I think Ihave seen a bunch of 4Runner owners on here. I am looking at buying a buddy’s 4Runner and thought it would be a good idea to check out the year/series on a 4runner forum. I have seen a few: 4runners.com, toyota-4runner.org, toyotanation.com, toyota120.com, 4runnerforum.com, yotatech, and there are probably more.
Anyone have advice on which forums are well respected or just that I should focus on?
Hey guys, after a busy summer working, quading, and fishing I’ve started thinking about buying a motorcycle. I’m thinking that it would make longer trips far more enjoyable, and I would save quite a bit on fuel for the everyday things to and around town with it. I’ve been talking to a guy at the dealership I work at and he has a suzuki vx800 for sale for $2500. I know the guy and completely trust that everything is mechanically sound on it, and I took a drive on it today and it felt great.
Now, this seems like the perfect bike for me, but being a fairly new rider and having only rode 2 dirt bikes for a short time and then this test drive on the vx800, I’ve been warned that this is far too much bike for me. I find this crazy, seeing as I test drove it and the weight of the bike felt fine and the power was completely controllable, so I’m bit lost as to what to do in that regard. I’ve been recommended to insteadgo with something like a kawasaki ninja 300 or a small dual purpose bike to compliment my hobby of going fishing every chance I get. Although this seems reasonable for me starting off, I think I will just find myself soon wanting a bike more suited for more highway riding and longer trips.
I was just wondering what the gc community had to say about this. I’ve always received great advice here so I figure its worth a try to test everyone’s knowledge on motorcycles before jumping into it :gcrules:
I’m completely new to almost everything about this, so any advice whatsoever related to bikes would be greatly appreciated, whether its specifically for my case or more for riding in general. Thanks guys!

Well after a few calls from a local company , they finally persuaded me come to work for them and i couldn’t ask for a nicer office and a new 1up machine… Used well but climbs and tows like a dream.. A little rough in the suspension dept but all in all i’m pleased……
The front brake lever on my 2005 Kodaik 400 has no play and the brakes are at least partially stuck on. Thinking I had a clog in the brake lines, I replaced them all and rebuilt the master cylinder. After bleeding the system, the brakes seemed to work good…at least in my driveway. Not 15 minutes into my first ride, the exact same thing happened again.
The pads are good so all that is left is the rotors and caliper pistons.
well, rolled the 700 and bent the racks. they don’t like to be bent back whatsoever. Anyone know where to get them cheap? they are like 200 a piece from the dealer
Hi guys, I just bought a 2016 Grizzly SE. I do a lot of cold weather riding and need to purchase a windshield. I have not had much success finding one. Anybody know of any that will fit the 16 model?
Thanks in advance!
