    Finally home! I now have an extremely rare Yamaha quad added to the collection

    I bought this a few months ago and could not go get it until this past week. Yamaha only made a hand full of theses Pro Haulers in 1989. This one has been garage kept and preserved in wonderful condition. It even has the original spark plug. This thing is slow, but it will pull hell off the hinges. Even though it is only two wheel drive it was still able to conquer some pretty serious inclines and rock formations on my family’s farm in Tennessee while we were visiting. I hope you all enjoy the photographs.

    I would, but I have gotten pretty attached. Besides, I think he will make a good riding buddy. Do you know if Yamaha made the mowing deck? I was told the out sourced all the attachments. I am just wondering how hard parts will be to get if I am able to find one.

    it has a 230CC engine that Yamaha only used with this quad and nothing else. It has high and low range with reverse. So it acually has 10 forward gaers and two reverse. And let me tell you, that low gear is LOW. I bet it will pull my dually.

    Sweetness, Wickedfinger needs that 4 his Book

    That Quad looks Sweet, real clean and I bet she's a TOUGH Quad. I believe that needs to be in WickedFinger's Book. That has got to be the 1st ever utility quad. And they dont come much cleaner than that when they are that age. Take some sweet shots of her and send em in to the man with the WICKEDFINGER woo hoo

    Please do, I would not mind finding another one. If you have a lot of property, you may want to consider it for your self.
