Everyone on the ride was an Oregon local. Some older Pro guys, some younger rippers, and a helluva good time. Believe it or not there are some guru's up here too!

Finishing up the Baja prep and packing over the next day or so. One item I always take with me is a bit guitar string wire. It's great when you don't have compressed air or carb cleaner on hand to clean out a clogged jet on the side of the trail.

But inevitably I always lose or can't find the bit of wire...... So this year I melted down a bit of old rubberized plastic from a discarded screw driver handle to make a little handle for my wire tool. Hopefully this helps in reducing the chance of losing it, or at least easier to spot in the bottom of my fender tool pouch.

Installed Racetorx chain adjusters, good product so far and easy to install.

Hella tall final gearing, too.

I registered my Oregon sourced Alta EX #006 at the DMV Los Gatos. It took an hour and a half. Staff was pretty good. Competent and patient even. The system is pretty much of a nightmare. Mine was especially complicated with a vehicle inspection and shit.

Duuuuuuuuuude... F you! I hate you....

I dream of poaching trails on an EX in Golden Gate Park and the Presidio with such a bike!

You are a hero Butch!

**Butch** · 01-22-2019, 04:21 PM

You are my hero, dude. You can borrow it any time.

**Butch** · 01-24-2019, 03:32 PM

I one! 006, the Alta EX.

Wait, you can wheelie a ttr125?!?!

I have been trying on my wife's for years. I have to have my ass almost on the rear fender and my legs by the back wheel to get any lift when cracking the throttle.
