Today after a short ride in my Max II, I was flying in my backyard (25mph) and I tried fitting through where my Hustler BIG FOOT was parked and a pine tree. Well there wasnt too much space, and I didnt keep in mind that the grass was wet and the rear left tire hit the rear left tire of my Hustler. The Max suffered a little ding in the rim and a bent solid axle. The Hustler also suffered a slightly bent axle. One guy that had rode sport bike with me when I lived in Georgia told me that everytime you go out and do crazy things you keep getting confident and you push it a little more each time you go out. Eventually if you dont keep your limits in mind, you get over confident and make a mistake. In this case, it wasnt really bad, the Max axle needed to be replaced because it was worn around the bearing and water would leak in there, and the Hustler's axle already had a slight bend in it as well. Luckily I have some good 6x6 friends that have the parts ready to go for me and both machines will be fixed this week. Just keep this in mind the next time you go out and do some crazy 6 wheeling. Keep your limits in mind and dont get over confident......just something to think about.
