went for a ride with my brothers and some buddies on sunday. do not have the ride pics yet as they where on a secure camera i cannot unload at home. total damage was to xt350, wr250x and 350 warior quad. quad lost wheel in creek 1/4 mi from truck. xt got dropped twice, once by me on a round rock hill and damage time on exh side trying to climb sand hill. the wr was the more spectacular one. kirkswim was driving it home and hit a battery box lid on the road in a corner with the front wheel. could not save it and he ended up on the sholder of the road with the bike down in the ditch.
here is a couple of pics of the damage.
xt
and that is it. all other damage was there before.
wrx
sad part is i ordered the frame sliders sat am.
quad has to wait untill buddy gets me the pics from his camera.
injuries for the day, wacked left knee and wrenched ankle (me) , road rash in 4 places hyperextended thumb and swolen left anke (kirkswim), and wrenched back from lifting buried big bear pro (cory).
still had a great day.

nope nope. Gotta 05 sxventure 700(same motor as my viper) as the spare. Put a 2001 srx motor in the viper, and I should have the viper motor back together by then with spare carbs, chaincase, track....
should be good to go as brother cory is looking at building a sxr700 144" as a main sled and use the 500 as backup.

acually no. it is a gravelpit they used to make a road to an old abannodoned mine bc (behind chelmsford). there used to be bridges to get back there with 2wd pu but they pulled them out. you can make it if you are careful with a 2wd but the creeks you have to cross are over the front bumper on a stock 4x4 s10 in the shallow spots.
i have seen a guy do that hill with a grizzly 660 and a yfz450. it is possible with a wr250f and any 125cc 2 smoker. just never seen it done with one yet. have heard of it though.
you are thinking of the wall in ethiers/fishers pit out by the airport. never been there yet. still having fune where we go.
