[QUOTE="Gerald Pierce, post: 875533, member: 54639"] Went riding the atv this morning, and 2 minutes into my ride, I am idling through a blind 90 degree corner on the right side of the trail. Just as I round the corner, a 10-12 yo boy comes hauling a$$ about 50 on a 400 sport style and nails me right in the left front tire. Cracked the differential housing (500.00), bent the control arms, steering knuckle, rim, and cracked the upper brace for the diff. Minimum is 1800.00 just in parts. His dad was 1/4 mile back. Kid had no helmet, but dad was wearing one. He flew right in front of my face as he went over his handlebars. Broke his wrist and maybe his arm. No insurance, live in a mobile home, drive an old pos truck, and of course -- mine was not insured either since I own it outright. Thank goodness no body was killed, but I am about pissed right now. For you folks that have these machines -- get them insured, it is cheap. I was just down right lazy and now have to lay out about 5g to get the thing fixed or part it out and get a new one due to someone elses stupidity. [/QUOTE]
