Re: 2014 Husqvarna FE350

It just went on Kijiji for $6700 so I will apply an RMDRA discount and reduce the price on here to $6500.

2014 Husqvarna FE350

Well, I went down the 4-stroke rode but I found out that I am a 2-stroke guy. The result is that I have a 2014 Husky FE350 for sale. It has 120 hours. It will come with new stock springs in boxes and slightly more used fat guy springs on the bike. Brakes, tires, chain and sprockets, and fork seals h...

Re: cmrc shale shaker

Hahaha. Loved reading the story Grimlock. I was the guy who helped you through the skeg and had the tools. That race kicked my but hard. Couple bad line choices and a couple of pretty hard falls. By the time I got to the skeg section I had decided that since I wasnt getting any race points I might a...

Re: Help me "choose" please!

You know what, if you have narrowed it down to a new KTM or a new Yamaha there really is no wrong decision. I think it is time to pull the trigger and just get one already :thumbsup: Riding trails is just naturally better than standing in showrooms, no matter what you choose. Besides, my favorite bi...

Re: Help me "choose" please!

There are a few 2t Euro bikes that come with stators powerful enough to run the required lights, don't limit yourself to blue. Thanks for the reply! As I said above, the price tag on the euro bikes are cringe worthy. I am also pretty dead set on buying a new off the showroom floor dirtbike this tim...

Re: Help me "choose" please!

If you are looking at used ones, 2T is the way to go. Nothing against blue, but for a used bush bike I would go Euro. They may cost more up front but they hold their value better, meaning that your cost per season is actually lower. They also come ready for the bush, so you won't have to dump a bunc...

Re: Battery Maintenance

Brent, did you get the Antigravity locally? Have had new Shorai's go DOA twice now. They are warrantying it but for the 570 with no kicker I'm leery now. Also time to fab some light booster cables. Thanks. I got the 8Ah antigravity at Cycleworks. They have a bunch of them. As for boosters, check ou...

Re: Battery Maintenance

Just replaced the battery. Brass, you are right about the voltage. My new Antigravity battery measured 13.6V. When starting the voltage barely changed and when running it slowly climbed to about 14.1V before stopping there. I opted for the more expensive and higher AH battery. I probably would have ...

Re: Battery Maintenance

I think the battery is toast or you are running to many accessories (fan, heated grips, cigarette lighter, tassimo, portable DVD player, curling iron) at the same time. :smirk: Great info and thanks but if you think I'm going to ride without hot coffee, cold beer, wavy hair and a good movie you had...

Re: Battery Maintenance

That's good to know Brass. Guess my battery death isn't atypical. I was thinking maybe I needed the expensive battery, or maybe a kick start kit. I think I am going to get this instead. http://thepowerall.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=304_306_312&product_id=101" onclick="window.open(this....

Re: Battery Maintenance

I just checked the charge system and it seems to be working. Hooked a meter across the battery terminals. 12.6V sitting, 10.5V starting and 14.2V above idle. I reved it a couple times and let it drop back to idle and it pretty much stayed at 14.2V. It actually seemed to start better than it ever has...
