Hello,
I was wondering if there are any dirt riders out there with experience that would be willing to exchange a few emails and maybe help me out with a few questions? I'm rather new to dirt riding and it would be a huge favor to me if someone could set me straight on a few matters.

Or maybe someone knows of a local dirt bike message board?

Thanks in advance for your help,
Darren

Should we ask theSteveCo for a "Dirt Bike Corner" on BARF? What do you guys think?

Dirt Bike Forum would be good.
That way I can get my motocross racing friend into BARF more often... He seems to think we aren't very dirt friendly:(

Talking about dirt, this is the plate on my street legal YZ ;)

You can read it as "DIRT YAM" or "DIRTY AM". Both are true :teeth :angel

I posted in the website topic asking if there could be a topic for dirt bikes (no response yet).

Thank you all for your help. I will check out those links.
I knew there had to be some local messageboard similar to BARF but for dirt.

Calvin, you'll have to get your own dirt bike, DrZ sold his KX and I sold my YZ... We only have one dirt bike each! :( ;)

Nope, I'll ride the pumpkin... :teeth :laughing

Tips to avoid looping the KX: remove the new spark plug, put a shitty one. Restrict the hell out of the exhaust. Stuff an old T-shirt in the airbox. Limit the throttle travel to 10%. Pee in the gas tank. Kit it in the nuts :kicknuts
:laughing :laughing :laughing

The easiest thing with two strokes is to stay in one gear higher than what you would normally be in.
