I flipped my'n too many times to count you get use to riding with a passenger then you go out on your own drift the wrong way and flip over but i only rolled it right over once and then i did damage but still drove away with only a slightly bent side bar which I took off and still didn't get around to straighten but a buddy of my'n rolled his over three times in a row a wasn't that bad besides a bent tie rod end
