[QUOTE="woodsy, post: 843024, member: 27856"] HI MM: Sorry but I am not familiar with that area at all so I cannt help you out with the "old grade" your looking for... Maybe I can help with understanding our Michigan ORV laws though.. Is your 650 street legal?? If so, the laws that govern it are TOTALLY different then stock (trail only).. On an unlicensed (no plates and insurance) the only "legal" areas in lower Mi are those "posted open" - there are rules for this too - ORV sticker, helmet, spark arrestor.. To qualify for this "open" status - the trail you are on must be posted with the familiar orange triangles.. There are lots of riding areas that qualify for this status but, to be honest with you, most of them are not the type of trail that you have mentioned (running WOT on a 650)... The DNR has gotten pretty sticky about non-legal bikes/quads/dune buggys/6 wheelers and ATC's (no plates and insurance) even wandering down forest two-tracks that you will cross when following these legally posted ORV trails.. Although I EAT - DREAM - LOVE our Michigan single track, I have personally found that riding powerlines, two tracks, forest roads and even an occasional section of highway on my "street legal" KX500 is a BLAST too - this is now called Duel Sporting (funny, but throughout the years I always called it riding :eek: ) At any rate, I hope this all helps in your endeavor to enjoy your scoot and the great outdoors... Oh yea, there is one one place in lower Michigan that you can ride your 650 FAST - Silver Lake Sand Dunes.. Dunes are power robbers and there is NOTHING like a big bore bike out there - last time I took Kadie (my scoot) there we won LOTS of races on the drag strip, RIPPED up the hills and even passed a couple buggies at 85 plus on the rear wheel :p Fun to do at least once....
