So I nearly died for the last time at this weekends Jday GP at Southwick. My pace has gotten faster and I'm now experiencing/noticing the short comings of the 4CS forks. I'm a solid Novice on any motocross track and can usually keep pace in the woods (except when riding with @Duncan who appears...

Thank you very much!

Count me in

I could be completely wrong, but if Alta et al. was truly done, some one sitting in the proverbial Captain's Chair would take the time to fire up a company laptop, sit down with a snifter of Thomas Tew rum, and pound out a explanation of what happened, explain why the ship when down, and what...

I think it's time to pull the wheels off to check the seals and re-lube the bearings..........

Wrist is sore but fine (previously broke that wrist already), but the fall aggravated a different old elbow injury! I picked up my oldest daughter from karate practice, many years ago, and while she was sitting in the back of the car she decided to "karate kick" my right arm while I had it...

Thank you. I'm buying one. Today's ride reinforced I need a stabilizer and the front shocks built. There was no way I could keep up with @Duncan and his buddy Hugh.

This was a little better than swamp water. And it was pretty damn cold. I was happy that I didn't fall off the bike and into the water like our last ride!

@Duncan called me up to see if I had time to ride today. It was last minute, and neither of us had a full charge on our bikes, but a few hours later (and not exactly fully charged bikes) we met at Pachaug State Forest and headed out for a ride! The weather was nice but with all the heavy rain...

@Duncan and I were discussing this during our ride today. Duncan came up with the figure of $10k per owner as well to create an Alta Owners capital group.

Thank you @Trialsman! Extremely helpful! Which mounting kit did you use for the Alta?

I'm interested in installing this stabilizer. Can you go into more detail on what you machine work you had to do? Without one in my hand it's hard to envision.

Not that this need be said, but it's been a week @Honcho. Any chance of throwing us a bone? Customers and fans, not to mention the Alta employees, are waiting for some (hopefully) good news. Lay it on us, we promise not lose our cool either way.

You should be able to use a latching push button switch. Push once for On, push again for Off.

I picked up a used Honda EM6500. The guy next to me (with a new Honda EU7000) complained about it being too loud. Overnight I use a Honda EU1000 with the Airstream, so I only need the 6500 for AC or charging the Alta. I called the guy out on complaining because by total coincidence we parked...

How loud is that Predator 4000?

Maybe @Duncan will consider joining us, and/or one of his buddies with an Alta. I'll post something on the Adventure Riders Alta thread.

Here's the list as of now: @snydes @Philip @teddyquinn @OneLapper

Yay!

Hahahahaa! I'm with you on this sentiment! I should also say that several guys in my class/moto thought the Alta was cool, asked questions, mentioned it was too bad they shut down, etc. But nothing like the attention it usually draws. The neutral/sympathetic/positive comments were from...
