I guess this is why people post NO DUMPING signs.
I see those signs and think "What, so there are places where you're ALLOWED to just dump trash and junk?".
I guess the answer is "yes".

LOVELY. I was nothing but impressed at how you rode that bike down the hill into that field of river rocks, brother. Slicks and all. <3 the dedication.
do you just have boxes of ohlins shocks sitting around?

Yes, I want my blue frame back. You can leave all the "extra" parts attached.

Thanks! I appreciate the props

I do have this vendor I use. You may have heard of them... eBay. For some reason if you look for Ohlins snowmobile shocks they are MUCH cheaper than ones for motorcycles. I've found them as low as $100 each. Of course the springs rates and damping are much different than for most motorcycle applications so you have to adapt your design to match the shocks. I've used them on a few of my DBC builds now.

Just give me one of your black or red frames and I'll chop it up to match the blue one

Rode around the river this weekend and trying to break her in.
Is that the SM? Any plans for a big-bore kit?

I just missed being in that pic. I was parked next to the blue bike. Were you part of the group that arrived just as I was putting my helmet on (group with the white bike?)

She is a DRZ400SM and only has a few hundred miles so probably not a big bore kit now. I would definitely like to get a FCR MX39 carb upgrade.

Took a couple of fairly new-to-the-dirt riders into the hills today. Rode about 50 miles of dirt roads. But first, had a little discussion with the local LEOs about how squeezing through traffic, even without lane splitting, like would be normal in the Bay Area, is not acceptable here in Idaho.
Somewhere up on Boise Ridge Rd.
Where we came back down on the other side of the hill.

Saw this in the north shore of Oahu, near Matsumoto Shave Ice (which remodeled in 2016. Now it looks just like any other tourist shop. I like the old country store look before the remodel much better).
Didn't know there was a street legal 450 Sumo.

Bear Creek Rd. This ghost ship RV's still there. 
Shortly after turning right from Bear Creek on 9, toward Skyline 35.
I was close behind a car looking to pass him when he slammed on the brakes. I was like what's this guy's problem, I braked hard too and then swung left to pass him. As I pulled along side I thought it was deer on the road at first, before realizing the obstacles were fallen tree branches, so I pulled over intended to warn upcoming traffic. The homeowners came out with flashlights, and we pulled the branches off the road. Several cars came to a screeching halt while we did that, despite us waving the flashlights to warn them. One car actually hit a branch. Shortly after we cleared everything a Harley roared past where the branches had been. I'm not sure if he could've seen it and stopped in time.
A little farther down on 9
