Does anyone know if a 250R skidplate will be close to fitting a 85 Tecate? If not can somebody build me a nice aluminum piece or point me in a direction as to where I can find one?

Hey meat, i want to do a province wide trek on the old railbed trailprotrailpro I move to the states in a few years, I think the Tecate would be a good trekker , just need a 6pack rack and a backpack and way to go. Why are you coming to Newfoundland or were u foolin?

My wife is from Newfoundland and now her Parents and sister live there again . We want to move there in about 2 years. As for the Tecate, from the trails I rode just to get to the Railbed you would need a serious 4x4. Im selling the Tecate but when I fet to Newfoundland I will Have a killer 4x4 with enough rack space to carry the gear and a case of Beer :beer
Ive been wanting to ride accross that Island for 7 years now and now that the Railbed is a provincal park you can do probably 800 miles easy, one way. I need to do that ride for my top adventure yet.

For the most part it should be smooth sailing once on the railbed which is where I plan to start. I'm on the Burin Peninsula which is a good jog away from the rails so I may start near Manuals or Conception Bay South which is where my sis is living.

The 4x4 quads are the way to go when it comes to major trail riding around here, I've been places on my Kodiak that some wouldn't think possible. Glad to hear you like our island and have dreams of coming back.

You can try these guys http://www.atvguards.com/index2.html - they claim to make custom products. PRM does not seem to offer a T3 swinger skid - but - they do custom work as well.
