All 2st The obligatory video thread.

This video highlights my frustration riding at Burning Rock. They really could do a much better job of marking the trail heads and intersections.... That place has the potential to be incredible for dirt bikes. However, they (like most off road parks) are too in love with goon buggies (UTV's) and femur magnets (four wheelers) to really care about improving or expanding the bike only single track.

Here is a good example of ST looking but is a road ... Same area but I take a right after the foot bridge instead of going straight .. After the second larger creek crossing, I go left and that is a road with only the north end is being maintained much.

I've never believed riding a dirt bike over the earth ruins it ... Nothing scientific here but I see dozer work here all over the place, meaning the earth is scrapped flat or what ever ...much more that a bike\bikes could do to the same area and if left alone, the earth reclaims everything in short time usually...As shown here.

Short VID of me sitting at one of my favorite riding locations here when the mountain air was filled with the sound of 2t bikes ... It was my good friends from Balamban, including Alex "Macho Man', riding a loop from their place coming east to the middle of the island and then going back home... Too fing cool ....

These guys were schooling me on water crossing ...

well I was by myself, three miles outside the nearest town, on worn out road legal tyres, I use my bike to get to work every day so I wasn't going to risk going through the water, I had no idea how deep it was and I only rode off the road a few times so I'm not experienced at it

Me fail. Tried passing this guy and caught a loose rock hidden in the leaves and introduced my thigh to another rock at about 20-25 mph. Got some good rash on my arm too. Will be hobbling for a few days.

Reduced base gasket thickness on the 165 to .8 mm
Jetting was a bit lean but it ran well

it was running well - ive changed the cylinder head and increased compression - now it has a bit more poke - when I adjusted air screw richer it was pulling harder . Now I want to ride it again with richer jetting

yes - its what we call the corner man system ( DBW (dirt bike world) forum riders use it a lot )

1 Lead rider - (was Santa this time ) when the lead rider gets to a corner the guy behind him stops and waits and doesn't move until the last rider ( the sweep in a fluoro vest ) comes up

any more than 4 or 5 riders and you need this . We had 25 riders - and a sausage and beer at the end !

Its a good system as long as you all know how many are infront or in your group, forks in the track corners or up coming roads am always thankful for the dude waiting.

Love night riding love the added snow so envious.

With grip studs?

Sorry for the delay. No grip studs.

My Maiden voyage on a new to me '10 Husky CR 144. I'm coming off of an '07 TE 450 that was equipped with a Rekluse. The ground here is frozen (Kingston Ontario, canada) and got out juuust as the thaw was about to come out...got in and out in the nick of time. First impression....THIS is a completely different beast....The PERFECT Woods weapon. Things I may need to add...an easier clutch assembly to get one finger..small hands and a bit of reach right now.

Opening day with my local club, Bytown Motorcycle Association, based out of Ottawa Ontario, Canada. First legitimate trail day on the new to me rig. Ready for Mini Pine Enduro next weekend !
