[QUOTE="duncanstives, post: 1418798, member: 110498"] Hey guys. Got my new wheel bearings front and rear in, most of the checks recommended by you guys done (skipped ones that involved taking apart the engine... It seems to be working fine and not worth the risk that I'd actually damage it in the process of taking it apart or attempting to put it back together), new chain, new spark plug etc. Also got some clotz oil (I know some people don't like it but the PO swore by it, said he never had presistent fouling issues and owned 12 bikes... Plus the kawasaki dealer handed it to me when I asked for "good quality two stroke oil"). Went out again this weekend... Took a backpack this time with a full 2 liters of water (a gallon was just to heavy to comfortably ride with along with all the tools I elected to bring). This ride was MUCH less taxing for a number of reasons: I avoided areas with a sea of mud pits that can swallow a bike whole. I got much better at riding and crashed way less. I "only" went 34 miles (though on average I covered more rugged terrain). Here are the pics from the trip... They are a bit on the crappy side because they are from my iPhone 4 since I can't find a regulat camera I'd wanna take on a ride... I am thinking of getting one fo those Gopro HD hero cameras for video and stills.

Only my friend had to haul his vehicle because the trail heads are all within a couple miles of my house so I just ride there.

[IMG]http://a7.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/305086_10150348586475491_742425490_10172819_1415583_n.jpg[/IMG] Waiting.... Again! The trail kept on crossing the creek... I'd stop and wait at each crossing and take of my gear so I could dip my head in the water and cool off. [IMG]http://a4.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/305552_10150348587590491_742425490_10172823_6251464_n.jpg[/IMG] My friend FINALLY arrives. Incidentally this area was awesome... Photos don't really do it justice. [IMG]http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/309899_10150348590380491_742425490_10172840_7717986_n.jpg[/IMG] Eventually that trail kind of petered out and we started to doubt our abilities to tackle the ruts and logs and branches (and spider webs... Ug... THey where EVERYWHERE!) not to mention question if we SHOULD continue in this area. So we regretfully turned back. [/QUOTE]
