You have plenty of traction. And every rider who passes you, from little girls to old men will be more than happy to show you that.Originally Posted by Buddau
Go there, get your butt kicked, and get a 2 hour long lesson in cornering. You can always pull over and take a breather if you're huffing.
My best advice is to watch out for the whoops. I may have busted a couple of ribs being stupid in them a few years ago...

Coming full circle, huh? Didn't you have one of those a while back?Originally Posted by Bueller

I borrowed Shane's ktm for this. Havn't been on a hare scramble in 10 years so don't laugh to hard when I puss out half way.
I may have to throw the dirt set back on the YZ, got the KTM up on a stand and found the wheel bearings needed replaced, so I am going to tear it down and check all the bearings, and replace the plastic, ordered the shit today, so I doubt it'll show 'till next week. Guess I'll wait and see if they are going to run this on Sunday or not.
Is this still on?
Just looked at the website and it is rescheduled for 2/4. I wasn't going to make this Sunday anyway, parts didn't arrive yet and I didn't really want to convert th YZ back to dirt and get it covered in mud, besides I still need to break in the new top end.
... well, if you give me $25, you can come over and I'll kick your ass for you ? ... (not talking bikes or anything)...

That's a mighty tempting offerOriginally Posted by Sully
I had to scroll back through the thread to figure out were that came from
Looks like the rescheduled date has been bumped again to the 18th. Now the next regular scheduled race will be on the 11th and then the make up will be a week after that. Hopefully there will be some racing some time this winter. At least this gives me time to get the Katoom fixed up.
I would be willing to join Sully in taking your $$ and kicking your butt also.
Yea, I'm bored. Can't even work on the bike in the garage. It's too damn cold.

Ha! fucking HA! Now I am going to have to be sensitive to those remarks rather than throwing them at Krod.
So here is the KTM put back together. Man I love the smell of 2 stroke in the garage! F'ing thing hauls, wheelies as nice as the YZ, can't wait to get her out. I can see it will need some carb tunning though.
It came with orange plastic, but I have never really been a fan of the pumpkin colors.
UGH I can't wait to get back on my dirty!
She needs a little TLC before I can ride again... Must get off my ass and do it!

Holy crap man what have you been doing all winter long? I've rebuilt 2 and maintenanced the fuck out of the other.Originally Posted by Bertha
Get it done and go to the Hare Scramble, what could you need to do? Bike's relatively new ain't it? And it's a suzuki so it should own.
Well now that you mention it... I need to do very little work.. But if you know a few things I wouldn't mind some help... Bearings etc... and YEs I'm intrested in these Hare ScramblesOriginally Posted by Bueller

Looks like the race is still on for Sunday, heard they they are scraping the track.
Bertha, I'll probably be racing the next two weekends, but if you need some help I can give you a hand, do you have the service manual on your bike?
I am sure it could survive another ride or two.
