when i get 300 back together... you will know bout it..

Let me know as I have 2 qty 380 excs now, a 98 and a 99.
Good you are getting rebuild experience on the 300.
I may need to hire you on the 99 , much easier to kick over than 98
(compression difference for sure).
I need to test it out soon as the weather breaks, the 98 is minty fresh.

I got a flyer for the rally last weekend at the gun show! I'll definitely make a trip up for it!

Well I changed my oil and filter, and the air filter and box appeared untouched by fuel, but was unable to get the carb apart due to not having a garage and the fact that one I was using was dark dirty hole that would be all to easy to lose little bits in. So until I can get the carb apart to properly address the problem shutting off the fuel and running the bowl empty is gonna have to do I guess. Not having a garage in this weather is quite a pain.

A little off topic but i know you guys will like it! Many great DIY videos like how to hang a ceiling fan or this one. How to field strip and clean your AR15. http://www.eyehandy.com/sports/how-to-field-strip-and-clean-an-ar-15-rifle-with-ashley/ they even have some great mechanical video's. So go check it out.

One of the coolest vids I've seen so far, for sure!

i have seen videos of people crossing the vitim bridge at idle... even walking bike across shatting themselves the whole way.

crazy spaniards.. :huh

To hell with the flu bug... Whats up with the orange bug goin around?

Speaking of the orange, I was at Westfield Yamaha on Saturday and they had about 10 of the orange bikes lined up in the showroom... apparently they are now a KTM dealer. Nice looking bikes... they had one street legal 350EXC-F... tasty.

Hi guys, I'm looking for the name of a ride coming up. I had marked on my calender for March 23-24. Southern Indiana to Kentucky. Cant seem to find it now, anybody know?

This weeks lunch run going to be back down to Route58 cafe again by chance? Gotta go back and see if they stocked up on bacon for my cheeseburger yet...

found it, thanks

I'm up for the cafe. The chicken fried steak was fantastic!

new vstrom owner near Seymour hit me up with pm on strom forum... invite him to lunch, guys...his contact info is Greg O'Brien 812-528-087eight

Woodsrat and I have been chewin the fat about different types of Moto events and came to the conclusion that it would be fun to try one.
This post is to gauge interest among our band of merry eatery meeter's and flash mob riders.

The event would be a Time, Speed, Distance course. Where riders try to follow a course with hints, turns and speeds, ultimately to arrive at checkpoints at predetermined times. The rider that hits all the points closest to the prescribed times will take home the gold.

It would take place on the many small back roads that we all like to piddle on. Best of all, anyone could do this. I think it would be a great way to put a twist on a ride.

And besides, who could resist a big bacon breakfast in the morning and a awards dinner at the return...

So.... What say you?

I'm up fer it.

Im down. Even though ill be working on day it probably happens i can do it later to tickle my fancy.

ummmmmmmmm yup
Now I need to dig out my VDO Enduro Clock.

Well, so much for nick showing up then... He cant do squat without some sort of electronic doo dad runnin or blinking..
