Anyone know if the Motor units are using hand held stationary measuring devices on the bikes or do they have some latest tech moving devices. Not that it matters to me. I will be on the back dirt country and two tracks.😊

Will you be bringing it down to Iron Horse in May with Big B's M/C gang? and if you do would you like to do some ADV stuff down there?

No one ever go's the last day. Do they?

Great Doc, I hope I can show you some great ADV routes down near the gap. O-Shit, Waite, You did not buy a new V-Strom did you. Had to have that cruze control.

Congrats on the new bike. I guess we will be seeing you group riding around the (windy nine) with a stuffed animal on the rear top case and wearing a leather vest with patches. I will still wave

Just got my conformation. I don't know if this is with the 15% discount they offer for Military. If we arrived at the same time we could SWAP wives at check in since mine is also retired military. I will need her back in good shape when we get to our rooms.😎 Arrival: Thursday, June 6, 2019 4:00pm Departure: Sunday, June 9, 2019 11:00am Nights: 3 Room Type Requested:L1K Lodge Room 1 King Bed Total Room Before Amount Before Tax:$322.15 Total With Taxes: $363.21

Just booked 6-9 June Fontana Lodge room, For the wife and I.

This is starting to sound official now . "Max Power" are you bringing your better half or just two motorcycles? would you be interested in doing a day or two of ADV stuff?

I have had, Progressive, Ohlins and some may remember S&W street stokers all twin shocks and I feel Hyper Pro & Wilbers are top shelf build quality and with the add on up grade features to allow easy fine tuning. I am happy with my money spent. Again this is just an opinion of a old fart and I am sure anything you upgrade to will be just fine. Good luck, I hope you are happy with what ever you decide. B.

I currently have a Hyper pro 461custom $1300 built to my needs rear shock and I also had a custom $1200 Wilbers 629 rear shock on my 04 Strom. Naturally with proper front spring/fluid and emulators. Klaus Huenecke at EPM is a master and will help you thru the process. I haven't upgraded my Z1000 other that spring at both ends and fluid change since I mostly ride it with my wife on her Spyder and that could be handled with a hard tail. Klaus also gives you one free rebuilt during the life of the shock. YMMV http://epmperf.com/

You both may get old someday, But I doubt it....🤡

I have hit all but roadrunner and skull cracker. Most all of these have great ADV connector routes that are great and can be FUN. Max's, Do you have 4 to 6 day's to ride the KAT in 2016?

I sold my 2004 back in 2011. Great purchase Chris. For ADV and Desert work it could use a 6th gear but Yamaha would loose sales of the extremely popular wr250. I changed gearing and was able to run with the Honda 650 on the fast Desert roads out west. It can be a beast in the Ohio single track woods for old farts. There is a gray wire mod you may want to do and also the standard carb stuff. For great information check out: https://thumpertalk.com/forums/forum/12-wr400f426f450f/ YES to the WR450's 04WR450 by

I have used this place a few times for some stuff. Not to shabby. http://www.briarrabbit.com/

Jim, I will be out of town but.... "I Can Dig it" Jim er, Cyrus https://youtu.be/bTUrWYv2vtU

Will do. I do enjoy our ADV rides we have been doing and I am sure it's a great time with O.R. at the Gap Each year I have the March Moto Madness March 28-31 Tellico Plains, TN and V-Strom East Gathering May 16-19 Iron Horse Lodge, TN If one one those events rain out I am sure I could make the June time frame. I just hope I can hang with you all. I am growing old. Old Mac by I

Hocking Hills: Low of 42 tonight High of 57 on Sunday. Start at 10am with some low speed two track and gravel with speed at or below 45 with a lot of body movement on the bike. Perfect conditions unless you fall in one of the flooded road sections and get wet. 😁 It's all good

10am Breakfast at Old Town Diner: 16098 Pike St, Laurelville, OH 43135 Got a 140 mile "ish" loop easy gravel with curvy asphalt connectors. So far just me:V-Strom and Benly on a WR250 Could be muddy with water in spots.
