  1. My season is pretty much over with a baby on the way next month. I'm hoping to get a couple summer rides in. Overnighters. that's the best riding of the year. If you're just looking for others to camp with, check out GlamisDunes.com. Tons of good people. Always someone to camp with any week.
  2. hahahahahaha! I remember that quote! I just saw the Silva/Henderson fight on Youtube. Pretty good. So many great fighters out there. that's why I get pissed when an entire UFC fight card has below average matchups.
  3. I just said I like him. Didn't say I fuck him. Because some back east yokels thought last night was great means I can't say it sucked? I don't pay $40 a month because I hate the UFC. I love it. Some great fighters and awesome fights. But the fact is, they keep pushing these cheesy fighters from their reality show. That's one of my beefs. They pull a guy from retirement to fight for the heavyweight belt when they just signed on 3 new heavyweights that people are dying to see. And yes. My opinion is that last nights 4 GOD DAMN FIGHTS IN 3 HOURS sucked. I hear Pride may have to sell. That would be one bigass group if they merged with UFC.
  4. 2 more reasons last night sucked! I can't watch Franklin again after seeing Anderson Sylva (my new favorite fighter) smash his face with 20 knees. Matt Hughes was dominated by St.Pierre in his last fight and was worthless in last nights fight. 2 friggen losers with half ass wins. UFC continues to pimp it's "stars" meanwhile, they're losing a ton of viewers to PRIDE. If Pride didn't just lose CroCop and Rampage Jackson to UFC, I'd be done with UFC altogether.
  5. Cotoure does not like Sylvia. He thinks he's a douchebag like most of America. I was hoping to see a real heavyweight like CroCop kick his fuckin head off!
  6. Put the swingarm on! You'll be able to rev the shit out of and dop the clutch without having to lean over the handlebars. I have less engine than you and constantly loop up my '06 stock swingarm. My +4 on my '02 keeps me pretty firmly planted. Sounds liek you want to drag and will continue to. +6 will be good for you.
  7. That was one of the worst UFCs I've seen. Next one looks to be almost as bad. Enough with all the god damn reality show fighters. They suckED and still suck.
  8. I wouldn't think about riding without boots. Foot/lower leg injuries are very common and pretty fucking bad. Boots will take a while to get used to. Just keep them on. Few hours ride time is all it will take. Some boots have taller toes and you may need to raise the shifter 1 click. Don't raise it unless you really need to. I wear cheap Thors.
  9. I raced one up Test Hill at Gordons Well. It wasn't even close. I think they're shaft driven and weigh over 500lbs. Not a race bike.
  10. I have mine as black as I can. For now. Me and the wifes ATC 70s too!
  11. Must depend on the make. I owned a Stock carrier (which sucked) +4 and the brake line fit fine.
  12. The negatives far outweight the positives on wheel spacers. Especially in the front.
  13. Brake line should fit no problem. Most likely, the skid plate is history. They're pieces of shit anyhow. You might want to get an aftermarket chain slider. (up near the front sprocket) I personally think they're not needed with a +4. The chain guide (down near the rear sprocket) might not line up right. I've run without one for a while without problems. An aftermarket one I bought did not line up right. Sprocket sizes may be making the difference. Is this a stock carrier style or roundhouse?
  14. FuelATV.com has pretty cool ones. they come in black too! they don't have a pic of one on a Banshee yet.
  15. I have a ONE Industries Kombat. Matte finish. Sucks. If you happen to get a splash of gas on it, it turns to glue. It will lose it's Matte finish and becomes sticky. It will stay sticky. Matte looks kinda cool but I'm going back to gloss for my next helmet.
  16. Decals and stickers are lame. Cut your fenders off and paint. The front fenders don't flex much and should hold up well.
  17. Nice! How many cans did it take and where did you get it? Did they have any other colors? Too bad I just got new silencers or I'd do my FMFs.
  18. EXACTLY what I do.
  19. I try to take out 4 5gallon jugs per trip. Usually have 1 left for the truck at the end. I don't know how the riding is at other dunes, but a 3 rides a day is usually all we can make. A long ride with beer and camp stops can be as long as 6 hours. (we drink a lot) Night riding rules! Unless I pace myself though, I'm beat by sundown.
  20. Oh ya. When you come to a stop in the dunes, make sure you stop pointing down hill or on flat ground.
  21. Comp Hill is shitty. No one realy goes there anymore. More broken glass than riders. Lean forward to start only as much as you need to not loop it. The whoops are easier the faster you go. Get to 3rd or 4th before the start of the whoops. Get your ass on the back of the seat and blast over them. You might want to try and grab 5th gear towards the top but 9 times out of 10, bad idea. You'll bog out. Guys coming UP hill have right of way. Be on the look out coming down a hill. If you need to turn around mid-hill, be damn sure whats on its way up. You don't want to turn into an oncoming 2,000lb rail! In the dunes? Stay in Line! If you're new, you shouldn't be leading any rides. Let someone more experienced lead. Follow your leader and occasionally check on the guy behind you. Headlights at dusk is always nice especially in dusty conditions. If you're riding out of the sun, you might not be seen by an oncoming rider. In a bowl? Try not to ride straight down and up it. Sometimes the bottom is a sharp angle and it will fuck you up. If your not sure about a steep transition, pass on it. You can always loop around for another try. If you find yourself seperated from the group, try and get to the top of the nearest dune and wait. Kind like hugging a tree in the forest. Let your group find you. If you see someone who needs help, help them! It might be you next time that is in trouble. Clean your campsite! Take out more than you brought in. Don't burn pallets. There's like 300 nails in every pallet. USE COMMON SENSE OUT THERE. have fun.
  22. It's empty out there though. Summer has the smoothest sand you'll ever see!
  23. "too hot" in Idaho?! Do a trip to Glamis in August. Feels like your exhaust is blowing right on you.
  24. China Wall CAN be easy to find from Gecko. Go to the end of Gecko (Roadrunner). Go straight out along the closure. If you stay dead East, you should come up on it. The south end of China Wall valley is the closure.
