Just letting off a little steam...

He took my son's 99 KX 250 for a spin... He couldn't believe the difference in the two bikes. I gave him a list of mods we've made, and offered to help him make with any and all mods to his bike. I also told him I would help him jet it correctly only after he's run three tanks of premix at the proper ratio, which for him I recomended 50:1. He is not an agressive rider, and I think the bike intimidates him a little. After we get the bike it set up properly, we'll work on twisting the throttle a little more.
The next thing he needs to do into log onto this site... Many thanks to all those who have answered my questions.

gwcrim we when Sunday afternoon, it was a spur of the moment thing. I did think about ya, but not until Monday. I found a private track that both my sone and I were drooling over. I'm trying to find the owner to ask permission to use it. We were at the WV / PA line past Bethany College.
We will definately be back there again. I will give you a shout when we "plan" to go riding there next time. 8-)

50:1? That's too tight for my butt! I run 32:1, mainly because it's easy for me to figger out.
There's a guy down around Wheeling that invites us down now and then. He built a track on his property though I haven't ridden it in it's current configuration. I'm not much of an MX guy. I prefer dodging trees. Sometimes we ride woods down there too.
Maybe sometime we can hit up Yellow Creek - Wellsville. It's maybe 20 miles north of the bridge. Lots and lots of woods there.

I don't know if your familiar with the area behind Bethany College. It was formally the German Beer Gardens. Its a place everyone (including my son) takes their 4x4's to play in the mud. There are many trails, lots and lots of mud... Most people on quads, many on bikes watching the jeeps, and trucks play in the mud. Its good clean fun...

I have a pal supposedly coming to town for a ride this Saturday. Care to make some plans? gwcrim at yahoo.com
