TrophyHunter 15 Posted February 4, 2014 Welcome aboard. Yup, McCain = Lark. Missed today's ride out there but I bet it was great after the rain. Don't hesitate to post up as many are just looking for a nudge to go ride. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bikeslut 1 Posted February 4, 2014 Sundays work for me. Were close,Im on Victoria. Is Lark the same as Mc Cain Valley riding area. Lets go ride some time. I was just there today- McCain Lark is a great place to ride, as there is a lot of variety and challenges...if one type of trail doesn't work, we can always find another I'm curious about the RMZ- looking for a track bike closer in size to my DRZ, in an effort to save my failing knee- the puny bikes are uncomfortable Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ken S 164 Posted February 4, 2014 About the RMZ 450. I went to buy a WR 450 but wanted to screw me on the financing. I got 0 interest on the Suzuki. I'm not a motocross rider. One piece at a time I'm turning into a trail bike. Stock tank was 1.6 gal. Got a 3.2. It's very squirlly in sand. Added a Scott's steering stabilizer. Still need to have the suspension dialed in for my weight. I'm 270 lbs. front end is awesome but the rear is to soft, although is like riding a soft couch rite now. Over all I love the bike. It's my first brand new bike. I love going out and not having to worrying about breaking down. Crashing is another story. I'm staying out of the dunes for awhile. Your welcome to try it out Also it seems to fit me better than my buddies yz450. Starts first kick. Brakes awesome. Corners like a dream. Also stock radiator cap was 1.1 psi. Blows water out single tracking. Went to a 1.6 psi cap. Seemed to fix that issue. Next is a trails style rear tire. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
