Juan is the Man

Yes, Another Forum might be more productive.

Now that every motorized enthusiast owns a UTV, Do you think they are lobbying for a venue close to home?? The BLM may find it easier and cheaper to “ crowd us in “. Than to do the work for a new location. I would push the safety issue to make BLM do a proper effort.

So, I guess the Explor systems are Open Chamber as well as the PDS.

Having difficulty visualizing how this part attaches to the Explor fork. Best guess is at bottom of the polished leg in the aluminum casting that holds the compression adjuster on a PDS system. Having looked at the parts explosion does not help much. The parts diagram seems to show two springs and two valve stacks. I thought the Explor system had only one of each. 🤷‍♂️ Thanks for any Light on the subject. P.S. Correct me please, I am thinking there are two valve stacks. Rebound in the top and Compression at the bottom. This Blue part is the compression function, correct?

Hey George, Congrats on your " New " partnership. Secure your seatbelt, be prepare for a rocket ride. Dave

HBD, We are all Wishing you another year of Success. Bagstr

Mimi, Where do you get off having a perfect riding day? You are the cleverest person on this blog. Dave

Mr. Amgems, May I suggest a threaded hole and machine screw. That aluminum is soft. Good item for periodic check. Mr. Bagstr

Always an excellent report. Thank you Mimi

1. 2. 3. 4.

I suppose this is a good time to remodel with a Spring Opening. Your Moto Centric buddy has a good deal of optimism. Best of Luck, see you in March

HBD Z,,, I am hoping the Exploration is continuing... Bagstr

Yah, Dude is riding a Harley up San Pasquale Valley. Keep O Keepin’ On. 😎

Edit April 6, 2020 Obviously Health Recommendations have evolved - I my opinion we need to think about First Responders and Medical personnel that we might put an additional burden on. Since 50% of the infected population are not displaying symptoms, we have no idea who is spreading what. No, I am not riding or driving out to the Desert “Respirators, ventilators, all of the equipment — try getting it yourselves,” Mr. Trump told the governors during the conference call, a recording of which was shared with The New York Times. Yes, We are on our own. I will be riding in groups of 10 or less; at a 10ft distance. 😎

The sponsoring senator represents Santee. Would “ a person” be in error to think he represents an effort to maintain access, since it is due to Expire in ‘21?

Paul, Hey I am Thankful that I discovered the Large text function. Am I mistaken or What? Do you not use a DOT configuration? Why do you care: Re the Green/ Red crowd? D

“Has met little opposition and passed committees unanimously”

“Kinder ,Gentler; more sedate trail pace” and the XR250R back story inspire me. Glad to hear you are not resting on past achievements and instead searching out all the coyote trails for the hard way. Seriously, enjoy the whole story. B

Thrilling story Robert

Outstanding - That the Group hit the road. And Ken, What did you find for Dinner?

HA

The Back Story As many of you know, The Park has been closed to vehicular travel since March. That has been painful; to watch the conditions go from perfect to the dry soft conditions we have now. Because of an ongoing communication Chanel I have with the superintendent ( thanks to the hard work of The Mystery Man in Black ), I knew that the park was due to open last week. Thursday at 6pm the park website updated visitation policy. Dispersed travel OK but no camping. Based on the weather prediction, we committed to Saturday. Because it is the desert, it is not workable to have 19 riders on the trail. The call went out to the regular cast of characters; plus The Kug. The Kug works for a living and can’t ride with us during the week. ( Why he still does that, I have no idea) 😎 Not everyone could make it on short notice, so a solid group of four showed up in Borrego Springs ready to ride at 0700. Well Not everyone! I gave my best effort getting up at 4:15,,,,,still and all arriving at 7:10 to Dark Looks. 😏. 7:35 we finally set out for 4.5 hrs and 74 miles of exclusive use of the facility. Kug, SoCalMule, the Mystery in Black and myself. Solid group of skilled sand riders. Yes Kug , you included. Surprisingly, the desert surface was frozen in time from the March Rains. Flat crusty washes with new cut banks and channels down the old familiar routes. Dry but no tour truck channels. Many familiar routes were all but unrecognizable. Delicious. The best part of the journey was the few stops / breaks when we could catch up on all the personal details of our pals lives. Almost as good as a Texting thread. Ha. The wind blew but that was a help in the dry conditions. Our old friend, the Anza Borrego DSP was rested and welcoming. Thanks to all for the effort necessary to make it happen. I promise to never commit to showing up before 0700 again. Bagstr

Mike, I am ready for you. Dave PS. What is Up with the wait? Is it a 2021?

Bump Getting ready to do a run in the Sand; After review, my memory is refreshed. Fresh intel from my Dez Contact tells me the sand has dried. 😎 Thinking to run the forks "down" to one ring for the softness of being. My first Repor was in idea conditions, now, no so much. George, word is you are busy with the scofflaws that have been riding through the Virus Pandemic. As you have time, It seems time to have a Suspension Day would benefit understanding. With serious 10ft physical distancing. Looking for absolution, Bagstr
