Check in here. I'd like to put together a ride for the guys around stl with R's. There isn't a regional forum on these boards so lets use this to get together and plan some ride times.

well, this is awesome. I am glad to know their are so many around the area..I'm sure there are more that will chime in as well. I'd love to setup a trip somewhere sometime. There's a new park just south of st. joe by a bout 10 miles that has a motocross track, as well as an awesome trail system. I think the whole property is around 1500 to 2000 acres. Some of the trails are very challenging, as a matter of fact my cousin won't go back unless all we do is ride the track. Its called Wa****a Mx park

If their some interest lets set up a ride.

sounds great i just got a hi flite seat and a set of 450r shocks, and a new stator and jamoson coil, but when i get it all back to gether i deffinantly would love to go ride this thing ant had it to long, was riding a cr500r for a long time wish i would of keep it and made a hybrid.

[moneypit]

im in troy mo, but ive still not managed to get my bike properly running right, thinking about selling it.....

[snacob14]

whats wrong with it? I did the same thing with another R of mine. I got so tired of working on that thing. If its anything we can help with, let us know

[moneypit]

well heres the deal i bought the quad in pieces, it came with a ct racing 330 kit, with what was suppose to only be a cracked case, but what turned into the start of my nightmare, the piston wasnt broke yet but had 5-6 hairline cracks in it, well i bought a stock bottom end and used the cases and some other parts but the hot rod crank that was in the broken motor and bought a new pistion and sleave from ct, had it all machined and assembled did the break in on the motor, your standard heat cycles etc. but once it came time to tear into the throttle the bike had no mid or upper end power, i bought a kehin air stryker 39mm carb they pre jetted it for my app. and alt. but still same result i switched out main jets bigger and smaller and still no difference in power, motor has 185lbs of compression i believe ill have to do another comp. check its been so long. but the bike starts up with out a problem just doesnt have the mid to upper power, so i dont know if its my jetting on the carb, elec. problem, maybe plug gap?? idk, i had this thing in the same state it sit now for over a year and havent been able to injoy it, and thats why i was thinking of just selling it, that and i spend alot of time and money on my car, but for what these quads go for i would be losing a easy 3-4k...

I rode there for the first time a month ago.. I'll never go back!!!
It's a rough place w lots of rocks. I beat the hell out my R:mad:

[snacob14]

I've only been out there on a bike. I thought it was awesome. They have had a few harescrambles out there. I'd like to at least try it on the R before I rule it out. I've been to st. joe one too many times.

[BERT306]

have you ever been to sutton bluff trails? i've never been but heard its a good time. i agree w the st joes comment, i've been there quite a bit and just don't enjoy it like i use to.

[snacob14]

never been to suttons bluff, I 've heard about it before. I have a new 8 week old baby at home, so any of my trips need to be morning or evening types.

[BERT306]

congrats on the baby!! I have a 11 month old and its a full time job!

[snacob14]

thanks, I am definitely finding that out. But, still have some time for riding. Hopefully we can get her into it when she is able.

[BERT306]

i've been taking my lil girl for rides around the yard since she was 3 months old.. she loves it!!! well she likes the 250ex of my ol ladys, the R kinda scares her still lol

[thegreenone]

1 have a 19 month old baby girl and once they get a little older people are more willing to watch her {they even call and ask which is great } For the longest time it was impossible to do much of anything, but now it ant bad.
