Same here.. we're over a foot and forecast another foot today.

All morning I've been working on servers remotely that got shutdown overnight due to power outages

I wonder how much snow Rangely has? (where this photo is taken)

None in Rangely, 20% chance. Winter park looks like it is only getting a few inches. Should have went to Moab this weekend. 50 deg there, but I didn't want to fight I-70 all the way...

thanks for the kind words gents... I just buy stuff and stick it on like most of us. It is guys like Craig, Kurt, Ned, Pyndon, Scot, etc that actually design and build stuff from scratch are the for me.




Current Status
(i.e. this is my todo list for myself so I don't forget anything.. I have waaaay to many projects on the go right now )

-Emig 20 mm offset clamps & damper - at the anodizer. btw.. if you disassemble yours, you push the main shaft out the bottom but be sure and support the lower on either side of the hole so you don't bend it (advice from the mouth of Mr. Emig himself ).



-New Highwaydirtbikes.com top clamp for Emigs: on order.

-new carb sync tool on order (finally ordered a 6537)


-HID bulbs - have arrived (direct from china again) need to be installed along with new bracket.


I picked up two bulbs this time.. one to store under the seat as a spare incase I manage to burn it out at the worst possible time (like last time - during our annual overnight "Jekyl&Hyde" ride )


-suspension & stands - still on bench. hopefully next weekend


-carbon fiber exhaust shield: on order from cjdesigns


-remote fuel screws: on order


-remote oil drain - still waiting on Summit to send me the one backorderd black piece


-need to check valves.
-need to check brake pads and flush brakes
-need to clean uni (anyone know who sells the uni condoms?)

-Note: NO OIL IN BIKE! Don't start it you idjit.

-Prototype exhaust system project: hopefully this month but more likely March?
