    My neighbor used to try to purposely play "mow the saplings" with his little 400 Yamaha. Ended up the same way. He thought it was funny.......I thought it was stupid.

    I've had farm tractors on the two side wheels a couple of times, and almost went over backwards in a flat field using a disk harrow too big for the tractor. These things happen fast. I read this piece from Maine a few days ago, and it reminded me of this site, because I see frequent pictures here of skidding logs without rollbars/seatbelts...

    I had to Google for that link, and was a bit bummed by all the rollover deaths I had to sort through to find this rollover.

    My buddies' dad busted the window on a 953….. with his head! He was used to the old 955's and not the response of the hydro trans. in the '53. That'll learn ya! I also flipped the 4 wheeler doing the "too many saplings at once" thing, that'll learn me:rofl: :lol:

    Ouch! :doh: I've built some wooden spacers that go in front of my ATV tires to avoid this from happening.

    Yeah, we have a saying around home. "The fast way is the slow way"...and sometimes the expensive way.
