Yeah - that's me. I guess I should have told you all up front, but what fun would there be in that?

Larry, Thanks for opening up your property for us. I had a great time even though my learning curve was huge. :shock: Troy - thanks for hanging back with me, showing the "easy" way.... :D I learned a lot and found that it truly is "mostly mental"....... I did stuff I never thought I would and probab...

Hey Larry....My brother and I are planning to come down.

I just bought a 2015 Triumph Tiger 800 XCX. I'm getting ready to replace the tires. I have not checked the wheels yet, but if they need to be trued and the spokes torqued, is there anyone in town that you can recommend? Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestions. Linn county has some really good riding , Mound City area and clear over to the Garnett area ,mostly between the two including north and south 20 miles each way. If you are interested in that area I have some routes I can look up and email you. bird man - I would love to ...

All - My brother is heading into KC the first weekend in June (4-6) with his CRF250L. We were planning on participating in the Flint Hills Stampede and were all signed up until my wife informed me that that Saturday night is our daughter's graduation party. He was looking forward to the Stampede sin...

I know that's true for KS but I haven't heard that that applies to MO. I think it's still possible in MO with the mods he listed.

Is this it? Ark 500: https://advrider.com/f/threads/arkansas ... 0.1424470/

Ha! I wish I could afford that.

I have the week between Christmas and New Year's off and am thinking about finding a warm location to ride. Last year at this time, I went to Texas Hill Country. It was fun, but thinking about trying somewhere different this year, but I am open to go back. I'm thinking that about 12 hrs drive is my ...

At this point I am planning to. Hope the rain stay mostly away.

Posted the actual link in case the CL link expires.

Thanks! I sent you an email.

How long you going to be down there? I plan on heading down the 29th to ride the hill country. I'm meeting a friend the first day or so (30th and 31st most likely).

Where are the coils located? Sometimes when they start to go bad, they work until they get hot. After they cool down, they start working again. The gas cap idea previously mentioned came to mind as well because you said that it starts back up after a few minutes. Not sure the coils would cool down t...

It may be closer to $3k depending on shipping costs. For the full Level 3 kit, you have to buy Level 2 (suspension) and Level 3 (wheels). http://www.rally-raidproducts.co.uk/honda-cb500x-cb500f

If you are leaning toward the heavier end (V-Strom et al) you should also consider the CB500x. Many have taken it off-road as is (and some have put on TKC80 tires) or you could go hog wild and put the $3500 Rally-Raid kit on it. It makes it taller with more travel basically. Seems like quite a few K...

Sorry for a newb question - What/Where is Carbondale?

I guess my attempt at humor kind of missed a bit. You posted this in the Classified section, not in the Rides section. Maybe Troy could move it for you?

Thanks for setting this up Luc. We saw some really neat places and fun roads.

If any of you get a chance to take part in this in the future, DO IT. Three of of us had Adv type bikes (the others were a KLR and a KTM 500) and had a great time. If it gets too tough, there are ride-arounds.
