This post is for a 1993 KTM 300 EXC 2-Stroke. I bought this not too long ago and managed to seize the top end not too long after I bought it. I need to send off the cylinder and head to Millenium Technologies, which I will be doing in the near future. They quoted me a repair cost of...

SOLD SOLD SOLD Charlie, enjoy the hell out of this thing, man. :thumbup I'm glad it went to someone who will thrash it, but maintain it. This is my favorite bike in the stable. It's a 1998 KTM 250 EXC with a legit California plate. I bought it from a gentleman in San Diego last year and...

I'm converting my home nanobrewery in Pacifica to electrical power. I have ordered the vast majority of the parts that I will need for the project, which is based on several well-documented builds. I am, however, kind of a moron when it comes to wiring, soldering, and such. My wife would...

I need to buy some of this for someone and can't seem to find someone who sells it. I'm heading from Pacifica to Stonyford today, so if any of you dirty folks knows where I can get some that isn't too far out of my way, please post here and let me know. I'll check the thread periodically...

Just a bit of background: I got a killer deal on a 1993 KTM 300 EXC recently. It was a non-runner due to sitting in a garage for a couple of years, but had been rebuilt not too long before it started sitting. I pulled the gas tank and carb and de-gunked them (there was A LOT of almost...

My buddy and I saw this fine individual on our way back from Hollister today. He seemed a bit bent that I took his pic, but those glorious flames just didn't add enough horsepower to help that sweet ride maintain enough speed to give us any static. :laughing Who the hell would put flames on a...

I was fortunate enough to win two raffle prizes at last weekend's La Ducati Day in La Honda. Unfortunately, I do not have a use for two of the prizes that I won. I figured I would auction them off here, with 100% of the proceeds going to BARF. Prize 1: $150 towards a deposit on a custom...

Folks, I have decided to upgrade my phone, but I don't want to lose my unlimited data plan. I really like the Note 2 (and I don't have the patience to wait until November or so when the Note 3 comes out). If anyone has a Verizon Note 2 in good condition, I would be willing to spend $300-425...

So, the more I get into "adventure" riding, the more I like the idea of small, lightweight, low displacement bikes. I largely blame seavoyage for this, of course. :twofinger I really enjoy the DR250 that I picked up from him, and am looking forward to getting it really well-sorted out for...

Sorry for the late notice. Tomorrow is the first rainy Saturday of the season. I will be out there, slipping and sliding around in memory of my dear friend. If you were a True Grit regular, or one of the people who always meant to make it to one of these rides, please join me in paying...

No sarcasm is implied or inferred. I got a performance award on my moto this morning for 15 over the limit. The CHP officer who cited me was very polite, very professional, and cut me a huge break. He asked me how fast I thought I was going, and I told him I was going about 80 or so. He...

:thumbup Way to join BARF, only to link your youtube channel. No intro. No description. Nothing. :facepalm :spam

It looks like the city is getting a bit more serious about trying to generate some revenue. I got a parking ticket on Monday night on my truck, which is parked on the street directly in front of my house. The code cited is PMC-4-7.1111 - 3 Percent Grade. The officer wrote, "Wheels Not Curbed"...

I went to bed a little late last night and had WAY too much coffee this morning. Consequently, I was dragging ass big time this morning, and had two STRONG cups of coffee before leaving for work. I also had a bit of cream and sugar in the coffee, which is abnormal for me. I crawled onto the...

Well folks, I have sold my Superduke, and no longer need my "go fast" items. I have a nice set of Vanson leathers (1 piece). They have a few scuffs from a low speed crash from the previous owner. They are in very good shape, and have no odd smells, etc. The leathers have been well cared for...

I need a beer. Better yet, I need a few beers. Even better, I need a few beers with some fun biker trash around. What better place than the Lucky 13 in Alameda? Come out, have a pint or three, and enjoy the company of some fun BARFers (and me!). I haven't organized one of these before, so...

Sold! Picked this up from a fellow BARFer recently :wave @ Kingmoochr The bike is an absolute blast to ride, but it a bit tall for my low offroad skill level. I also decided to get something that is plated, and have recently picked up a little XT225. I was hoping to get the wife on the XT...

The front stand is the one with the pin that picks up the bike by the triples. The pin currently installed is for a KTM Superduke, but will likely fit a bunch of other bikes. Worst case, you can buy a pin for your bike for $12-13. Asking $100 for the front stand The rear stand is...

Edit: Price dropped to $6900 - I found a dirt bike that I really want. If the dirtbike sells before the Superduke, I will probably raise the price back up a little bit. Going to put it on Craigslist too (ugh). The time has come to sell my beloved Super Duke. I have owned this bike since it...

Here are a couple of teaser shots, with a link to the thread where people are uploading photos, etc. I hope to process some of my video in the next couple of days, as well. http://advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=782107
