  1. Just found out today my uncle has a hitch on the back of his camper trailer. So I can tow it with my little trailer behind with my bikes on it. Wife approved a guys trip too. Not sure how soon though. Got a weeks vacation to burn. Hopefully make a couple trips at least this summer.
  2. Havent tried em myself. Had a set of Vito's that I think are real similar. They were pretty nice. A variation is shearers I believe.

    +3 A-arms

    I've got an older set of +3s. They are for stock length shocks. I've been running yfz shocks with em and they're too long. At full droop the toe in gets crazy. So you'll wanna know what length shock they're set up for.
  4. Damn I was gonna buy those pegs too
  5. I'll do $20 on the puller and clutch holder.
  6. Damn straight. I'm waiting for another run of scammers to come through.
  7. Just wanted to refresh this. Seems like most of the fs posts don't have pics in em now. I realize sometimes it can be a pita to post pics for some people but really? How many threads and posts are there on here giving instructions on how to do it? Use the search and look around. And if it's Phelps job to police this shit, get off your ass! Sorry Phelpsy had to get that out.
  8. I'd be curious to see that too. What about the fmf knarlys? Are the any different then fatties or just thicker?
  9. Lookin good man. Your cousins bikes look good. Are they local too?
  10. That's pretty sweet. I'm gonna have to pick one of those up. I've had a regular ATV lift for a while. Works ok, mainly use it for storage to keep the shaved sand tires off the ground. Extra height of the cart would be damn nice.
  11. Mic the smaller filter side of the carbs. That'll tell ya size. First thing I'd do is the comp test. Mother to start cold, once warmed up u get a little expansion and it'll run. I've bought a pile or two like that.
  12. That's damn funny. Gonna have to write that one down.
  13. Quite a few years now I've been mixing it 5gallons at a time 40:1 w/avgas. That stuff is blue and the Klotz usually turns it purple. Been so long since I've mixed it with pump gas I forget what it looked like. It always mixes well though and I can't remember much of a residue.
  14. I've never seen one at the dunes, I've only been once. I've seen a few conversions though. One just cut the back off and flat bedded for bikes. Saw another one that a guy repainted and made a nice camper out of. Put air on it and had some nice wheels. Always thought it would be cool to do.
  15. Ya I've heard bad things about RTV also. I've been using Ultra Grey on mine last couple times but now I've got a leak at my case studs under the crank. Think I'll be using something little more fuel resistant when it comes apart. What about lock tight on bolts inside the clutch cover? Ever had any issues with that? I've also gotten to where I take out the Phillips head bolts and replace them with Allen head ones from the hardware store so I don't have to worry about the stripping out. Nice pictures and write up. Way more patience than I have putting one together. I'd be three days doin all you did and taking pictures. Haha
  16. I'd have to ride it, but looks pretty cool. I'm thinking there's a lil work involved in something like. Looks to be pretty well done. You gotta applaud anybody willing to do stuff to these ol turds to try and keep them alive.
  17. U could prob use an hvac u tube manometer too. Pretty much the same thing but already made up. I've got a couple made by Dwyer. Don't mean to piss on your idea. That's a good home brew deal.
  18. I've got one. Works pretty slick. I haven't ran a DD. But this one went in under my stock cover with the little nubs for the outer circular cover ground down. I haven't adjusted it. Rides pretty well like stock except it doesn't slip. I forget its there. I'm kinda lazy so I like that.
  19. North of i80 and east of 191? Am I lookin at the right place? Don't get much more the definition of bfe than that. There ain't anything out there.
  20. I think we are gonna try to make a trip to st Anthony lil after memorial day. Hopefully that won't be the only trip we take. We made the 12 hour drive to little Sahara for an HQ ride year or so ago. We'd prob do it for something like this if we get a decent turnout. Have to see what kind of drive we're looking at.
  21. I'd prob consider smthn like this. One at st Anthonys would be pretty cool too. Gettin some locals to show me around would be sweet.
  22. Just google mapped it. Looks like its right at the same distance to these ones as it is to St Anthonys. Guess I'll hit them first. Then maybe I'll look into juniper.
  23. Cool. I've heard of those places but haven't been there. I've got a kx 250 I'm kinda workn on. Haven't decided if in gonna keep it or not. I'm dieing to get to the dunes again. Been a couple years. I've ridden on some of the mountain trails here on my 450. That was pretty nice. Prob have 3' of snow on em now though.
  24. Nice ad. Where's the pics? Wtf
