Exclamation yamaha rhino lawsuits?

i dont know if anyone else has seen it but the other night i saw a commercial for some ambalance chasing law firm looking for people who have been injured due to "factory defects" resulting in crash. this makes my blood boil i personally do not own a rhino or know more than a few people that do but someone suing yamaha for their screwup would be like me suing my father for male mattern bladness in my family! i mean come on, i ride my toys and know my limits on them. i know i cant go w/o into a left hand 180degree turn on pavement without coming out skunt up! unless their is some sort of neglagence on yamaha's part i think this is bull shit. i may be completely off my rocker here but this puts a bad rap on atv manufactures which puts a bad rap on the people who ride them. this sport is already under enougth scrutiney from the public for the idioits who ride through town at 3am or tear up farmers crops we dont need lawyers coming to mx tracks to sue suzuki because some dick cased out a triple on his bome stock 400. if i am wrong i would like to know but i am passionate about my time i get to ride, i love it and things like this worry me of days to come when things arent so sunny. i guess i just had to get it off my chest!


stupid lawyers

It's another way for them to attempt to put a stop to riding for use all!

Now I won't lie, there is a fault in the design simply because it comes narrow and top heavy that it is easy to flip, hell first night out my old man and brother tried to do a 180 and it turned over with ease! My dad's a damn good rider/driver but it's the rhino.. Now when you take the stock wheels and invert them it's a WHOLE other animal

THere ain't no way we are going to deal with a lawsuit because it's ridiculous.. someones always trying to make money off something, bastards!

This lawsuit is BS in my opinion. There is a reason they come with a cage on them (because theres a chance you are going to roll). If you roll it and get hurt then its on you wtf does what you do with it after you bought it have to do with the manufacturer. Its all some asshole lawyer who got his sh** pushed in by someone who rode in high school trying to get back at the entire atv community and put a little coin in his pocket at the same time. As soon as I seen that commercial I just started going off its about like the lady who sued mcdonalds because she spilt hot coffee on her jib, mcdonalds didn't personally pour the coffee on your crotch, and yamaha didn't roll your rhino for you. People just need to learn to take some responsibility for their own actions and stop being little beaches and blaming everyone else for their own stupidity.

yamaha should be sued for making that big gay rhino not manufacturing "defects" that make that top heavy piece of shit flip when little jimmy boy gets on uncle donny's hunting quad and goes 73mph then turns left as hard as he can on asphault, then his rich parents open a lawsuit, what a crock of shit

just like the way people are trying to sue this nice riding place in newburgh, closest legal place to ride to me, it is temporarily fuckin closed, unbelievable, all because assholish people try to sue and get around the waivers signed.

Dude, everyone's lookin for a free ride through life, didn't you know? It is a crock of shit, every thing's about lawsuits now-a-days. As far as riding places go, soon enough there won't be anywhere to ride. You always have assholes ruining it for everyone.

The main question is, "Is there really a defect or not?"
I have never ridden a rhino and I never will. They are made to be a work horse and nothing else. If it just people being retard and going way to fast then they should of got hurt.

just because you can flip the thing dont mean that its defective you can buy a brand new anything"car/truck" and go flip it within 2 minutes of owning it, dose this make ford/chevy/dodge liable just because some assjack some how fliped their product. WTF when i ride my bike i KNOW that it is a great possibility that i can do something stupid and kill myself and or others around me! my dad used to say its not the guns fault it kills its the idioit who pulled the trigger. i think the same applies here
