Easy peazy. Front fender will be nice for those stream crossings. 🙂

I actually ditched the front fenders.  I like the look better without😎😎😎😎😎😎😎. My was broke and they were both rattling off, mostly due to loose front axles👎👎👎👎👎.

I found the gremlin in mine…. it would intermittently not start and or die.  The connector on the wire to the points was loose, and it would rotate around until it touched the points base and ground out!!!  Audrey’s was her gas tank.  Petcock was clogged like it was full of super fine coffee grounds..  some put a crappy liner in the tank because of surface rust.  It was coming off.   So I paint stripped the inside of the tank CRL clean till it was peeing clear!!!  Soaked the Petcock till it was clean and added fuel filters to both bikes👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🏍🏍🏍🏍🏍.  Ready to trail ride!!!!

i wonder if I should buy a jet kit for 12000 foot??  Or if I can just drop the needle down??

Drop the needle, you’ll be fine.

sweet. Thanks…  I was hoping that would be the answer.  I’m hoping these stock bikes with little cc’s and tiny carbs with super low gears is gonna power me to the top where blue water is!!!   I’m excited to ride the bikes!

Bikes fucking rocked!!!!!!!!   I didn’t change shit, they ran like tops!!  Yeah, they won’t idle at 12,000 foot… but they still kick ass!!!!

I had a blast… didn’t ride nearly as much I wanted too, but I did climb Kendall mountain twice!!!  The bikes performed perfectly!!!!

I’m ready to do some dirt biking!!!!  and the Rugged radios were awesome!  It’s so cool to be able to communicate!!!

Those little Honda’s are amazing. Still kicking ass after nearly 50 years!

Saw this at a yard sale last weekend. The price was a little high, and I didn’t really need it…but a picture is good. Judging by the bike, this can’t be much newer than the 1940’s

I heard 60 degree’s today!!  I’m gonna take my two wheeler out for a short ride!!!!!!

Need to find some good Bomber style goggles!! and maybe a skull cap…8-) 😎

I’m going to put more miles on my bike this year!  I need to wear the tires out and replace them.. I built that rig in 2008..  and haven’t done much with it since.  I would bet this bike still has less than 2500 miles on it..  and thats 15 years… wow…thats disappointing….8-)

one day I’m gonna try and do a long trip on this bike…. You know like to Moab or something 😎😎😎😎😎👍🏻😎👍🏻

Monument loop is always a good choice. Somewhat slow going, but can’t beat the scenery. Then there’s Gateway. Everything else I can think of in GJ area requires too much freeway.
