We can go hit it then. it is too much damn fun, even better when the mud is thick, it helps to slow you down so your dont get too crazy near the edges. I need to get a helmet cam for one of the runs The buell was fun, but I think my time through the stops was faster when I borrowed the shop XT225. fun bike. |

Brian, you're awesome!![]() I'll have to go back and run the road a few more times. Get familliar with the corners so I can pick my pace up a bit. Not too much margin for error with most of the road being mega drop off! We picked up a Pro Circut T-4 slip on off of clist yesterday.....Jets and an Uni filter are in the mail. I'm considering taking the stickers off for weight reduction and hp gain.... Gotta go out and wash the mudd off so I can do an oil change..... |
