Anyone want to name this trailside tool and how to use it?
I can't believe nobody got this gimme. You see, the knucklehead you bought your bike from thought he "fixed" the starter button by reversing the back plate. While this did in fact prevent the switch from moving, it also introduces a large as* hole for all sorts of things to enter your non-potted switch.
In my case, who knew that a single flower pedal could snorkel through the gapping hole.
Yes, a.single.pedal can apparently prevent one of three major things from occurring on an internal combustion engine. And how exciting a bike that won't turn over could be in the middle of a 100 mile stretch of desert.
If you were an old MOPAR dude, you would just whip out your screw driver, and dead short the starter relay. As this is the closest point to the battery, it is an excellent place to start chasing the electron flow...that is before you find that.single.pedal. You did remember the cardinal rule, that everything you pack has two purposes right?
I want to give a big shout out to the only Powersport dealer in town.
Even though it turned out to be an easy peasy fix, it was comforting to noodle through the issue with another brain. Certainly, made fast work of the issue.
On a side note, he also does recovery services. He said on a normal year he rescues 10-12 Big Adventure bikes from Bunny hill Apparently, we are heading out that way. This year, he has done over 30! I was wondering if the Utah BDR might be the reason so many more big bikes?
No really Blaster, that first step is going to hurt..
Since we bury the rest of the bodies here, let's name it!
The trees are already getting some fall color. Nice accents against the Aspens
If you were going to name this road, what is the first word you think? Castle Rock it is
This sign should be Oregon to Oklahoma.
What do you suppose the ground speed of this storm might be? What do you suppose the ground speed of a WR might be?
Great Western Trail
No shortage of rock markers!
Under the interstate we will go
Aspen country
You could be anything, but are you a cow in a sandstone hole up to your hocks grazing?
Caution: what goes up to 11,000 feet,
must also come down
Shaffer trail is more iconic, but this is nifty! Where's Blaster?
