  1. Beautiful day, thrashed it and stopped out at the folks house for a minute.
  2. Got the bike back from the tuner's and can't wait to play this weekend. Not really anything I did today, but just glad to get it back in my garage. Sunday is looking decent so I'll try to get a few miles in. Can't adequately say how great it was to work with J.D. Hord on the tune and overheating issue. Easy going, fast, and reasonable. 126 whp and as long I keep from slicing coolant lines it should last a while!
  3. That system is great, clearly useful and confidence building for the off road adventures. Very cool man.
  4. I'm about to pick up a second set of wheels for the same. I'll try to keep up with you in the corners at least!
  5. Rear tire? Are you running slicks this year?
  6. Yeah man, get lucky every so often. After the bolt incident the motorcycle gods took mercy on this one.
  7. Just talked to JD, "it's peachy". He replaced the hose and ran it on the dyno for a minute and nothing bad happened. New oil and it's getting the real tune soon. Looking forward to getting it back but I've had some time to play with the xr, so it's all good.
  8. There's at least one race at PIRC this year.
  9. And one featuring the most common bikes, the Stock Moto class with XR/CRF100s:
  10. This is so much fun and lots of good people, I hope to see some more OR folks at these events. If anyone wants to try it out but doesn't have a bike, mine is open to be borrowed for a race or practice. Most fun I've had on two wheels, period.
  11. That's not an overflow drain line. It rests in a channel in the countershaft cover, but I misplaced it when I put it back together when I put the O2 resistor in during PCV install.
  12. Didn't smell, no puddles, probably because it was all gone by the time I got to the garage.
  13. Thought I had when I checked the reservoir. As tagged, I'm a dumbass. I'm looking for new engines now...
  14. Well a coolant line got sliced by the chain when I put the countershaft cover back on. Ran extremely low on coolant. I just topped off the resivoir, it wasn't totally dry and never popped the cap on the radiator to check the level. We'll see how bad I fucked this up when the line gets replaced and thrown on the dyno. Ouch. Breath deep, it's just a toy, it's just a toy...
  15. Don't know man, I'd like to keep it the way it is, maybe get a different rear wheel/tire for a little better touring setup. My Woodcraft rearsets aren't too adjustable, but I can shift them a little...
