location: Pittsburgh

Im starting to make my own trails right in my backyard. Where I live now is one of the best places in the pittsburgh area for trails. Miles of trails all around my house. BTW the area is on Fawn twp if there are any other Steel City riders around. | | |  | Sep 13th, 06, 09:12 AM | | Junior Member Join Date: Sep 2006 Location: Pittsburgh

| Steelers stink cause they have 5 Superbowl rings and are defending NFL champs...
And it aint the Patriots...
As a matter of fact, I couldnt find many of those droves of fans that NE had the year before...
