actually it works great for when i haul the shee.

i had to call a friend of mine to bring his F250 out and all it took was one good yank and i was out. i damn sure wasnt moving myself though.

i run DG nationals. i love them but everyone else seems to hate em.

decided to go off road, the ole TrXus M/T's are decent, but i definately framed out the old Ranger. and even 4 wheel drive didnt help. had to call a friend to get my ass out... here are the pics. i have video too i just dont know how to post them. going. hardcore in 2 wheel drive not stuck. i think im stuck but i just keep flooring it. yep... im definately stuck, but im still flooring it. on the frame. built ford tough. god logan, youre an idiot. i took one more step and went up to about 3 inches below my waist. i wasnt going through that.

THAT is on the north side of L-town... Carlton arms by the lakeland square mall.

oh yeah, there is 4 or 5 different cars like that around here. there is "tony stewart" "mark martin" "earnhardt jr" and "dale jarret" all driving aroud lakeland, FL. ive never seen them at a stop light... but youre right, now i want to see what happens.

there is more than one car like this in Lakeland, FL, or Polk County. yeah, we do it up right down here. but why would they choose Gordon?

almost the same thing happened to me about 3 years ago on my friends blaster, my foot slipped off the peg and the tire tried to eat my leg. it ripped the skin off of the back of my leg from about the bottom of my knee to 3 inches above my ankle, and ripped my brand new fox pants to hell. i knew that it had hurt, but i didnt even know that i was bleeding until like 5 minutes later when i pulled up to the rest of the guys i was riding with, and they said "hey man, are you alright? what happened?!" i then looked down and proceded to pass out. id like to think i passed out from loss of blood, but i think i just saw it and freaked out. when i woke up i was at the hospital.

so i had posted about how a friend of mine died tuesday night when he got in an accident on his streetbike. he wasnt wearing a helmet.

the damn thing has a nut center... come on.

so the girlfriend and family drug me out to lunch one day at a "tea room" any of you guys ever been to one? its like the feminist restaurant from hell mixed with a giant doll house. anyways, not a lot of guys go to these places because well, its really just for the women, and if a guy is in there, they all just assume hes gay. so i was talking to my family and telling them how weird i felt in there and i look over at the dessert menu and i almost died.... it proved it, if you are a male repeat visitor to these places, lets just say that prison sex doesnt bother you.

well i just got word that a riding buddy of mine died tuesday night when he got in a wreck on his streetbike. Motorcyclist Dies In 2-Vehicle Crash A motorcyclist was killed Tuesday night in a two-vehicle crash north of Lakeland, the Florida Highway Patrol reported. Jason S. Rex, 18, of Lakeland, was killed when the Honda XP9R motorcycle he was driving crashed into a Ford F150 truck driven by Andrew N. Crum, 19, of Lakeland, about 7:30 p.m. The accident happened at Park-Byrd Road and Mini Ranch Road west of U.S. 98, troopers said. Crum, who was wearing a seat belt, was not injured. The FHP report said Crum, whose truck was heading south on Park Byrd Road, attempted to turn left into a driveway while Rex's northbound motorcycle approached. Rex was unable to stop and tried to avoid the truck by putting the bike on its side, the report said. But the motorcycle slid into the truck's right front corner. Rex was not wearing a helmet, the FHP report said. The report said charges are pending in the crash. I just talked to his girlfriend and she said that after he hit the truck, he grabbed his nextel, and 2 wayed her and all he said was "i love you" and then he alerted her. she walked over and picked up her phone off of the counter and said "hey whats up?" but he was already dead. good god. that hits close to home. i mean went riding quads together last saturday. the funny thing was is that some of the guys that were with us werent wearing helmets and he was, and he kept telling them that they should wear them, even if they werent riding very hard... i dont know guys, just be safe.

a friend of mine got pulled over a couple years back on the road on his brand new totally stock warrior, he was just breaking it in right after bringing it home from the dealer. this was on a back road, in a very rural area, and as soon as the cop pulled behind him, he stopped and killed the engine. should have gone away with a warning, but this is what tickets he got: no helmet no speedometer unregistered vehicle unliscenced driver careless driving no turn signals evading an officer with wreckless endagering (or something like that) speeding (cop said he was doing over 90 mph) no brake light (appearantly it was connected wrong) no headlights(they werent turned on) tresspassing and fraud/giving an officer false name and something about not having a windshield. the officer didnt ttake the quad, but he had a court date, had over 1300 in fines, plus he did 30 day in jail... he had to sell the damn thing to pay the fines and all of that. that cop was just being a dick.

mine used to over heat, then i got a 20-fin inline cooler. never over heated since. no matter how ive ridden.

damn skippy. i want one too.

sorry didnt see that almost the exact same thing is posted further down the list, lol. damn, i didnt even think to look online for a quick fix.

definately worth the money. mine is right in the middle of the line where it comes out from the radiator, almost between the pipes, but it has lowered the operating temperature a lot. no more over heating!!!

this is an easy fix to a bent wheel. some of you probably know this, but i know that i sure didnt. so i had a small accident a few weeks back and my right front wheel was bent pretty bad. when i would ride, the damn thing would wobble like hell, and having no front fenders, seeing it was pretty scary. so i called up a local tire shop and asked if they could maybe pound it out or if i needed to get a new wheel. they told me to put a washer or two behind the rim, where it was bent the most in towards the bike. i took the tire off, put two washers behind the rim, bolted it back on and now it doesnt wobble at all. worked great for not costing anything. im still trying it out, riding slow and being careful, ill let you know how it works later, but for now, it seems to work perfect.

how do you adjust the timing? do i need to get someone to do it, or can i do it myself? and what are the benefits/downfalls to a change in timing?

i need a stock thumb throttle, and/or a throttle cable. i have a 2004 shee and i am pretty sure that the ends of the throttle cable are a different size from some of the other year shees because i bought a twist throttle and the ends on the cable that came with it were too small. i am willing to trade my twist throttle straight up for a thumb throttle, it works great, i just dont feel comfortable using it.

the raptor has an annoyingly high center of gravity. a stock raptor isnt worth the price of the fuel you put in it on an MX track because the front end wants to come up no matter what you do, and taking any sharp turns makes you feel like you are going to tip the hell over. i wouldnt buy one for any kind of racing.

yeah good luck man. im going to start racing FTR hare scrambles here in Florida at the beginning of next month. i hope that goes well. i should be representin the 2 strokes with the Shee. oh yeah baby.

hey cockers are nice markers and are really easy to upgrade. they are just a lot of upkeep because of all the moving parts on them.

thats my automag. red ULE low rise body, LVL 10 bolt so it doesnt chop, Intelliframe, 16 inch 3A anodized barrel to match the body, CP drop forward, ACI bulldog 68ci/4500psi fiber wrapped tank, hell there is more, its a pretty badass marker if you like mags.

ok. i cant seem to get the hang of my twist throttle so im going to get rid of it. i just want to straight up trade it for a stock or aftermarket thumb throttle. my twist is almost new and works perfect. i payed $50 for it new. i need the whole throttle from the thumb part to the cable. i have a 2004 and i think that the cable ends are bigger on the 2004 than older models because i bought my twist throttle and the ends were too small for the holes where they connected so i had to fix it. i just want a 2004 thumb throttle and we each will pay our own shipping and call it even.
