kinda not sure about talking to the owner, that would be you and me. National forest land. they rate the trails there like ski slopes - black (hard) - green (easy) - blue (med.) but terrain changes with eroision and riding so marked slopes 5 yrs. ago can now be more difficult. Ive been riding...

yeah i'm in springfield, we go maybe once a month or so, there is no weather that is too bad (unless a monsoon happens) as far as a good place to ride there is alot of shelf rock and somewhere around 1500 acres (my best guess) you can ride all day and not touch the same trail twice (no joke)...

ps - there are some TT events, very hairy stuff

WALMART specials - carlisle badlands 20" (had for 3 years now nothing but great tires, no joke) fronts are duro i1211 21"

Here is my local spot to ride. Mark Twain National forrest, Chadwick, MO. This was a good time :)

i ride in chadwick in sw missouri a lot. big rocks and beat the hell out of you trails.

so i have a axle that has been bent on the left side by the hub (somewhere) and it causes the left wheel to wobble. however it still rides and tracks straight. what axles are good?[/*:m:mf8crk9s] what axles are crap?[/*:m:mf8crk9s] best durability and cost?[/*:m:mf8crk9s] RMA...

yeah thanks for the input, i said f' it and bought a cam yesterday, we are going riding in this ice storm/snow crap saturday and will pull the engine afterwards. didn't really want to go ape with breaking it down but you can't sell a smoking bike in these parts for squat.

Thanks in advance to anyone who is taking the time to look at this - with that said how do you remove the springs on a valve to replace the oil seal? Do you need to A) remove the cam? B) remove the head? C) somehow remove the lifter? D) use C4 and forget it? I have a spring compressor...

thanks to the board for all the input, i took the "new" motor to chadwick this weekend (until it reached about 99 deg.) and was very impressed with the response from it. lots of good power and is probably the best motor mod for the dough!!!

sombitch, i replaced the piston and had it bored .40 over, now runs like a champ decided to upgrade to doug. .190 and holeshots all around, this was one tough lesson to take!!!

just want to say thanks for all the great input! however i have another question regarding the top end.....can the jug & head be removed without taking the motor off the bike or not? i found a machine shop here in springfield that will do the work for around $40 (o'reillys machine shop) and i...

the way it went down was at Deepwater (no pun intended), it had rained and i didn't have another weekend to ride at the time so i went. Near the end of the day (my day esp.) we had ran along a large pit the sides were stable enough for my buddys rappy to make it ok and i never had a second...

ok this stupid pos isnt going to run....i put gas down the carb from the top and turned it over and smoke came out of the crankcase vent, maybe the compression isnt that good after all

yeah i still cant figure it out, i live on a hill so we'll give it a shot!!!

we have compression! did the finger over spark plug hole trick...it blew off, next is new gas

this actually happened about 2 mos ago..... tried most of the cleaning-drying so far gimme a few days to try a few ideas thanks to the board for the input!

i don't think the fuel was comprimised, as far as a compression check...how could i tell? thinking my volt meter come in handy though.... just not sure where to start

VICTORY! finally got it un-stuck from using a rebar to brace the inner hub while using an air ratchet to break it loose, what a pin in the ass
