I guess I'll have to be nice to the wife all week and try to get an all day pass for Saturday instead of just an evening pass for the fights.

Funny you should mention the carb mod. I found this mod info when reading some posts about stalling in water.
Here's a good link from klxzone with pictures: Carb Vent Mod

I went out on Saturday to look for the T and had to stop at 3 hardware stores just to get soemthing that would work. Neither Lowes or Home Depot had a T that small. So I went to a local hardware store and the smallest I could fine was a 1/4 inch T, but the tubing is 3/16. The tubing is flexible enough to take the 1/4 inch so I bought a couple of them and will just make it work.

Don't worry about the terrain Deej. There's alot of everything at Reiter. Tony and Scott are good riders, but they're nice and won't get you into too much trouble. If they start to get too aggressive, we'll just go back down to the bottom and you can teach me how to do wheelie's. You will probably need the ibuprofen if you spend much time at Reiter though. It's a workout.

Thanks for the link, I wanted to do this a long time ago, but kind of forgot about it, I am definitely going to stop at the hardware store and see what they have. I printed out the instructions, I see how it works now, by putting in the T the carbs can drain still if they need to, but won't pull water since the open end is up above the carb, Thanks again.

So you want to sleep in huh? LOL, Just let me know where to meet you, and remember I'm from a one stop light town, so if I have to turn more than 4 times, it over. The earlier the better. I would like to park the truck where we will end up so I don't have to get lost again trying to find my way back after the ride.

Hey Tony........Look what I did tonight. I went to the auto parts store and found this cool neon green gas resistant tubing, and I just had to replace it all. I'm good to go man.

Nice...now get some lube on that rusty chain. That's unacceptable.

Looks like we may see some DEEP puddles do to all the flooding.

Forks, Wa. 6 inches of rain yesterday
Seattle, 5.5 inches

I am moving the ride to ADV. We have more freinds coming too. Safety in numbers.

Hey Tony, how come it says you posted here at 9:16 and 9:27, and its only a little after 8:00? Are we still on Daylight Savings Time still?
