Stuck the sand/mud tires on the beta for the national enduro this weekend.

Dunlop mx11. I have a Bridgestone m101 on the front. I've owned both of these over a year and this is the first time using the rear and the front has only seen one race :dry:

Which tire is that? Looks a lot like the Geomax Sand/Mud.

Got the firewall pieced back together and I am much happier with it now than it was with the ford v8. Other than a bump out on the drivers side for the intake manifold, the firewall/floor with be mostly stock again.

At some point in the last 65 years someone else had hacked out a hole in the firewall. I do not own a bead roller so this piece took quite a while to make by hand.

Sumter didn't go well btw. Nagging issue with the Beta is still there so I basically tried to enjoyed my trail ride all day. The tires hooked up great though :thumbup:

Changed the gear oil on the trials bike. Had a heck of a time getting the oil in the tiny hole. Finally used a big syringe. Worked great!

I made the first of four under body storage boxes and I made a seat frame and springs for the 36 Chevy. I changed the rear calipers and brake pads on the F250, had a stuck caliper and hot brake. I also got about 30 min of riding time on the EM in the backyard.

I drilled and tapped the caliper carrier to accept the second wheel sensor for the Voyager pro. I like to be able to run my stock ODO and the Voyager so I have both. The "Brembo" logo on the caliper carrier is in the perfect spot, just punched it right in the center of the logo, drilled a small pilot hole, then drilled a 17/64 hole and tapped with with the M8-1.25 for the Trailtech sensor to thread in. perfect fit! Then I worked on my van "flow wall" set up so I can start hanging up my stuff. Just waiting on the liners to show up so I can finish out the inside of the van. Nice day to work on projects for sure.
