Sorry to hear about Tyler's quad. Hope that this dosen't discourage him from getting another ATK/Dale.

Had a similar problem. The fuel hose ruptured while I was riding. The only thing that let me know this was happening was my back tire getting real loose in the corners. This was on my motard BTW.
OMG, That is horrible, geez. Never heard of a Dale burning up, guess I better put that on my "things to keep an eye out for" list.
That was pretty cool what you did haydug, that deserves a "Thataboy". If I had any parts I didnt need I'd through some that way to. Hope everything goes better in the future for him, of course it will be hard to top that.

That makes me sick to the stomach...I can't imagine watching my quad burn.
I sponsored Tyler with a wiring harness update...which obviously was not fireproof. Tyler helped me by promoting the idea along with his dad Tim. I will donate a new harness for his new ride and some $$ from the harnesses that are sold. Tyler is a great kid....and EXTREMELY fast. I think the wind friction from speed caught it on fire.
