Almost forgot, the bar clamp on my spendy phone holder clamp thing decided to let go. Heard a load clink, saw the unit on the ground, could not find the missing bar clamp piece. Every time I ride up there now I’m gonna be looking for that damn part, Lol. What a day. Did enjoy it though.

Needs more oil, Lol

First day out after self imposed 14 day quarantine (not sick, just did a lot of travel recently before quaretining) and put in some miles at my buddies property. Wasn’t feeling too good but went anyway. Was excited to try out my new Nicki Hayden tribute helmet! 5 mins in, this, up to the...

Fun vid of Robbie Maddison's kids on KTM SX-E 5's ripping it up on a killer back yard track. I wish I had some grand kids I could buy these things for and rip around with, Lol.

Yes, he got some things correct, but he also got a number of things incorrect, and made a huge number of assumptions. Which is too bad, the info is out there. It just seemed like a very long winded, and lazy, defense of the KTM by way of comparing it to the Altas. I had to stop watching when he...

Absolutely. And I really appreciate how willing everyone is to take the time to share the knowledge. And how easy going everyone is. Thread jack! Sorry, Lol.

And all this electron business. So many new words. After riding dirt bikes and motorcycles for I don't know how many years I was finally getting a handle on jetting basics and suspension tuning. With the electric bikes I feel like I was left back, then we got a new teacher that is skipping over...

Wow! Super impressed. Great work guys. PLEASE post the links to the vids when you can. And how about charging? How is that done? How long to re-charge to 100%?

I’m trying not to test ride a Sur Ron cause I don’t want to drop the coin on one right now, but holy cow they look like fun. Plus at 6’5” I wouldn’t fit on one too well anyway. What really got me thinking was when I saw the Hawaii guys posting vids on their Light Bees, they are loving them...

It was a bit of an odd encounter, it was during a ride with Redwolf awhile ago. Met the guy on a break, he was all questions, seemed genuinely interested. As I always do, even with strangers, as long as you don’t come across as a complete idiot, and seem genuinely interested, I’ll offer a test...

Had to stop watching after 12 mins, wanted to jab pencils in my ears to make it stop. Which is too bad. The E Free Rides are great bikes. The Altas are great bikes. End of story. Unless you’re suffering from some type of inferiority complex.

Pretty much the exact same response from the many people that I have let try my MXR. With the exception of one guy who had just bought a brand new KTM 300 Tpi, he was not that impressed. When thinking about that guy (that I met on the trails and never saw again), I wonder if he just couldn't...

Short notice, but I thought I would throw it out there in case anyone needs a bike transported down to the Davis, CA (Sacramento) area. I'm leaving Snoqualmie, WA first thing the morning of Monday 3/23, arriving in Davis late afternoon on 3/24. If anyone needs a bike transported down that way...

I bought one of these little kid ring ring ring bells for my MXR. Haven't installed it yet, Lol.

That was great, Lol, thanks for sharing! When are you going to get him out there on your MXR with a full charge? I'm sure he blew some minds with that vid.

And you guys are stuck with me as I love my Alta and its not going anywhere, Lol. At least not for a while. Grip it and rip it! And very interesting conversation guys. Another thing that I don't think people who have not spent any time on an Alta appreciate, or get, is the nature of the ride...

Thanks for all the thoughtful responses guys! I agree with every one of your comments. Sooooo, no one knows any big shots at any of the mfrs? C'mon, don't hold out on me, I know one of you knows someone. 6 degrees of separation, Kevin Bacon, and all that. I know if I can just lobby directly...

I think Honda, KTM, and Yamaha are our best bets for the next mfr to release a full sized, full performance dirt bike, but they haven't yet. Why not? What or whom is holding them hostage on this? Is it some type of petro chemical cabal tin foil old men sitting around smoking cigars and...

I think Honda, KTM, and Yamaha are our best bets for the next mfr to release a full sized, full performance dirt bike. I am wondering if the majors are delaying the release of these bikes as long as they can for fear they will make less money on parts and maintenance? Is their significant push...
