32:1 with 93 octane. I think it was maybee going south when the top end went, and now that the top end is strong, the bottom end decided to fall apart

yeah.....tell me about it, but this was the third thing to go wrong, so I think I will be safe, first it was the rad lines, then the next weekend the top end went, then weeks later (first day back) the bottom end goes
Posted by: Hammer trx450r
Probably metal shavings from top end going

yeah, It could have been part of the ring lance that broke of my last piston.....but the funny thing is, I trained my bottom end, I guess I didn't flush it good enough....

Next time, turn it upside down and spray brake cleaner up in there while rotating the rod.

yeah man, sorry I left on ya last weekend,

Hey guys, im new to the sport, Live in Northern NJ by the newark area. Looking for a good place to ride, i have some lake property in Oakridge, it borders picatinny arsenal about 700 acres, fun place to ride but getting old. Could use some recomendations on where to ride in NJ. If anybody could tell me how big Chatsworth is or if its worth the trip down there I would appreciate it.
Thanks

How can 700 acres get old?!?!
Chatsworth is pretty big. It has 1 quad track, a mx track, an intermediate track (which suprisingly is kinda fun), a beginner track, and 2 sets of trails. The trails are pretty long. In my opinion if you are driving specifically for the track and you are a beginner then it would be worth the trip. Chats has a lot of rider/beginner friendly jumps and there is nothing there that will really put you in over your head.

Here's talk about a new local park just weeks away from opening.
http://www.AllTerrainRiders.com/for...showtopic=10674
They changed some of their initial policies and lowered their prices due to the feedback they recieved. There's a pre-ride of the park taking place this weekend. Hopefully we'll be hearing good reviews of the place real soon.
Posted by: yamahamx14
Anybody going this weekend? I'll be down there this weekend or next weekend. I'll be riding a yellow 400ex if I go this weekend, or a CRF450R if I go next weekend.

What location are you talking about?
Posted by: LT250_JOE
CHATSWORTHLESS WILL BE CLOSED AT THE END OF 2007 THANKS TO THE TREEHUGGERS.
THEY WERE PROMISED A NEW LOCATION IN THE PINE BARRENS BUT ARE NOW BEING BLOWN OFF BY THE POLITICIANS. MUST BE THE SAME J-BAGS THAT CLOSED PARAGON.
Posted by: deathman53
I remember in 04 when 5 off-road parks were promised by Campell by the end of 05. What happened to this??????? There is more to the issue than just the politicians, the enviro-quacks are bickering about some frogs, snakes, plants, etc(funny though the location they were gonna use is an abanonded sand pit) and also the locals don't want it there. Two powerfull forces and combined with a state that can't care about dirtbikes/atv's, its a very hard winning situation.
Posted by: Crazy lil punk
I am going to try and make it out to chatts on saterday, on my 400ex, and my 50
my 400 will look sorta like this...with 450r shocks and renthals

Ill be on a red 05 CRF450R and my friend will be riding a white 04 TRX450R. We usually park right in front of the quad track, so if anybody feels like riding just come on down.

Posted by: yamahamx14
that would be sick! If you get it definetly bring that to Chats instead of the 400, or bring both. I think those trails are better suited for a dirtbike because they're pretty narrow.
Posted by: naw0029
Yo guys, i havent been to the park in about a year because blue diamond is closer but they are closed tomorow so i an going to make the trip up. Is the track in "rideable" shape? Im no pro and only want a good time but i have heard some bad stories. Is the price still 50 for the day and most of all are they open for sure tomorrow??? Thanks in advance

hey were you the kid on the 85 pingin around behind me on the intermediate track while i was stuck behind some kid on a CRF230? Those 85's are anoying as hell!
Does anybody ride the trails at chats anymore? I was in them most of the day and only saw about 4 people.
Posted by: deathman53
I actually do ride the trails there. I think the atv track is horrible, well now its not groomed very bad, but its very boring and its all flat landings.

Justin they would let you on but they would pull everyone off and give you like 30 min at a time. would be a great place for a rhino
Posted by: jrspawn
Sounds good, ill have to check it out then.
Id think after seeing that its far from a stock rhino and what its capable of, they wouldnt have a problem letting me run with others on the track
Thank you
Justin
Posted by: Hammer trx450r
I'm sure its sick Justin, is this the new hobby i guess? Have you been to blue lately, whats going on down there?
We went to Atco last night and had a blast, track was perfect!
Posted by: jrspawn
Yeah, ive always said i needed to build a crazy race rhino. So i just said what the heck, im doing it. I figured someone out here on the east coast needs to set the par Yeah ive been to blue a good bit here lately. They are still digging out back, but we changed the layout dramatically back there, not even close to the same layout. I love the way it is now, except there is hardly any jumps. Seem whenever we spend a day building some sick stuff there, thats the next section to be dug But i can say the guys there for the MX side do everything they can with the track with the little time they have to make something for us back there.
Ill have to see when exactly ill be able to make it up to chatts and see if any of you guys are gonna be there also.
Thank you
Justin

I WROTE A LETTER TO CHATTS THIS MORNING ABOUT LETTING QUAD ON THE MX TRACK OR RE-DESIGNING THE ATV TRACK FOR "EXPERT" ATV RIDERS. IF THE LETTER IS NOT ENOUGH TO MAKE MOTIVATION I WILL CREATE A PETION, AND WE ALL MUST WORK TOGETHER TO GET SOMETHING DONE.
SO! LETS GIT R' DONE!!!!!!
Posted by: yamahamx14
the mx track isn't much better than atvmx track. plus, last time I went there most of the people on the atv track looked like they didn't even belong on that track, so going on the mx track or making the atv track bigger wouldn't work. If you want REAL mx then go to atco, blue diamond, or Etown.

I'm not exactly sure about what you mean by thank you, but let me just clarify what I was trying to say. All I mean was that its not like the people at Chats take better care of the mx track compared to the atv track. Maintenence on everything there is slow. A lot if the time I wish they would let me take my bike because the ruts and jumps on the mx track are terrible. Last time I went, a lot of people on the atv track weren't even clearing or attempting to clear the table tops. They were just popping of the lip and rolling the rest of the way. Don't get me wrong there was a handful of people there that were ripping and clearing everything there. But, from what it sounds like from recent events with the chatsworth staff it doesn't not look like they'r making any major changes anytime soon. I'm all for big changes, but it will be tough. So, all I have to say is good luck. If you need to do a petition or are going to do that letter thing, shoot me a copy and I'll give to all my quad rider friends (which is pretty much everyone I ride with).

I was just trying to be a smart *** saying that, lol, just fun, no hard feelings intended to be hurt there. Thanks for the support man, I am hoping to atleast get some motivation going, but the last time I was there the ATV track looked smooth, but I was on my 85 so I didnt get to ride it. I would really like to get quads on the MX track for maybee and hour or so a day, they could even let the dirtbikers on with us, I wouldnt care.

I see where your comig from on the whole petiton thing and i would like to see them change also but aren't they losing down in a year or so? I mean why would they want to change chatsworth if they are closing down, and they still do have buisness every weekend. I think there just going to keep things the way they are until the curtain closes. I'm not trying to be mean or anything just adding my .02.
Posted by: yamahamx14
Since chatts is closing are they going to move to a different location or is the NJORVP done for good? 
Posted by: deathman53
they were gonna move to an abanoded sand pit in Monroe Nj(~1/2 hr south), but apparenty the frogs, snakes and plants hold more value than we do. How could a sand pit converted to an atv park do more damage??? Did I also meantion that there is worlds of rider cut trails on/about the sand pits property??? The locals don't want it either, they say it will create alot of noise and illegal riders(like there isn't already?????). Basicly trees, frogs, snakes and plants hold more value than we do. What ever happened to campell saying that there were gonna be 5 atv parks by end of 05???? We are still at one, posted for closing at septemper of 08.
Posted by: ericatv10
I saw in my local paper they are building a nice park in milvilee don't know the specs but it was approved.

How can making the sand pit area legal draw a illegal riders? 
That makes absolutely no sense. What sucks is that chatts is the only legal trail system in NJ. I got a bike so Englishtown and Atco are always an mx option but no trails. It's really pissin me off. What are they doing to the chattsworth property anyway? Build houses?!? WTF!! It's in the middle of nowhere.
Posted by: deathman53
no, they are going to re-claim the area, Basically, bulboze it flat and plant alot of tress. Haven't you seen the reduction in parking and trails in the past 3 years??? This is the re-clamation program already in effect. I know what the people are saying makes no sense, I would think that it will bring business to the area, a bike shop a mile or so from the park, gas station, Wawa/7-11/quick check or some kind of convince store, maybe a deli. It would bring alot of people to the area, yes, there will still be illegal riding, but not as much, what was illegal is now legal. I'm sure there will be parts that the park doesn't own/doesn't allow people on. You know there is alot more trails in chattworth's property than they allow us on??? They are for special events only. ALso, I doubt anybody is gonna notice the increase in noise, over the already loud sand pit riding. If anything it will be quieter, as you will bring fathers/sons/daughters with wisper quiet pipes.
Sadly the park is doomed, between the nj dep/epa, crazy locals, sierra club and how the people are already pissed over the rampant illegal riding. They are gonna stop this park the same way that they stop construction they don't want, suing over one plant/animal, one issue at a time and tiying(sp) it up in court for years untill they just give up on the park/run out of money. This is why I have a street plated dirtbike w/ all the tags, so nobody can tell me I'm not allowed to ride in certain areas. With alot of the state property, state forsts and wma's, you are allowed to drive your car/truck there, you are allowed to ride your reg/ins/inspect dirtbike also.

I had heard that the orv park might be located in Williamstown almost right behind my house.It is still in process,but nothing has been done about it yet this year.One problem about it being there was when the land was sold by the sand company and it was bought by pinelands,greenpeace,or some other organization that wants to save trees and animals,the property is already a NJ wildlife preserve.Another problem is that there are houses that are right across the street and they dont want to hear the noise. There was big talk about it opening up a couple years ago but I have not heard almost nothing since then.I was thinking about opening a cycle shop right around the corner from there but nothing is happening wih the park.

I could see people being concerned about the noise, thats why I don't understand why they are chasing us out of the current spot, there isn't any one around for miles.

Im sure ill take my quad to a shop that is owned by a guy with "duct tape will fix it" in his sig
Posted by: brokenmike
Come on... havent you used duct tape to keep the axle nut from backing off on your quad? It works every time.Plus I couldnt think of anything else to put on there. I think that they are forcing us out of our park to make us ride illegaly so when we get caught we have to give the state money for tickets and the impound yards money to get YOUR bike out

yeah, it cracks me up, the state makes tax money off us buying atvs/dirtbikes, but there is no where really to ride them legally
Posted by: brokenmike
Part of the tax money should go to places for us to ride

why would anyone spend good money to ride chatsworth? my backyard track is better... and has anyone that works there ever heard of grooming the track? 
sure doesnt look like it. seriously they should charge like $15 to ride that place, or just finally close down

Because not everbody has a backyard track and can go riding whenever they please to. And with there being so few places to ride in NJ expecially for quads chatts isn't that bad considering that there is a lot more than just a track there. The trails at chats are good and worth the money. Also, for most of the people there can't even do 80 foot tables and 100 foot step ups, so the track there is good for they're ability level. If you want a full blown mx track, drive the extra half hour and go to atco, but for a variety of riding types chats is good and worth the money.
Posted by: mx1791
i do ride atco/englishtown. but the point to my last post is seat time is seat time and if chats was cheaper to ride it would be an ok place to ride. but for the price they charge i can roll around in my driveway and have a better time.. you would think with all the money they make they could atleast make the jumps jumpable. i went there 2 times and both times all the lips had giant holes in them. couldnt even consider them ruts they where so big and deep. if they dont care about the track why keep it open

if you would get there at a good time, like before 930, you would see a much better track
Posted by: mx1791
both times i got there early. the tracks just a pos. and i wont argue about it. anyone who rides e town or atco and then chats will agree. they deff. dont groom that place everyday, but they should seriously think about doing so.
i heard they where moving to a better spot from some lady that works there but this was last season. is this true? i'd probably find out if i read this thread but im not reading 58 pages

im with mx1791 on this one chats would be ok if it were better maintained but the way the keep it i hope it does get shut down

Because the people that aren't expierienced enough to ride etown or atco continue to go to chats because it is a good place to learn and get better without seriously injuring themselves or anyone around them since the jumps are very managable. At etown they got the 100 foot tall staircase step up! Do you think some kid with a 250ex thats been riding for 2 months is going to be able to hit that? At atco they got a they got a 90 foot table and a big ***** step down. Now, do you think that some kid with a clapped out blaster with stock suspension is going to have any fun trying to jump that. I don't think so. On top of that, have you ever seen the MX track? Its packed everyweekend, along with every other track there. Even with a slow atv crowd, Chats is still bringing in plenty of business.

yupp
CHATS+FRIENDS = FUN RIDE/HANG OUT
I AM SORRY THAT WE ALL CANT PAY A $35 TO RIDE AT ATCO AND ONLY GET AN HOUR OF TRACK TIME.
CANT PEOLE JUST BE HAPPY THAT THEY ARE RIDING AND NOT SITTING ON THE COUCH?
Posted by: mx1791
well the step down at atco is gone... we get more then an hour of track time..
and i get the point that its a place to learn, but you cant learn to jump when the lips are sooo bad that you'll flip if you attempt to jump. when i went to atco for the first time i had never jumped in my life AND i was on a bone stock quad, but i learned.
now like i said i dont wanna argue. it is better that we're riding and not on the couch
Posted by: yamahamx14
I'm just curious, if you have nothing positive or even worth while to say then why are you even in this thread?
Posted by: Hammer trx450r
Some people think if they can make all the jumps at a track then its a lame track. The people who ***** about it being rough and "its got rutts in the lip", have never raced before. Raceday conditions are horrible at best so you better practice in the same. The reason the track gets bad is because of all the slower riders jumping. A slower guy will use alot more throttle up the face untill destroying the lip from tire spin. If everyone would jump with more speed and less throttle it would hold up alot better.
Posted by: mx1791
yea tell me i dont race, i could easily proove you wrong.. anyway since i see im upsetting you chatsworth lovers ill leave this thread
Posted by: Over-land 450r
hey girls whats up???? Im gonna set everything straight rite now. This thread was to see who all was goin to go to chatts bak in the day.
Chatts does suck. b.c. there is only 4 jumps and its a circle. i love wen tracks get ruff. it seperates the men from the boys. lol.(doug digger gust) < watch huevos 8)

Bike or quad man?

Bike. I got a CRF450R, but the stator is shot and I need a new one. I'm looking to sell it for a 250 two stroke, so if I could find a bike or borrow one of my friends then I will be riding. I ride bikes but ill ride anything just to ride.

why are dirtbikers on a QUAD ONLY forum? not that i have a problem with them but isnt there dirtbike forums??
Posted by: yamahamx14
Well I usually stay on the dirtbike forums like thumpertalk.com, but I used to have a 400ex, so I got onto this forum before the dirtbikes. Also, chats is a dirtbike and quad riding area, so it doesn't really matter what forum I am on to be talking about this.
Posted by: Hammer trx450r
Its OK we quad riders dont shun dirtbikes like they do us. The way i look at it is we are all in this together.

I don't have anything against quad riders, I just enjoy dirtbikes more. 99% of everybody I ride with are quad riders, so quads are cool with me. But over on the dirbike forums they can't stand you guys for some reason.

Thanks man, I will give you a break down, on WHY I think they hate us. most quad guys can get on a dirtbike and throw down some laps. Very few dirtbike riders can get on a quad and even jump.
Posted by: Hammer trx450r
I think its because a couple reasons
1. They live in a rut, our powerslides flaten ruts
2. They like the outside line in a turn, we dont care so we go inside but the dirtbike is leaning to the inside which im sure is an uneasy feeling.
But the way i look at it is they make jump faces very dangerous for us by hitting the same rutts over and over, so it kinda goes both ways. Most good tracks will split the time up but there is room for all of us out there.

Really, if thats true then you haven't seen any real dirtbikers because from my expierience it is 100 times easier to ride and jump a quad than a dirtbike. Every quad rider I ride with rip on a quad but once I put them on my bike they wont leave 1st gear unless its an open straight away or a dirt road or something.
Posted by: deathman53
dirtbikes are alot harder to ride. I ride quads, trikes and dirtbikes. I can't jump a bike to save my life, however, I don't have a problem to launch my atv's over huge jumps. Dirtbikes are easier to ride in some aspects, BUT in general, almost any moron can ride a quad, but it takes someone who knows how to ride to ride a dirtbike good. I'm decent on a dirtbike, nothing great at all. Also the twist throttle on the dirtbike seperates the man from the boys. I have twists on my atv's, NOBODY wants to ride my atv's with them on. They claim they can't controll it.
Posted by: Crazy lil punk
hmmm..Thats odd, I rode a quad all my life, I got a yz85, and I can clear most of the jumps on the expert track with it and I only rode it 3 times.....Plus I never get worn out on the dirtbike? I can only take some many laps on my quads..
Posted by: Crazy lil punk
either way, don't hate, I have both some I am neutral more or less
Posted by: Over-land 450r
the way i see it as the dirtbikers bring there lil girlfriends, dirtbikers race, they go watch a quad moto, see me and be like damm thats hott.. then they start hatin. WTF that aint cool.
hey, how bout that 206 privite track???

I'm dying laughing right now from this statement. No offence, but if you are basing your opinions about dirtbikes from riding a 85 than you really dont know anything. A YZ85 is a 17 horsepower, 150 pound mini bike. Theres a big difference between an 85 and a 50 horsepower, 250 pound 450. Anybody could throw an 85 around in the air, but a full sized bike is another story.

I am looking for parts, hit me up with what you got.
how you doin rob?
Posted by: yamahamx14
the 85 would somewhat difficult to control because of the power will make it stand on the back wheel all the time, but it is definetly not more difficult to ride compared to a full size bike. An 85 is 150 lbs tops, so its like a bicycle around the track compared to a big bike. If you think an 85 is hard to ride then try throwing around a 250 pound 450 or a 230 pound 250f, then you'll have some real problems.

I'm not saying i know everything its just there is no way an 85 is harder to ride than a full sized bike. It woud be the same with quads. What's easier to ride a Rapter350 or a YFZ450? Either way I'm gonna be down with a couple of people on the 22nd to prepare for the harescramble on the 30th. Crazy lil punk if your 15 or under you should run the 85 in the harescramble, it sounds like its going to be a fun race.

I am not 100% positive. The event is two days and when that happens they usually run quads on saturday and bikes on sunday. I am going to call the association that runs it tommorow about that because a bunch of my friends ride quads and want to run in it. When i find out i will let you know. BTW happy birthday.
