Adrenaline Junkie!

Buying more toys as usual. Did you see the max IV i just got. It should make it to the next Busco. You fully recovered from the ride Fred?

Hey Fred,

Great meeting you too. Look forward to riding with you again in October. That Hustler of yours is pretty sweet!

Hi Fred, Thanks for the updates. You did very well on your build and I can't wait to see it! I'll be in late Thursday night/early Friday morning with MaxIVMark and AmphibiousDrew. See you soon.

How is it going pal? Hustler moving along well i see. I knew at Busco when you drove JP"s machine you were going to get one.lol Can''t wait to see it at Busco. I have been finishing up the Crush. Throttle done, just got to put the clutch on the engine and adjust the suspension and she will be ready to go around the track. Can't wait to try out the new ponies on the track. How is Minka and will she have her own machine this ride, she seemed to have a great time and we look forward to meeting all again.

Hi Fred, Unfortunately there is no paint that will stick to the Max body since it's made of HDPE "poly" plastic. Your best bet is to try and get a blem upper body from Recreatives. They sell them for a pretty decent price. I MIGHT possibly have a triple sprocket for a BIGFOOT, but I'd have to look. If I don't have one I think I could probably make a few calls and round one up for you. How's the progress on the machine coming?

Hey man, Everything is good. Been working on more AATVs......should have them together for Busco so you guys will have to take them for a test drive.
Hustlers are AWESOME and you guys gotta get one, or two or three. A 950 is the same exact frame as the 980 BIGFOOT. The only thing you have to do is get a piece of flat steel to raise the seat frame up a little to fit in the deeper tub....6X6World member Meinfeld did this. All of the 1 3/16" axles on them are solid, and even with my 26x13x12 Vampire ASX tires, I have not been able to bend them. I'd say you'd be fine with them. Hydromike and I just welded a few pieces of steel around the stock T-20 transmission cradle and it holds it down just fine. I'm glad I'm the reason that you guys caught the Hustler bug......they're great machines. Add some big mud tires and a V-twin and you'll go anywhere and your machine will be just as good or better than a new machine. Let me know if there's anything else I can do for you.

Sorry it took so long to get back to you. I am located near Dublin. There are a couple of places in the area, but noting to special. We have some land with creeks and trails that are fun if it ever rains.

good ride last weekend, call me when u can so we can get up on that poly tank. Hans 864-303-7722
