A day in the sand

Went to the northern section of the Oregon Dunes outside of Florence. I took a few pics with my phone.

went to start it and nothing, popped the seat and found this. The only thing we didn't bring was wire ends lol. I just held it on the battery to start it. We were both burnt out so good time to call it a day.

Looks like a blast man, wish we had dunes around here.

I'll tell you the deep dry sand sure does suck the power out your machine. but the wet stuff you can just get up and fly

Ya I do know that. I got to play on a sand pile 2 years ago on "Red Headed Step Child" right after I put the piston in. If I hit it at a good rate of speed, I was crawling by the time I hit the top.

Elwood, guys will pay more for those Fox Shox on your bros bike than the bike it's self. :evilface: I vintage race up at Woodland. :tup: I got rid of my 12C-A flooded battery and am running the PTX14ah-bs sealed battery. Cold Cranking Amps is higher on the 14.

I know what the shocks cost and they came with the bike lol. I've talked to Thor Lawson about them a few times on the formula for the air pressure and I've seen what they sell for on vintage forums
