Probably be there around 9-10am

I wasn’t able to ride last weekend.... sorry just saw this. actually I have been doing some riding but always alone which is fine but sometimes would like to ride more technically challenging stuff but because of a bad experience in Parker Arizona I am not willing to do that again (being the Lone Ranger) could have used Tonto that day.

I have not been on here for a couple years and I am not seeing any rides coming up ( informal) I would call myself an intermediate rider but have done very little riding anyone who has time and wants to ride I am not sure what has changed as far as the trails I was surprised at the changes at McCain anyway.

Thanks for the reply PDB its my bad for posting in the wrong place, I am not on here very much as I spend 7 months back in Ohio. I just love this bike and with the rekluse set up the way you like it there isn't much you can't do with it granted it is a heavy bike, when its rolling you don't notice the weight. Compared to strret legal bikes just a few years ago its quite agile. This same model and year bike without a rekluse and with approx 4500 miles are listed for from $6900-$7500. I considered the mileage although I think this will run into the future with no problems, I assumed most guys would shy away. That is why I listed it for $1500-$2000 less than others found on Craigslist, E-Bay and KTM Talk I did not look on Thumper Talk not realistic to think someone would ship very far ? I am not trying to get more than its worth just trying to pay some bills been out of work for several months now.I think the $1500 + would be a good buffer, and give someone who wants a solid fun bike the incentive to go ahead and buy.I think you could easily get another 6-7K easily if properly maintained. I have many extra's from rekluse such as tungsten balls and 6 differnt combinations of springs. along with different thickness of plates. If you have one of these you might know what I am refereeing to. TMI I know ha ha

PdbBlue before you make statements like this come on over, let me show you the compression and the maintenance history for this bike. Why would you attempt to trash a bike you don't have any interest in. I didn't try to cover up the mileage, my bad for not giving full history of this bike, RJ from AA Ktm is aware of the condition of this motorcycle and commented that it was one of two that he knew of being in such good condition with the time on the meter, it doesn't just happen it is the result of attention to detail.

This bike has considerable time on it ,but the valves have never gone out of spec the stock shims are still there still right on, the compression is still on the high side of spec. I changed the oil every 10 hrs, and filter. Always used the best synthetic oil Amsoil 20W50 Cleaned air filter every ride. This bike has never been close to the rev limiter. I am a trail rider and I kept it meticulously, including taking it apart to clean with soap and water and paint brush every ride. I changed fork oil and bushings and seals last year, swingarm bearings and seals last fall and didn't really need to be done. So please don't compare to the average motorcycle with some time on it.

I will be present at the dash and available to sweep as I told Randy at the last meeting ? Just say'n ?

I and my good friend Pat are possibly planning about a week in San Diego sometime in February. I have a bike already out there, but would like to rent,or borrow a bike for a couple rides that week for my friend he is a solid B rider and we would only be doing some trail riding, possibly McCain Valley or Corral Canyon so it wouldn't have to be street legal, but would like the option of Dual Sport if possible.

IF I have two bikes then, maybe I can spare one Hit corral on a Sunday or Monday and maybe I can ride with you arriving on 11th so maybe 17th or 18th actually I will be out there for several weeks, work is real slow here so I am outta here.

I missed this one but I'm in for the next

So today I jump on my dualsport bike to run some errands, along the way decided to hit the trail to the top of black mtn. The gate is closed bummer and why? was considering some illegal activity when I saw Josh sitting on the beginning of the trail (forgot the name of it) that connects with black canyon rd a newbie on a KLX 250 didn't know where the trail went, so I offered to show him up to mesa verde when we got there he needed some gas so went Santa Ysabel from there we had about an hour of sunlight so we backtracked to Pama rd I started with a t-shirt and about this time temp were maybe low 60's so I stepped up the pace, Josh was an awesome rider for the level of experience he had and that KLX did a good job made it back to Romona about dark and the ride to Poway was very cool. Josh a new member of SDAR posted his intentions to ride North County I didn't see it so the meeting on the trail was random, but turned into a nice sat afternoon adventure. about 97 miles.

Ya Paul been here since mid october got laid off and taking care of some family issues and riding motorcycle's I will probably be here for a few more weeks.

Ok now change to smiley face ha ha enjoyed riding with you Josh

Appreciate the thought, I was thinking someone from SD would be riding this year, I guess when you limit it to 75 riders and they come from all over the world odds go up.

I am riding the Colorado 600 this year last week of August. I am currently living and working in Ohio and will be driving to Colorado. I am looking for someone from San Diego who would be riding this event and could possibly transport my KTM 530 back to San Diego. I will pay for this service. I need to get this bike back out there so I have an Off Road mount when I am out there a couple times a year, at least until I can get work out there so I can relocate there again. I have family in Poway and Romona. Thanks, Jeff Stein 419-957-7434 roostingu@hotmail.com

Thanks Jon hope to be riding socal soon most likely this winter

in real life someday
