Thanks for the offer.
Would sooner see you get the trials bike in tune and come pay your dues on the sections I have. Might even have one with our name listed.
I seem to be going backwards with that thing; I have completely lost all spark now (but then the earlier hard starting may have been from a weak spark so maybe its actually progress). I have read about it most likely being the stator and I need to send it to Europe for an exchange, but then maybe its the coil\CDI. My professional diagnosis had led me to park it in the back of the shed for now and see if it heals itself...

The grass track plus small woods section would work well for a little mini blind enduro section for the kids....let them be the racers for the day.
Could use help running that...think it would be like herding cats.
That would be AWESOME! Except for the weekend of the 4th when we are already scheduled to be away camping, I would do my best to make it happen any other weekend. It would be great to finally settle all this trash talking between my kids and Phoo's kids; this whole east-west rivalry has just gotten out of hand
J re: your stator? problem. I've had several electrical problems on my stable and on Bucho's bike and learned a little.
There are ways to do sort of a test on the stator output and on the coil. Search around on the internet for your bike and see what you can find. Lewisport.com has a link to most of the service manuals or maybe the mfg.
IF you can't find anything for your bike I can dig out what I've found for other bikes and it should be similar. Let me know if you need it.

Mike, if you need help clearing trails, let me know.
I need to get some bigger quads and bikes for the kids, too. The mini quads are great for the yard, but Mountain Ridge showed that they need bigger wheels.
Just an update to this thread....looking like July 19-20 will be the farm ride weekend.
Need to get final approval from the powers that be, but that weekend has the least conflict in the month of July that I can come up with.
Looking to make Saturday a general "family" day...putz around on the trails...float the creek...your call.
Sunday would be a mini blind endure for the little ones in the AM and a full scale blind enduro for the big kids after lunch.
Keep a open spot on your schedule.
Will make a new post with more details as I work things out but figured I would post up something now to "hold the date"
Carlisle Pa.
Will send directions to those that want to attend.
Not posting address on a public forum.
Had some website lurkers show up at the farm once thinking it was a public place to ride because it was posted on here....that won't happen again.
