Title: Count Down Yet
Post by: GRK on March 01, 2007, 05:04:13 PM: I'd love to go now! I've still got some work to do on the rail. I have 1/2 my back lower cage chopped up. The new exhaust didn't fit :( :wacko: This weather is like a few years back when Hans came for the first time. Hans and I followed a snow plow over the pass. We stopped at a rest stopped at a rest stop and the kids made snow men! When we got to Florence the weather was awesome!!!!!!!!! B) Better bring fire wood I think the evenings will be cool.

You can't go yet you have a trip to Sac first!

Post by: Hansk on March 02, 2007, 10:19:44 PM: We are going to install a new longer clutch arm, hopefully make the clutch pedal a little softer. Also new front wheel bearings and maybe greese the front end. Then just cruise the dunes , no more nose dives for us. Breaking parts is getting old. :blush:

I'm analog man but you guys can post pictures .
