Damn. That thing rocks. Good job cole.

I'm a couple of weeks late with these pics (camera died shortly after arriving, so i only have a few), but here they are. We were there for a midweek trip because of work, but we rode all Wednesday and Thursday morning until it began to get windy. Blew real hard all day, we finally gave up waiting for it and bailed about 3pm. New job meant that this will be the only trip this season, but I am already planning for next season... PS. happy to hear a fellow duner is doing ok because there were other duners there to help. Finger dune before the wind Our camp out by chitter 3 our daughter's first time to D

Pedro, I completely agree with what you did. Im sure his manager would like a copy of this. I would not want this type of azzhat working for me and costing me business. Bad word of mouth is THE worst thing any business could get.

Green Movement. You dont know how to "save" the planet. You can't "save" the planet. You don't even KNOW if the planet needs "saving". Find a new way to get attention, leave the "saving" to scientists who know what they are talking about ( and not looking for their 15 minutes), and leave me and my 2-stroke alone...

I dont reply to most political threads, but this one I have been particularly sensitive about. I used to work at a Hummer dealer and would get crap from "greenies" all the time. They would paintball our Hummers, egg them, and leave nice notes for us. But when I sat and talked to some of these, they didn't know any FACTS. Just like most in the capital, they just say and do what SOUNDS good and makes them SEEM like they care. This jag-off Gore REALLY slaps alot of educated people right in the face with his hipocritical practices. I agree with the Cheese, my truck will probably emit less bad fumes in its lifetime, than 1 cross country trip in a plane. We are supposed to have a government for the people BY the people. Last time I checked, the majority of the poeple were not flying around in private jets and being chauffered around. I understand if a successful business person or even 12cent has the means to do so, but how is an elected official supposed to understand how life is for the MOST of us if they live like the LEAST of us. Sorry, got a little but it's all part of the same elitist attitude that put alot of people in a bad situation.

i havent taken a tape measure to it, but ive read that a good rule of thumb is having enough room to fit two fists between the bed rail and trailer. seems to be about 10 inches

Yeah, I think you are talking about a Commercial A vs. Non-Commercial A. I think you can only get a doubles endorsement with the commercial one, so the driving test has to be taken with a commercial vehicle. Not sure though I just printed the 144 page CA Commercial Driver Handbook, so I have crapper reading for a while There are weight limits on having to have a class A with any trailer regardless of # of axles. In CA i think its 10k# for tag trailers and 15k# for fivers. You're right though, there are some guys that have no business driving a rig... I will keep everyone updated on my findings...

I like the idea! Fuggin easier than calling our friendly local CHP office and asking them...

Before I start going through the DMV website, does anybody already tow doubles in CA? Just wondering about the rules. I know I need to upgrade to a CDL w/doubles endorsement, and about staying under max length. I was wondering if there are rules about the second trailer. Could I flat tow a Jeep behind the fifth wheel? It doesn't look like I'm gonna be able to sell my 5er in this selling atmosphere and Im gonna need more room if I am to upgrade to farm equipment, jeep or rail.

camera died 1/2 way through trip. should have a couple to post tonight.

wind was WAY stronger than 25 mph. at least it felt that way.

Just got back last night. strong wind ALL day yesterday left the dunes really smooth. kinda warm out there during the day, but perfect weather for late afternoon and night rides.

Can you say "repo"?? These guys must have found it and instead of waiting around for somebody with a proper hitch, they popped it while they could. Repo guys are having to do some crazy chit right now with people hiding their toys, cars, etc...

with Tata's, as with anything else, you get what you pay for.

i asked this a while back but i havent got around to actually doing it. there are some wires going into the clutch perch. do I have to do anything with these, other than unplug them when i dump the stock perch for an asv? I dont know if they need to be spliced or kept apart.

Nice! New DDR motto: Go Small or Go Home!!!

saw the other thread already and saved it on my computer. gonna come in handy for wiring up some lights

Im actually a little relieved, i thought i would have to WEAR overalls while doing that method. I got the axle out that exact way. it worked like a charm. no sweat, as long as the wife doesnt slip up and call me something different, im good.

We just had our little girl a little over a year now, and we just got her first atv. Little girls rock! congrats all!

Who's Eric? Presidente, have you been ? This is my first complete tear down of a bike. Other than a couple of things rusted beyond salvation, its been pretty straight forward so far. Yeah, the flanges at the exhaust seem to seal it up ok, but Cole is gonna hook me up with another head anyway. Might mess with some porting. good to have a spare anyway.

killer looking bike.

:dance: <<------ insane fun. I want to buy a second one by next year, but between this site and gd's regatta, the prices out here in so cal have flown through the roof. Last guy i called said something about an Original Pimp already swoopin it up. I have to be faster

Damn that looks like fun. next year im there for sure!!

Are #5 through #8 on the diagram just pressed on? Looks like it.
