Just got back from a weekend ride on the Hatfield McCoy Trails. Three of us rode the Little Coal River section and covered about 60 miles. Some sections were very muddy but the weather was beautiful. I wasn't sure about keeping the Kenda Bear Claws on the 250R that I recently picked up, but they were exactly the right tire for the wide range of conditions faced on this ride. Not one mechanical issue the whole trip. I was the only trike and I didn't see another one all weekend. Yamaha had a demo ride set up at the trail head and we got to try several of their new quads out on the trails. Overall, a great trip.

Definitely did. I spent a lot of time waiting at the next fork for them to catch up. One of the coolest things about owning a trike is that everyone else thinks its great...but no one wants to ride it.

I pulled the old 110 out today. I was prepping it for a little scouting mission I'm going on tomorrow. Fired 'er up, took 'er for a spin, then found a fuel leak around the seam of the float bowl. I pulled the carb off to fix it and in the process I figured out the carb spacer between the carb and intake was on upside-down. Oops! I've always had an issue with trying to git 'er to idle right, just figured it was the Supertrapp and maybe the jetting being a little off. So I put it back together right this time, put some nice synthetic 15w40 Torco in 'er and she's all better!

Took the trimoto on a six hour ride in Monticello today and manged to roll it over twice and bent the handle bars also broke the rear plastic and got it stuck in the mud about five times, but overall I had a good ride.

mahackney, how did ya find the trike on gas over your whole run that day?

[lookinforone]

I bought a blem asv clutch lever and mount for cheap from asvinventions on ebay for my tecate. The mount fits the stock perch, but the lever won't. However I am in the middle of remedying that with an air grinder.. We'll see how it works out. Turns out it works really well. The asv clutch lever feels awesome. It fits your hand perfectly. I lost the bid at $10.50 for the F3 brake lever in blue.

Work on the cagiva today as I have a 2 week deadline starting 6/1/09 to get it a roller (Raffa). This one is a tough one.... much more work than I thought and I NOW remember why it was moved to the back of the shop and I did "other" things. When I bought it it was in mostly in pieces. The seller also collected ALL kinds of cagiva mx parts and I got them handed to me in boxes as well. Like putting together a puzzle I never took apart in the first place. But Raffa i'm on my way!!!!!!

mahackney, how did ya find the trike on gas over your whole run that day?

The 250R used 2.5 tanks of gas during the outing. My 08 Z400 and a Polaris 4x4 used a little more than 1 tank, but I rode the R like I was on the last day of Baja 1000 and the other guys just cruised.
