He was going too fast after I told him not to....tried to turn and was going to fast...hit both brakes but didn’t take his thumb off the throttle....
It is toast

back when I was a GW I was checking a dove field on my Big Red. I rode up on some folks sitting on and around a truck under a tree. One of the guys had a full Halo on. head screws and all. He told me I could get one of them riding my three wheeler. I said I never got out of second gear...
This fella rode his up a very steep hill, thinking the top was flat...it just dropped off the other side straight down. He went airborne and landed seated upside down.. opens his eyes and everything was upside down. His neck was broken, back of head was against his mid back.he pulled his head back into place. They loaded him inn the bed of a truck and took him to the hospital. He had no permanent damage. Had to stay in the halo for months.
I do not see how that neck was broken completely but he suffered no paralysis at all. God was looking out for him that day for sure.

I have flipped a big red 250 forwards and backwards in my teenage years. Not one time could I blame Honda for me turning too fast or throttling too hard. I did love riding that thing. We had a 6 foot in diameter Coke sign that a salesman had hung on the end of our barn. We wore every bit of paint off that thing pulling it behind the 3 wheeler in the snow with a rope. Made a great sled for feeding cattle or slinging friends around. No telling what that sign would have been worth today if we had just left it alone.

Bought a 84 200es on Tuesday...cleaned carb and it was running...
My SIL rode it last night for 3 mins and hit a telephone pole...
Bruised his leg but is walking....thank the lord...
I am mad at myself for letting him ride it alone....he is not new to atvs but inexperienced with them....he panicked and hit the brakes with his thumb full throttle....
Front end is toast...forks, rack, handlebars, triple tree all smashed....
I had it for about 24 hours...lol
Luckily he wasn’t hurt badly....
