Re: 11/6 Midweek Dirt Ride

Windblown was doing pretty good but had the bad luck to fall right in front of the guy holding a camera. http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm253/buchodr650/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-11/09E4B0F3-45D3-4947-84BC-627B31131736_zps5sgw6n1r.jpg Fall? No sir! I was just trying to grab a dollar I saw laying on...

Re: 11/6 Midweek Dirt Ride

The highlight of my day was one of the last sections of the day that Sam and I did. Might be the toughest rock garden Ive ever ridden. Here is Sam in front of me. http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm253/buchodr650/Mobile%20Uploads/2014-11/56FD241E-5629-45B7-A8C8-97DCB710BE1D_zps9tmxqcg1.jpg Good G...

I have a Toyhauler but I ain't hauling that 14,000lb triple axle beast up rt 675! It's a permanent fixture serving as a mobile home/garage at the hunting property west of Mt. Jackson these days.

Re: 11/6 Midweek Dirt Ride

Coming up soon. Anyone else? I posted up on ADV that I'll likely be there. Just thought I'd drop in here for a change since it's been a LONG time since I posted in here and said "HI". Looks like it won't be dusty! :) Wet stuff is supposed to move off in the wee hours of the morning. Shoul...

Re: cold weather riding wear

Just remember that cold air intrusion is the enemy! Hippo hands or similar guards as already mentioned route the wind off your hands and when combined with heated grips makes a great combo and allows you to wear lighter gloves. Balaclava's or neck gaiters - anything that keeps cold air off your neck...

Re: New adv bike opinions please!

The new KTM is much more street oriented, more complex compared to the old one, and a first year model run. All this from a manufacturer that rarely makes major changes painlessly on a first year model run. A couple of things to consider: The big adventures are cool but unless you have deep pockets ...

Re: KTM parts wanted

I have a set of .50 fork springs and an 8.8 rear shock spring recently taken off of an '05 525. They were installed new in 2012. Not sure if they fit an '07 but if you're still looking and interested I'd take $80.00 shipped for both.

Re: S500 Oct 5-6

Will be leaving shortly. When I went to load up the bike I spotted a small puddle of oil under it. Seems the gasket I reused on the clutch cover must have had a split in it I hadn't noticed. I had to dig around a bit to find the spare gasket I had tucked away. All button back up now and loaded. Just...

Re: S500 Oct 5-6

I plan to get down there sometime late tomorrow afternoon. Given the recent turn of events I haven't decided if I'm gonna stay for the duration or pull up stakes and go camp at a piece of property a bit further north to work on/ride some trails that I have neglected getting to this year.
