IM heading down to PA tomorrow to do some riding at Majestic Trails. (http://www.majestictrails.com)
Anyone here ride? Your welcome to join myself and my buddies. I here good things about this place so we figured we'd give it a try.

If anyone is up for riding in the future let me know. I have a '87 Honda TRX 250X with a built motor that I did myself and my new toy that I picked up two months ago an '06 Kawi Brute Force 650 SRA. IM always up for riding.

I would love to go, but I sold mine. I need to get a 4 wheeler again.

I just sold my polaris 600 with only 30 hours on it.

I was messing around with some other people's 4 wheelers, running through fields and creeks and mud. What a blast! They mentioned majestic a few times. Guess it is a cool place to play. Have fun!

I've been on them once or twice. SOme guys I know and do some work for have a couple Suzuki? Z400's. MAN those things fly.. they top out close to 75mph, which is pretty scary when you dont have 3500lbs of steel around you.

So majestic was a good time. The trails were in good shape, some nice jumps, even a descent MX track. I was all excited when I got there, one of the guys told us they have a black diamond hill and that its pretty steep. Basically told us some pointers for it and telling us to use 4-low and don't stop. After an hour of riding we find it, yeah I was disappointed. IT was no black diamond hill. I flew up it in 2-wheel with the front wheels up and a huge rooster most of the way. I guess im used the hills behind my house that make that hill a bunny hill.

Not sure if you guys are familiar with kawi's brute force. But to give a small run down mine is the 650cc model V-twin w/ strait rear axle. I'm not a fan of the feel of Independent rear. Ive had it top out at 73 and I can pull most sport quads. Only times I have trouble pulling them out of the hole is when I have to let off to bring the front end down. Not bad for a 600lb work horse 4x4. It will even blow donuts and smoke the rears. Its basically a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Here's a good review of the machine w/ a video. Only difference is this one is rear independent were mine is strait rear axle.

I'm familiar with the deceptive nature of kawasakis.
