Back in the house we go lol. Finally got around to enclosing off the front porch again. Getting cold out and we have a lot to do. This worked great for PJ a couple years ago, so Clutch has got a new home in between rides to get some work done.

Will be staying in the van for a bit. Actually feel bad because it’s been such an awesome rig and gotten no love or maintenance, just hasn’t needed any. Have never even checked anything over but I will and at least get some light at it. Love that little machine.

Yamaha builds some great machines, had some YZ's , IT Enduro and a 1978 750 triple, drive shaft w/ faring and saddle bags, friend of mine had a Honda Supper Sport 750 completely stock, we would line them up and drag race, I would pull him off the line and every gear the distance grew. Then came the twistsies, I would run off and hid from him and let him go by and catch and pass him. It was a really ugly bike though!

Thank you. We feel the same. She’s got less damage then the first day it rolled into the trails. We won’t be any easier on it but need to do better at replacing things if they get torn up, especially the cage. We’ve always been if it runs it drives, will get better.

Woke up from a nap on the couch last night, walked into the porch and found my daughter making some improvements on the enclosed section.
She said she’s excited that Clutch is in the house and wants to help. She’s helped before a but both my boys are busy on their own projects so it’s her and I on this one! She’s going to learn a lot as I’m not really in a hurry this time. We’re going to drag in the boxes of goods and pick what we want. She will be able to pick some stuff out, figure what needs to be bought and help design. It’s always been a family thing, I didn’t build something for myself and now It’s her turn!
After helping on Clutch we will build up the Wolverine the way she wants it. Really excited to see what she comes up with for her machine:)

Not all women are down and mine was one of those originally. She was scared of dirt bikes quads snowmobiles anything off road. She hated guns and being cold in the woods. Tried hard to make it about her and the kids and made things as comfortable as possible. She started seeing all of us have fun and got jealous. One day she hoped on my big dirt bike and was gone an hour, I was scared to death but she came back with big grin, and got her new bike for her birthday 2weeks later. Most women want to be a part of things and have input, that’s the easy part.
Amazing how much has changed in 15 years now, Ang is tough as hell now I’m proud of her. I haven’t since gone anywhere without her, if I’m riding with the guys so is she same with my daughter and the boys when they can. Been a long road to involve the family but worth it. We always say a family that rides together stays together, it’s worked for us because we’ve came through some s***

Got the new deck a little while ago but been too busy to pull it out of the box. Finally opened it tonight and am very happy so far. Build quality is awesome. Very robust and the plugs are the best I’ve seen. Tolerances and everything seems to smoke the Infinity deck it’s replacing, of course it’s much newer. Very pleased!
Can’t wait to start getting this thing going. Been really bummed lately with all the damn side work been doing. Working 70hr weeks hasn’t allowed anything fun. Soon.
