You’ll have a blast with that bike. Wear a little backpack with a hydro pack inside for the long rides. Pack some granola bars. If your in a lot of dirt trails, ride with 12-15 psi in both tires. On the road around 20-22. Makes a huge difference with tire pressure especially in the dirt. I’ll...

I would remove it in 1 piece if possible. Leave about 1” in the front when you go across so you can lay a decent layer of glass when your done. Do 1” from the top curve and side curve also. Basically will be a big U when you get done.

I got a chance to get out for about an hour today on the river. Ski is running great. Still some time to ride if anyone is interested

Hey guys, went out today on the river and got some more tray time. Turns and stability are getting better but I’m far from where I was. One issue I see that I’m having is getting use to the zero degree bars. What widths do you guys use? Mine feel wide to me somewhat. Maybe I have to cut them in...

Absolutely nuts. I don’t think I could be in that thing without wearing any kind of helmet, or even a harness to keep me strapped in.

Remember the smallest car is still bigger than you. Just be cautious. Be aware of your surroundings. I’m constantly checking my mirrors. Even if it’s a blitz.

Looks like a stock one for a “R” model.

Sportbike technology. Lol. Basically a single cylinder Cbr. Just imagine what a new fuel injection mix bike rides like. They are very hi tech now. The new Yamaha yz’s can be tuned from your smart phone. Best mods for that bike are exhaust, jetted with a jd jet kit or equivalent, air filter that...

Lol, thanks. I did have fun resurrecting it. Long process. Should have been done 2 years ago but I had some life stuff come up. But it got done. I’m glad I built it instead of parting the pieces out. I pulled this ski out of the crate when the dealer I worked for sold it to the customer from...

Well I didn’t want to do it but had to look towards the future a little. Realistically I’m not going to ride it as much as it should. Hopefully someone can enjoy it more than I would. 2008 Yamaha Superjet Rebuilt motor: crank, seals, fresh bore, pistons Rebuilt carbs: genuine mikuni kits, primer...

Nice! Yeah that’s not a bad deal. Make sure it’s jetted good with the exhaust and keep a clean air filter in it and your ripping through woods and having fun going out and getting a cup of coffee. Lol. Hit me up if you ever har any questions with it for any type of maintenance stuff

The article was saying they have been working a lot with military operations and also departments like fish and game but are trying to get into the custom market.

There’s 3 models of the drz also. A off-road only version. Will have a tighter gear range. The true dualsport version and super moto. Their gearing will be more aimed for street travel. My ktm 530 excr is the same way. I put the off-road gearing on it. Tops out almost at 90mph. And it’s scary...

Forgot about another bike. It’s not out yet but maybe for 2020. Yup it’s a Harley

The long highway rides on some of these bikes are not very comfortable after an hour anyways. A good thing to look at if you want to do more road driving than usual is maybe looking into a set of super moto rim sets. Usually for around $1000, you can get both rims with tires along with a...

Lol, yeah those older ktms were good woods bikes and that’s about it. Any of the 250’s are slow compared to any off the bigger bikes. Only one that feels like a bigger bike is the Yamaha wr250x. Based off the yzf engine somewhat but it taps out early n screams down a highway.

Just got my new powersports business magazine in the mail. There’s a stand-up that has been built in Canada for several years now and has been over seas but not in the states. It’s not what you are probably thinking though. The company is called the DTV Motor Company. The stand-up is actually an...

In the dual sport category there are so many options. It all depends what you are looking for. The VStrom is perfect for riding like a normal street bike around town n highways. You can add touring bags to it n a windshield for the long trips. Even can do 2 up on it. Dirt roads it will be fine...
