Went riding today

[sheeblast]

Well went to riding at Big Rock today. Had fun, brought the zilla, scrambler and rm250.

Had fun, first time on a bike there, way to rocky for me on a bike.
Have a couple pictures but first, the talk about the problems.
The scrambler broke the front silencer bracket so the silencer slipped backwards off the header. was able to get it to stay on but need to weld the bracket.
the zilla was running lean, went to change the clip position, couldn't get the carb back on, need a heat gun for the air box boot, it is a tad too short.
and the rm, the rear caliper just fell off its mount, broke the pads and sliding pins, thankfully it happened at the end of the day.

overlook #1

overlook #2

Riding a bike is easy.

looks fun to bad you had all those problems though.

 

[blastapole]

why does that rm sit so low? My 03 cr125 was way higher than that.

 

[sheeblast]

ya it does sit low, not sure why, most likely the shocks.

cool pictures. but that sucks that everything had problems. the zilla looks like it has really small front tires.

just the back are big, it is 20s in front 22s in rear.

are they all that wide stock?

 

[sheeblast]

ya that is the stock a-arms and axle, the rims are not stock they may have given it a little more offset, but they are wide stock.

nice spot. how many people did you ride with

 

[2g00d4u]

All nice machines. Unfortunate problems, but that ride worked out the kinks in those machines, next time will be better.

 

[sheeblast]

just me and my dad went. saw a guy from BHQ there, toolman. not sure how the caliper on the rm broke, the overlook #1 pictures were shot then we headed back to the parking lot, which was around a 1.5 mile trip back. i wonder if a rock bounced up and hit it?

Must of been ridding the he'll out of them. Maybe you just have bad carma

 

[sheeblast]

that broken bracket happened like right when he got out onto the trails (didn't have a problem after we negro rigged it)
the rm250 happened on the last part back, i was going faster then than the rest of the day, finally got comfortable on 2-wheels, i still love 4.
and the zilla thing happened mid day when i tried to richen on the jetting.

 

[mystic mafia]

that zilla looks hella comfy! must ride sweet!

 

[sheeblast]

it is, just needed to let some air out of the back and it would have been smoother. the front end was great for stock, just the rear end like to bounce around too much.

 

[super noober]

those are some purdy pics I:I

 

[yzrider]

my old lt 80 used to have to unhook the airbox from the carb to get the airfilter, and on cold day u couldn;t get that thing back on the carb without a friggin heat gun, that rubber just turns into a biotch when it gets cold

 

[sheeblast]

well here are the pictures of the sh*t
