Isn't that the truthWelcome to DBA
I thought it was all about getting together and riding. Bench racing is just the part around the first part.
Too late! lol jk
He took us out for a nice ride. A 42 mile ride if I remember correctly. Also was very helpful when things went south a couple of times. Great rider and member for sure.
My brother thanked him for sure though.Joking again..
he could be serious ... knowing Palmer.
welcome to the forum John!
glad to see we are getting some more 2t riders on here

Hey John, stick around, lot of good people here, especially from around your general area.
Got any pics of that YZ?
Thanks for all the warm welcome guys!!! Hopefully I get to meet some you guys on rides soon!
And this is the picture of the bike when I first got it. She is ALOT dirtier now and the graphics have gone to hell from all my dirt naps lol But I plan on getting her looking like new again soon!

Thats a good looking ride.
You should see him....
I don't remember it looking that good but the YZ is a sexy machine for sure....
Yea you should see me! The bike can't even handle me...or is it that I can't handle the bike
....either or, I LOVE my 2 stroke! And your right Palmer, it didn't look that good on our ride...graphics started ripping cause of my dirt naps so I ripped the tank graphics off and the bike was SUPER DIRTY from my last outing. But I REALLY want to get her back on her feet. First off I need to get the top end done and order some new plastics. Just got to figure our what shop is cheapest to change the top end (Any recommendations), than I will throw the new plastics and graphics on it.
Fixed it for ya!John,
Let me give you a run down of the people that have posted here...
Weathergeek= Very good people, will go the extra mile for you. Love him and his family, very very nice. He is our LPNF guru.
Travace= Another stand up guy, a blast to ride with and very personable. Gotta love him and his family as well. San Diego/Poway..I still need to crash his place, definitely a dual sport area to connect trails. Close to the OW.
James= If it wasn't for this young man (gingersnap)
Josmoloco=Troll, chat master, craigslist poster boy, Troll...don't pay to much attention to him.
Jft67x=Flattrack bro
onedream=Jft67x's gf, and national level GOON who usesalot
PALMER84ONE= ASS, if you haven't noticed.....
PS.
Be sure to see the DBA store and sponsors and pick up some swag, use the links if you purchase merchandise from the sponsors.
Oh look. Another NEW guy. This one stole my name
Dude! Don't pay a shop to work on your bike. Start wrenching on it yourself now, and save alot of money and heart ache. A top end is super easy, and I'm sure everyone here could coach you through it. Hell Bk had a problem starting his RM, and everyone coached him on that untill it..........errrrrrr...........well, that was a bad example, but I'm sure you could do up your YZ, if you've got the money to buy parts. Start up a thread, and we can get a list going of stuff you need, before you tear it down.

That's what I've been trying to tell him. But he said you need special tools that cost a lot of money and its hard and
I want to try it myself. I want to learn.

You need a nice torque wrench which will cost about $100, and I figure a little more and that will cover the top end labor from a shop. And that's guaranteed work. What worries me is I will probably do something wrong and end up having to pay a shop to fix my mistakes anyway
