Dirt Bike Romp!

[SigsRule]

Well there's a brand new set of knobbies on my DR-Z and spring fever is hitting hard. Anybody interested in a dirt bike romp soon?

[7idl]

well yeah!,

I gotta put my bike back together though


(I took the drive and rear apart to clean/service... should be able to do it in an afternoon (I stopped from last year when it got too freaking cold to be out in the garage)

Pulled my XR650 out the other day and it would start with the choke on, but then as soon as the choke went of it dies. Then it won't start at all. Drained all the gas and haven't messed with it in a week. Hope to put some fresh gas in and it will run. I've never had a problem with any of my XR's before.

Sound like you'll probably need to clean your carb and jets.

+1 this sounds like and was the solution when it happened to my DR

So clean your carb, put your drive train back together and let's hope the weather is nice next weekend. It will either be shooting, biking, or both!

Alright put some fresh gas in and it started right up. Gotta LOVE my XR's. Had to adjust the idle and was good to go. Rode it up and down the street a couple times. Sorry to those that don't appreciate a loud four stroke on Xanadu St. I did only make two passes. Wow am I rusty. I remember when I thought I needed more power and was wanting a big bore kit. All I needed was a couple years off instead, and maybe having a kid. Where's the first ride going to be?
Just hit me that I need to register it. I think I can buy it and get a temporary at the Honda by my house.

well, seeing how I messed myself up almost 2 weeks ago on the slopes,... I'm on the mend... and as long as the slopes are open, I'm spending free time there.. then after the slopes are closed, I'll be ready to ride....when I'm not in FL.

Well, I shot at the IDPA match out in Clear Creek yesterday and took my wife to Blackhawk for Mothers Day today. If the weather permits I'd be up for a ride next weekend. In fact, I'm thinking about an after work ride in the Rampart Range this week since I can get away early almost any day.

What kind of riding? dual sport, dirt only or MX?

Ive got a DR650 and a free schedule
