Should have some on Saturday. My Church is sponsoring a Ride For Life as a fundraising event for the cancer research charity Relay For Life. We hope to have a good turnout. It will be a great time. I'm hoping pumpkin can make it on his Lifan C-Moto. He can wake some people up, if he brings that bike a does the ride. We've gone further on rides before. This would be an easy ride for the Lifan.
I'll post some shots next weekend, if it's ok?

Sam i'll be there hopefully i'll be able to bring my camara.
by the way can't wait to see the klr.
She's finally finished. I have a slight issue with the new LED turnsignals. That should be fixed soon.

Dude she's really pretty! Would like to hear how she sounds after the modifications.

Carl,
If you want to hear how it sounds, it's gonna cost you a plane ticket. China is far from WV and I don't have any trips planned just now. Seriously, I'm not that computer savy. The bike is not loud but it's slightly louder that stock. The Big Gun exhaust has the baffle and USFS screen installed. I'm using a KLX Needle with the clip at postion #4 and the stock KLR 145 Main jet. The only real mod was the drilled slide in the carb. The jetting seems to be spot on. I'm pulling the plug on Friday.

It just may happen there bub. Don't be surprised if I land in your neck of the woods in the not so distant future. :wink::thumbup:

I got the wheels fixed yesterday. The front tubeless wheel failed and I had to put tubes in them. The company that built the wheels refunded my money, so it's all good. I'm bummed that the sealing system didn't work but those are the breaks, I guess. I can feel the difference with the tubes in but hey, it's a dualsport not a sportbike. I probably wouldn't have gone with the same size wheels and tires if I knew the seals were going to fail. I may send them back next Winter and have all that sealing crap taken out of them.
It's raining like crazy here but I've been riding everyday. Gore-Tex is a wonderful fabric. My Teknic Monsoon ridng gear is great. I also highly recommend Belstall gloves. They're the best. I'll be out on the bike today finishing up some errands and testing things out. So far everything seems good on the bike. The new shifter fits nicely, same with the footpegs and new handlebars. Much nicer than the stock parts. Overall, I am very pleased with how the bike turned out. I have a lot more in the works for it. PIAA fog lights, sliders for the crashbars, Pelican cases for the SW-Motech rear racks, and maybe a new front fender and black bodywork. The Red is nice but I like to be different.
Take care!

You know I was just telling Supersignet the other day that if I had your bike I'd go black with it. Would look sleeker in black I think!
