    I wish you could have too. Sorry for the last minute invite. Conditions turned out good and had a blast. Did not even unload the PR5!!!

    Looking at the PR5 and the dual sport Gas Gas 250cc EC Cami, it looks like they share the same motor. GG has stuck with a carburetor instead of efi. :excuseme:

    Long ass down hill. FUN! Loving the AJP PR5. Such a good working and forgiving bike. 4 KTMs and a YZ250 on this ride, never felt out gunned and was extremely happy to be on the AJP. what you cant see is how stinking slick it is out and how steep the downhill is.

    Bike looks great...those hand warmers would sure distract me. Sounds like it's got a nice bottom end full of grunt

    they distract me slightly but not as much as frozen fingers. Was about 29 degrees. Motor works great, just keeps pulling you up and over everything. Don't feel outgunned at all.

    That bike sounds as smooth as silk. From what I can see that your not using a steering damper and it did not look like you were in need of one. looks very impressive.

    "smooth as silk"

    Thats actually a good way to describe this bike. The motor is counterbalanced, holds 2 quarts of oil and is quiet. Smooth. Makes very usable power but not a lot more and is very non fatiguing. Bike feels very lite and slim, again, ez. The handling is quite nimble feeling yet also very planted. I believe the rear tank has something to do with the feel of this bike as the PR4 which is a lot different bike feels a lot the same. Feels 2 stroke lite in front. Suspension is plush and the seat is comfortable. Add e-start and yep, "smooth as silk"

    part 2 of that vid. From 3:30 on is a good open incline up a ridge. Figured he might gap me there but I had no issues hanging with him.

    This one is good too. From the mushy valley floor to the frozen and snowed on ridges. FUN!

    BTW these are better if you click youtube and watch them full sized.
