It would probably be easier to chop the non-road legal quad in for one that is already agri registered? I breifly looked into the cost of having a non-agri registered quad made road legal, the thing is, I believe you have to make it "road legal" and not "agri registered road legal" if that...

Agree with Glyn 1. I would lightly season the meat (salt, pepper and a few dried chilli flakes) and chuck in a hot pan to brown on all sides for only a few minutes. about 30 seconds before taking off the heat add a splash of sloe gin/raspberry gin/port and cranberry sauce. Serve the loin...

VW Tiguan? the xx4 version. Boot not massive, but the back seats fold flat giving loads of room. Pulls a trailer ok (although it does then hammer the mpg). I get about 43mpg out of my other half's 58 reg, about 37 around town). Its comfy to drive on and off road, its ok off road even with...

Oh but it would be worth the drive!!! I've seen a few youtube clips from Knob Creek, a mate of mine wanted to go there for his stag do (alass too expensive for us), it looks like a lot of fun!!!

Great offer spud! Jim

We'll know for sure when the new ones go in and I try and fire it up but yep, looks like norma may have called it right:thumb:

Thanks for the offer, turns out it was quite easy to remove the starter...wish I had just opened my eyes a bit before following a video on you tube for a trx 420...turns out the engines are quite different :oops:. All I needed to do was to undo two bolts to remove a small panel and hey presto...

Not technically broken down, just doesn't start on the button. Need to give it a tug on the chord and off it goes :)

Replacement set of brushes bought, will pull the starter out and replace them when they arrive. Having done some more digging etc i'm fairly confident that this is what the problem is. Especially as its done over 25k km, i'm guessing they have probably worn a fair bit. :roll: Still, it starts...

Its defo not the battery, thought that first. Rigged it up to jump it and it didn't make any difference, still wouldn't start and got the same buzzing noise. Will try and have a look at the starter brushes tomorrow when its light...when I work out where they are ;-)

Looking for a bit of advice from someone with some quad maintenance experience. The model is a Honda TRX 500FM, it has been working fine, but periodically it wouldn't start on the button but made the buzzing noise you can hear in the video. Its been progressively worse, as in it starts less...

A home larder is fine with one of the 150cm high fridges. Here we have one, bought off ebay for £20. It fit in the boot of my old audi estate and with a bit of work to fit the wooden frame at the top (i know not ideal but i only hang deer in here for personal consumption and I'm happy with...

Well done Louis! I bet you had a few people nervous, although i suppose if gave you a little extra time to write that speach ;-) Great to meet you and congrats on your first sika. Hopefully catch up again at some point in the future.

Looks like he's packing for a 6 month trip...making me feel like I've forgotten something....

Ha ha, my longest drag was a large sika stag (8pt but not sure of weight), worked out we dragged him about 3.5kms, some down hill, the majority along the "flat". Thankfully I had a helping hand, but it still took something like 4 hours....still one of my fondest stalking memories!
