Man I wish you would. Bring it on down here. We would love to be taught how it's done.

Throw them rocks. After watching @scott ride- He might just can! Hell he couldn't get enough of the Widowmaker. He wanted to turn around and go back up it. A poor soul s*** wrecked his Yamaha in the first 50 yards.

I just locked the brake and "hammered down". It buried quickly, bad enough that 4-lock wouldn't get it out. It was just for go to see what happens.

I know I cannot wait until April. I propose a day ride in the next few weeks to Dragons Back, Sand Flats, Widowmaker, and Big cave.

I'd come back up to do it but not for just a day. Too far for a day ride. Maybe a weekend trip in this month or Nov.. been talking to my buddy about hunting there and riding for a week. Buy the 7 day hunting permit. I'm definitely coming back when it snows in January or February.

I'm planning on going back to widow maker and dragons back and salt mountain place on the takeover probably that Friday April 27. But I'll probably go back before then.

I just ordered the pipe and I'm going to call and order the bushings tomorrow. How do you get the old bushings out?

Easy to drive out with a hammer and socket. Make sure you get the lube for the bushings

That's what I did. Got the fronts then the rear couldn't keep up ! I'd love to see these places on the takeover. Scott the guide!
