    What are you riding?

    i've got an HMF pipe on my 400ex (slipon) and it sounds great. sparky, when you rejetted your z400, did you drill out the plug to access and adjust the pilot screw? if so what did you use to plug it back up?

    Strengthening trailer

    i don't know anything about it. the axles are 5 lug, so probably 3500lb? it has 4-ply radial tires (2,000lb) shitty tires on it, so i don't think the guy loaded it very much or very often. so box around the perimeter? cool, that gives me a good start. my John Deere 990 MFWD w/loader +...

    Chaning the oil, 08 Honda Rincon

    they say not to use oil that has friction modifiers (polydenum, teflon, ect) in quads/bikes that have wetclutches, but i always have and never a problem. i run my toys hard too. ymmv, but probably not. i've got a couple bikes and no problems.

    Tips and Tricks

    never use ratchet straps for recovery. they become a 2lb bullet when (not if) they snap. plenty of dummies at the dunes don't understand that. when tugging in reverse, pop the hood. i usually carry a pair of carhart coveralls in the truck for work but they do a good job when thrown over...

    Got Bagged Today

    funny, i just installed AirLift bags on mine a couple days ago. love 'em! what kind of PSI do you guys run around town with? i've got all the stuff to add on-board compressor and tank and a panel that shows PSI in both bags with the ability to fill and purge each one individually. i'll...

    Pyro/Boost or Pyro/Boost/Fuel Press. on A-Pillar

    i would go with an oil temperature gauge if it was my choice. but then again i don't have any plans on making huge HP. monitoring oil could be useful for towing.

    Scangauge?

    i'm on my second tank also and it still seems optimistic with the MPG readings. is yours reading high or low? is it close when estimating how much you put it when you fill up? DieselA, right?
