Re: ADV WestFest Montana and Idaho

Hey Lee, was watching a guy's spot tracker on the 50/50 ride saturday, the only two that completed it were Will and Jen. There were quite a few paved passes but next year is supposed to be the toughest yet with lots of singletrack. :idea:

Eskridge was in the ADV KC photo tag thread recently, cool old bank and the vintage bread billboard on the side of the grocery store is really cool! :D

Re: Need Help with Electrical

Can you make a small jumper wire with ring terminals on both ends? Made a call to a former bmw tech for some coaching. 1150's don't have CANBUS, so you can probably make a short jumper, recommended soldered ring terminals with bolts and 6ga wire, take care not to short across ABS, could get expensiv...

Re: To SIT or to STAND that is the ? But is standing LEGAL?!

A friend of mine is a Capt. in the KCPD and I asked him about standing. He said most of the KC police have better things to do then pull someone over for standing however it will cause them to watch you closely to see if you do anything else. When you were briefly lit up by the unmarked popo after ...

ADV WestFest Montana and Idaho

Having always wanted to venture beyond Colorado, this years ADV westfest rally was the perfect opportunity to have a support network and riding buddies. It was based in the Bitterroot valley of western Montana in the small town of Darby. The elevations weren't as high as what you'd get in CO, but it...

I'd wondered what you were up to this weekend, Eddie. I was in Arkansas last weekend for the SLAP rally, rode friday with Njoytheride from Ozark AR to brunch at Oark and on to points east. Saturday, I led a group of six across fly gap to lunch at Oark. I had coconut pie at lunch and buttermilk pie a...

Re: Mountain ride to help you think about summer

Yes, got out yesterday for about 50 miles, it runs very well for stock. I think I'll get out again today dressed a little warmer. I've had a couple of nibbles on the Husky from here on your site. I'm a little overpriced with the miles, half worn tires and most guys prefer the uptite skid plate.

Re: Heading to Texas

Supposedly Penske's trucks are usually in better condition and much cheaper that uhaul. You're not alone, an ADV rockies inmate is stuck in Amarillo on a fly-n-ride back to CO from GA with his new to him 990. He's getting a truck.

Re: Looking for a DOT knobby

If anyone has a line on a good non-DOT knobby that has good longevity and reasonable price, I'm fine with it.... I don't need to have DOT. The Maxxiss Maxcross IT is sold as a dirt-only tire. I only discovered by accident it had a DOT designation stamped on it. 120/100-18 (150! probably feels slow ...
