Re: Mountain Ridge Aug 26 -27

I'm bringing a friend along: Mac and his son Henry. Henry is same age as my son. He hasn't ridden but did scoot around the house on one of the SurRons once and loved it. Hope to turn them loose so they can ride together. Current plan is to get there noon-ish on Fri and ride around a little weather p...

Re: Mountain Ridge Aug 26 -27

Thanks. Looks like Phoo's spot for Sat was already booked for Fri night so they gave me C-16. Apparently there is power (RV hookups) in that spot in the field now. Can use to charge the bikes. I should have put A/C in the van and gone more during the summer :)

Re: Mountain Ridge Aug 26 -27

Kiddo and I should be there Fri/Sat at a minimum. Not sure if the wife is coming yet or not. What camp spot are you guys in Skinny J? Phoo said he had the spot reserved beside you for Sat night. I'll try to get it for Fri night.

@Phoo, @Firebolter, and anyone else that pre-ordered give me a shout. I left a msg on your phones. I got to see one today and ride it just a tiny bit. :thumbup:

Re: 2 Stroke FI

The new KTM 2T bikes are TBI vs TPI. Don't know why folks don't expect first year teething issues - just like they had w/ TPI. KTM definitely uses its customers as guinea pigs.

Re: New ULTRA Bee

Electrics can't really replace gas bikes yet (nor in the foreseeable future.) Range will continue to be an issue. They can be a fun 2nd bike though! The one exception IMO might be the Mechatecno Dragonfly electric trials bike. Looks like it might even be better than gas. Range isn't typ a big issue ...

Re: New ULTRA Bee

That is the one shortcoming of Ebikes is slow speed ability to modulate the power. I am sure they are getting there but yeah, sometimes you have to be ready when you whack it. Not as forgiving as ICE for slow speed work, for now anyway. Hitting logs just right is harder on Ebikes, for me anyway- I ...

Re: New ULTRA Bee

Stephen have you researched the new offerings from EM having a clutch and overall batt range? They offer that adventure based model (still trials platform). My beef with the trials is it needs at least a couple speed gear box. Having the ability to go from zero to 40 in a whiskey throttle does not ...
