True.  I stay young by playing at the local MX track. Should have dedicated rides for track and trail but don't have the room for both.  So I compromise and keep the raptor, evendors though it looks like a toy compared to the adult sized machines in the group.

Awesome.  Did the Gaspe about 5 or 6 weeks ago out of Rimouski.  1200 miles in 8 days!  Great trip.  Do you happen to have a GPS route or track on which you based your trip?

 

Thanks!

True... but if they were from Pennsylvania it would have been a horse and buggy.  ;) 

You have something against horses ? Other than they don't come with a motor .....

Wow.  Have about 4800km on my ride.  Think it's time I move up there and add a few more digits to the measurement.

Like using km here. Sounds like I rode more.

Nice going on the machine.   Not sure how much they can be ridden before major issues occur.   In my case, this raptor is the first with an odometer.   My first ride had an experience (hour) meter, which I installed.  Sold it with 400 hours and after finding cracks on its second frame.  Think the mx track had something to do with that...

And loosen hardware on steering stems.  Not that I know anything about that... 

Just need to include the enhancements to reduce fuel consumption and go faster.  Think a diet is in order.
