True. I had the dates wrong. I will be leaving on a week long ride Monday on a bike that I bought for $250 and currently have only ridden around the block. So I might be walking. If I break down soon enough I could still make the event. 😂 -

Looks fun, probably can’t make it due to family in town. -
I snagged up a Rade Garage rally tower a couple years ago when it was on sale for my 690. Not only does it look awesome, it has great LED headlights that are DOT legal and includes a nice USB power port and areas to mount your choice of navigation. Also helps a fair amount keeping me comfortable on the highway between dirt sections. Mostly it looks awesome, though!

I know someone else that had the same thing happen. Maybe it’s not common, but you’re not the only one that’s been down that road.

I watched that video yesterday, pretty neat way to get to those out of the way trails. I fixed up a little mini bike like this for my brother in law several years ago. He got it for Christmas when he was a kid and his family had kept it. I "restored" it as close to original condition as I could, when I test rode it the chain kept falling off and I couldn't keep it on. He said it did that from day one, so I guess I did a good job.

None of the gear and none of the clothing. No nudity is desired during my Noobs rides, I want to make that clear!

That’s me, the noob/boob/nudist camping event guy. I am watching the weather and my calendar but it will be posted on the forum and cross posted on Facebook whenever it happens.

Fall Baja ride. Canon de Guadalupe.
tntmo replied to bajadog's topic in Upcoming Organized or Promoted Rides and Events
I did the pre run with Kelly. Nice ride out there, I couldn’t remember what the cost was to stay but thought it was considerably more than $20. Here’s the video from our ride. Baja Adventure: Canyon de Guadalupe on the Yamaha Super Ténéré https://youtu.be/nJlkZ_AXKWQ -
I remember a few of the posted camp trips up there, been wanting to put one together again. I have not camped up there yet, so it's on my radar.

I should be back in town, so I put it on my agenda.

Paging @PaulyPickles, we should try to get one going to Otay maybe?? -
There’s a 2003 on FB marketplace for $1500 right now with $800 back fees. Would make a good donor possibly?
-
I have a GSXR1000 engine sitting here just looking for a home! Yeah, it might be cheaper to find a non plated donor bike? Then you could swap the engine in and have lots of spares or sell off the rest to recoup some of the cost.

Small bikes - Big fun! -
I’m pretty jealous, both are high on my list.

I haven't seen this rig yet, searching now.

It looks smaller and easier to maneuver off road than a BMW GS!

Two thingies to put in air? Tubliss!
-
If you have an air compressor, you can easily check if the slide/diaphragm is installed correctly and working right. Use an air nozzle and put about 10-20 psi in the port at the top backside of the carb. The slide should rise, when you release the pressure it should drop. I usually try to slowly modulate the air pressure to see if it goes up smoothly.

Had a last minute invite to ride up to the towers out there yesterday. It’s so colorful right now, the flowers are looking good!

Sometimes we overlook the simple stuff, I know it's bitten me a few times. Once I was working on a DRZ400 that seemed sluggish, did a bunch of stuff before I checked the oil and found it way overfilled (the vacuum petcock failed and filled the crankcase with gasoline).
