Yesterday I rolled the Brute. I was just playing around in the woods behind my house. I had to back down a steep hill. Everything was going good until I got near the bottom. The right rear wheel caught on a root or something and caused it to flip around and it rolled side to side. It dumped me off and rolled over me. It landed on its wheels. I've got some cracked ribs, bruises and various scrapes. The rear rack on the brute is mangled. The rack extention is the only thing that kept it from really mashing me up. I think the handle bars may be bent also. When I get feeling better, is there anything else I need to inspect for damage?
that sucks to hear cool wizard!!!!!! I would go threw all the fluids, give the front end a good shake down, and the rear end, just make sure everything is still tight.
Really sucks about the bike man. On the positive side of things, your alive! I had a cousin pass away from rolling his quad on him. He wasnt driving fast but when it rolled on him it broke his neck! These things cause more damage then the old " Big Reds" I used to drive when I was a kid.
Same as everyone else Coolwizard. Glad you are alive. I remember when I clipped an arroyo wall and rolled mine...seeing that thing coming over on top of me is something I won't soon forget. Just bars and racks too ...and some pains that took a long time to go away.
When you see it comming, rolling at you, then you know the true meaning of "Brute Force" ....lol At least I can laugh about it now, but it really hurts when I laugh.
I know the feeling all too well! Right after you roll it you think " I wish I could go back in time 10 seconds,,,I would have never rode there!" lol
I rolled my 650 prairie over me and my 750 brute! They both hurt like hell but luckily I didnt break anything on me or the bikes. Both times I was humbled to say the least.

Wow Never good to hear. I am glad you are OK and wish you the best. I rolled my polaris years ago just like you said. Rolled three times down a hill. Check frame to make sure it did not get tweaked and as Brian said check front and rear suspension to make sure she is still tight. If bars are gone take a look at Rox set up. You will like it.
