What's up everyone? Hope all are well, I've missed a lot i see..... Anyway i threw the towel in today and took tomorrow off so i could go play today.  Yes one of the hottest days but screw it, so i wound up throwing the bikes on the trailer and shot up to Lost Trails in PA with my oldest boy.    Great day, we actually sank the bikes today as the mud pits were insanely deep. We had to stand on one foot peg going through the deep sh** to get the tires to grip.  
All the videos you all see watching riders move from one side of the bike or the other or leaning forward or backwards in a mud pit or creek????? It works!!!!!!!! Bikes were fine tg but we pushed the limits with them   

We really mudded the sh** out of that place and went as hard as we could and it was a blast. It was a good day trip and worth the drive. A lot of people were out there riding, i was shocked.  I would have posted pics but i threw the phones in the truck and took off.  I was happy to be away from the phones with work and gone for the day. Definitely need to do this again maybe an overnight trip but to a new spot.  My oldest scares the sh** out of me watching him ride! 😲😲😲😲😲😲😲😲 so I'm looking for a more flat place to ride since he has no fear.   
 

Ok well i will be a little spotty with activity but will definitely be on the forum.  
Good to be back.

Its a cool place to ride but honestly aside from the new mud pits and trails they made i would probably do one or two more trips there before it gets old.   Next place I'm heading out to will be mines and meadows i think.  My oldest boy is bugging me to go there.

Where is that?

They definitely do have a lot more places to ride.  
I am planning on staying there, question  is 1 day or 2 and cabin or tent?? My son os going to say the typical 16 year old "lets camp" thing but I'm more of a shower after a day of playing in the dirt so we will see.
They also have RV sites so i guess we will discuss over the next week or so and make a decision!

I modified it before even using it. The pump that comes with it uses 4 D batteries, but to turn it off and on is the stupid little red button on the box. Plus the base of the pump won't fit in the jug. So I bought a sprayer pump with the lowest flow rate (1.2 gal/min) and turned down the pressure sensor to a low pressure, then added a ball valve inline to the shower head so when you turn off the water, the pump shuts off. Power for the pump comes from the battery mounted on the Jumping Jack using the 2 pin trailer wires.

The tent was designed for a shower bag only so I zip tied a clip to the shower head and just hang it from the hook.

      (Question is at the end if you want to skip my blabbering) I got this unbelievably well taken care of Grizzly 350 in for a carb clean, it belongs to an elderly couple that bought it brand new in '07. Apparently whoever has been doing their oil changes for them never checked the air filter..
      Obviously it got debris in the carb, it would still run but only idle with slight choke. I've taken it apart and cleaned it, have new o rings, gaskets, etc. As far as the mixture screw is concerned, I'm assuming I obviously need to remove the plug. I'm mainly a lawn equipment guy, I've worked on slide carbs in the past but never an unmolested one with the plug still intact. I hate to mess with it as the carb had very little debris but I'm sure the o ring needs to be replaced at minimum. Finally, the question: what's the best way of removing the plug? I DO NOT want to mess up this carb..

      So I decided to pick up a small trailer if I could get one for the right price.  I found this one for a few hundred bucks on Craig’s list.  It is  a galvanized trailer which is exactly what I was looking for. The wood was shot and needed some minor repairs which I could care less about as long as the chassis was good. 
      I striped it down and put a new deck on. I had some vinyl realtree graphics that I had laying around so I added them to the fenders which I think worked out well. Very happy with this little guy.  
      I'm having the iron workers at my jobmake me up a few lightweight side rails that will have a 22 degree bend in them to accommodate the tires that slightly hang over the edge and will incorporate some tie down points as well.

      I pulled out my Big Bear needed to do a few things probably havent been started in a year. Gassed it up charged the battery started right up. I have been using it around the property for this and that. Went to hook up my trailer to pull up to the house while it was idling it quit. Went to start it turned over but wouldnt start. After trying a few more times lost all power. Pulled it up to the house with the John Deere, the first thing i checked was the Universal fit soloenoil from Amazon and it was only a 10 AMP fuse so it does not universally fit the big bear it should be 30 AMP fuse. At the time i remember noticing it but forgot, at the time i had other problems like wiring harness being in a box stuck engine and no spark. when i bought it, yeah i know, thats one ishould have walked away from, but if i go to the trouble of hooking up my trailer and going there, its following me home.
      Thats old news, i still need to check it all out see if it lost spark and see if the starter shorted out it was acting kind of sluggish, i replaced the fuse with the spare 10 amp and blew immediately. I will try a 30 and see what happens.
