Very short notice, but I might take the DRZ up and over Lewis and/or Ben Lomond in a couple hours. There will be some snow, for sure, so I don't know how epic the ride will be. Anybody who wants to is welcome to come. Probably my last ride this year! Jared 801 - eight nine six - three...

Doesn't look like a fun trip for a shiny, new bike! Thanks for sharing the vids, Greg. I'm jealous, even though it looked rough! Jared

So how's today's epic ride in Moab? Sitting at my house has been a real riot. Jared

Define "after work". Got a time and location? Jared

Well, I am officially out. It was tenuous at best getting the next two Fridays off after just returning from a 10-day vacation. But, one of our three man Ogden crew quit today so there is no way I can get the day off now. Have fun! Jared

Been there, done that. Dirt bikes are a ton of fun there, but my wife, 8 year old boy, and 6 year old girl don't fit. The hard part now is making time for both! Awesome... I just installed my Maxxis Desert tire about 50 miles ago... So, I just remembered that I need to finish installing a...

Then I should be just fine on a desert-tanked DRZ..... right? :) Jared

I am totally on board for hitching a ride and am happy to chip in for fuel. I am 90% for sure in. But, I am in New York now and have a Jeep trip to Moab the following week. Jared

No can do. I would be up for the weekend after, or maybe before, especially if I can get a ride down with someone. Jared

I so want in. I can't do it this weekend or the weekend of 11/3-11/4 (Jeeping in Moab...) but other weekends should work. Jared

Is the front a vacuum disconnect style? If not I'm interested. I have zero need for the rear though. Thanks, Jared

Dirt bike ride up above Pineview Reservoir near Ogden this evening. This was taken on a cell phone... wish I had the real camera!

Tonight's ride was great! My dad is 61 and hasn't ridden a dirt bike in probably 15+ years. He went down 4 times, but just has a few scratches to show for it. I ended up putting him on my DRZ and riding the RM125 for most of the evening. That little sucker has ZERO low power! Anyway, you...

You bet. Post up when you guys are ready and we can do it again! Jared

I just parked a Jeep on mine and put a 20 ton bottle jack under the middle until it looked right after removing the jack. K.I.S.S. (keep it simple, stupid) If that doesn't work (meaning it just lifts the trailer), chain an I-beam under the axle and put the jack between the I-beam and axle. I...

OPEN INVITE Thursday 9/20 4:30-5:00PM Departure I am planning a quick, after-work ride in the Ogden area. We will be riding from Pineview Dam to North Ogden Divide (13 miles or so each way, all single-track) and back. If time and desires dictate, we may continue up to Ben Lomond Peak as...

I have a kick-only DRZ and have been pretty happy with it so far. It will break 90MPH and has plenty of power for trails, fire roads, desert, or whatever. The 450's will outrun it, but not by much. I get 30 MPG while riding it HARD in dirt, probably more like 50 on road only. Its road...

Awesome trip report guys! Jared

Where is "the Chevron gas station?" There is a remote chance I can make this. Thanks, Jared

Thanks, Russ. I had a great time too - you guys have a good group of guys. It was fun even with the DUST and coming out in the dark with my toy headlight! I took the freeway home and found my boots covered in motor oil when I arrived. Turns out the leak was a loose bolt on the cam chain...
