How about getting a large tank to store the fuel in like I have seen on farms. I don't if this is still legal given the environmental issues this could raise.

A better idea is to put the $2,000.00 on the Bears next week and use the profits to buy fuel

You found the right place! Troy and KC have done a lot of geocaching. I plan to start so there should be a lot of this on some of our Kansas City area rides at the least.

I guess all balls will have the same issues overheating due to to liquid and friction. Also shrinkage secondary to and with cold temps, like a frighten turtle, Jerry

Well back to working on my son's pinewood derby car!

I just saw this product and was wondering if any of you have tried them or know of any one that has? Seems like it would work and I like the idea of no flats!

Well bad news on Tim Hall This is from his website:

Tim made a high-speed jump from his bike during Stage 6. He has dislocated his hip and is being Medivaced to a hospital in the Canary Islands.

Wishing him a speedy recovery!

This sucks and is a sad day I read on Tim's site that this has hit him hard, Elmer helped him out a lot in preping for the race.

The Husky team is out due to injury and a fuel line repair that took too long and cause the other rider to miss the start time.

Hi guys a friend of Sean Noll's is doing well in this years ralley. His name is Tim Hall #149. He is in 203rd place after stage 3. Just to finish the ralley is very impressive. Here is a link to Tim's website: http://24.240.192.148/ There is also a lot of information on http://www.Dakar.com. Since I...

The difference between the procycle kit and others, like the trick kit, is about $150. Do you think it's worth that much?

Without a doubt! Plus Cyclezone or LetKo will be there for technical assistance if you need it.

If you go with the procycle stuff a few things to keep in mind. Don't use the connectors they supply; solder all of the connections. Remember your KTM will vibrate and those crimp connectors can come lose. Go buy some shrink wrap and some small flexible plastic conduit. The procycle wires aren't wel...

Dang! I went all the way down there and they are closed today! I even called and got their v/m and they didn't mention holiday hours. I will stop by later in the week and I will update you what I find out.

I'm heading to Letko this morning to drop off my shock and forks for Lee to rebuild. I will ask him about DSing an 01 400 EXC and the cost.

I would call Lee at letko and talk with him about what you want to do. Their number is 913-334-2410. I know of another KTM dealership in Topeka I think it is called cyclezone and I have heard good things about their shop too. Another good resource is the KTMtalk webiste, I'm sure there is someone th...

Hey Tye, I too got a kit from procycle and be aware that it is "generic" conversion kit for all bikes. From a painful and costly experience I would suggest taking your bike to LetKo and have them do the conversion for you. I believe they have factory parts that will hook right up and keep you from s...

how much is the cush hub and do you think its needed on the street? i know there are 2 schools of thought. I am not sure how much the KTM hub will cost, I haven't priced it yet. on AdVRider Woody from Woody's Wheel Works says he has developed a new hub that will accept the KTM cush drive rubbers an...

OOOH. Me seriously likey. Don't do it Troy, stay away from of the evil orange light! :twisted: LetKo had/has a new 2007 TE 450 Husky sitting on their showroom floor. It too is street legal and cost $800.00 to $1,000.00 less than the KTM. But the old DR350 is paid for, running great and goes anywher...

I got into GPS when my wife wanted a compass. So we now have a Garmin Street Pilot 330 and she still doesn't have a compass. :shock: I love it! It is a touch screen and is very user friendly. I take it on all my business trips and it has saved my a$$ several times. It will not only find an address, ...

RideForum.NET has only been online about 24 hours, but I'm very encouraged by the momentum we have going. There are a LOT of BackroadsTouring riders that I know, but do not know how to contact them to tell them about RideForum.NET. If any of you have a way to contact any of these guys (and a ton th...

Flipping quarters, not sure what to do right now. I like the XRR but it was getting too hot and hard to start in AR. I am thinking a fan first and see how that works. I have no trouble starting it if I keep plenty of air flow going through those radiators. I have also got on some kind of Motard kic...

OOHH!! a for sale section, classifieds, what ever. I may be selling some bikes soon and the BTK site was going to be my first place to advertise. :D Hayden Hey Tracy, Did you get a magic button on your new Honda yet??? Also, I remember you saying that you really liked the KTM 525 EXC, is there one ...
