    Now I just need to wait until my detached retina finishes healing. But the son can practice on it after I get a new chain slider.

    Let me know where you are so I can try to get close.


    Going to tow up myself. Most likely just crash in my trailer. Also have room for more.

    So if I head up there on Wednesday evening or Thursday morning, I'll have to track you guys down somewhere in the mountains? Do you know where you're parking the cars/trucks?

    H22's place in Hinton. Very easy to get to and only like 30 mins or so from Nat Chim. We'll be at his place Thurs night most likely.

    Nice bike! It's going to be a blast on the mud road. Heal up quickly!

    Wow, that thing looks a lot nicer than it did in the Craigslist photos! Replace the giant rear tail light monstrosity with a WPS taillight for $12 and you are set.

    By the way, what the heck is a detached retina? Sounds horrible.

    It is bad. One can loose their sight. If you see dark black floaters that don't go away in a few hours go right away. I got lasered and a gas bubble in my eye. Face down for a few days. I was lucky some have to stay face down for a month. Sugar Ray Leonard had this.

    Ordered a filter and chain sliders. Need a rack and aluminum handle bars. Maybe an XR250R carb and exhaust. Mod the intake and an XR650 air filter. It will never end until the big bore kit. The frame on the righ side has a little rust discoloration on the white paint.

    2005 KTM 450 EXC. Been wanting an RFS bike for a number of years and finally bit the bullet. Only has 1300 miles of mostly fire roading on it. Definitely WAAAAAAYYYYYY undersprung for someone of my stature. But I am beyond stoked! :clap Runs strong and is in great shape for an 8 year old.

    Anybody have any experience replacing shock springs on a PDS shock?

    Cheers :beer Ken
