Depends on when your race season ends and begins. I'll be starting mine the middle of November and hopefully finishing up before the first of the year. I don't ride much in late November and December due too the weather and it being hunting season so having a bike down isn't a problem. First race of the year is usually in early January (local Hangover Harescramle, kind of a tradition), plus it gives me a few months to ride before the season gets going in March.

Haha thanks for the replies, yeah that's what I was thinking, is when it gets pretty cold out. But since my season doesn't start until around the beginning of april, but I do want to get some practice in before then, too. So, I didnt know around what month would be good for me to start it and give me a good few weeks to do it. Hey Josh, yeah I'm hoping my engine doesn't blow anytime soon.... haha. I'll PM you either in a few minutes or later letting you know.

Any more suggestions are welcome.


Thanks,
Landon

My engine was just finished last week. I'm going to pick it and my shocks up on Saturday. I'm in the last week of High School Soccer right now, so its perfect timing. I decided I would take a break from riding, to focus on soccer, rebuild my motor, then start riding hard again when soccer was over.
