Hope it goes this time.

I can go during the week in the evenings if we dont have to go to antelope island to pickup a broken bike to come along... ;)

I have no practical input, but I want to see pictures for ideas.

Well thanks guys! I really enjoyed this one! I left the WR rear fender because I like that it has a taillight. I spent a fair bit of time refurbishishing the plastic on it so it looked great too. Anyways I'm putting this up for sale I guess. Bills came in for the new baby and insurance pulled...

I'm about done here Works Connection radiator braces This bike just needed a little love to push it over the line. New plastics and just because it makes it look lots better: a 2016 front fender.

First ride video. It's pretty quick. I've forgotten some of the subtleties of riding a 4 stroke but here you go. [video=youtube;ts231U0Rl68]

wouldn't be hard to fab a set or watch ebay.

So new parts are as follows: Timing Chain Stator Flywheel Exhaust shims Valve stem seals (06) YZ 250f Exhaust Cam Piston Rings Piston clips Gaskets throughout Tires (Artrax) Front and rear sprocket and chain (Primary Drive) Case saver too. and more

Ok here is the video on how to change valves or valve stem seals without ANY special tools. Top ends on bikes shouldn't be as intimidating as most people make them out to be. [video=youtube;OtQeZ_xvMX8] Sorry it's a long video, but it's a lot of material to go through.

Working on stuff falls far below doing stuff ;) you know that.

15 minutes between putting my kids to sleep and dinner is about all I get these days. These days I want fewer and nicer things.

I've never been terribly pleased with the condition of the fenders on this bike, they have white streaks and looked bad. I wanted to buy new plastics, but there are no aftermarket plastics for the ttr125, and OEM plastics are crazy expensive. I put in some time with progressively finer steel...

Glenwood Canyon in a vette would be fun unless there was any weather at all.

It was so awesome. I should have competed in the Vet class. The tough truck competition was amazing. Those dang samurais...

Luke and I did around 15 miles of Bountiful with his son. It was pretty cool to see him try some hard stuff on his 65. It's definitely a challenge to ride with kids, but also really cool. We're doing another Bountiful ride with Peligroso on Tuesday.

I wanted to add a helmet light but didn't want to spend $150 with Task Racing (Their helmet mount light is 4 LED and 4700lm), so I picked up a 5 LED 5200 lumen headlamp light that has a remote battery. A little time with a dremel and a GoPro mount I got the mount switched and it hooks up to any...

This log is easily as tall as a front tire. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7TcmIxDJ5CI&feature=youtu.be

Cleaned up, painted and installed the aluminum skid plate. Did a quick shakedown ride last night. Bike does really well. Climbs hills well, puts the power down really smooth and linear. Doesn't stall particularly easily (if I remember that it's a 4 stroke and I need to clutch it more and keep...
