RollingJ, I am glad you were there filming!
Cheated? Nah, it was a riot!!! Right next to my bucket list I have a list of events in my life that I'll never forget... I wouldn't trade last weekend for the world!For the most part I had fun although I felt a little cheated.

I agree 100%. It didn't go like we planned but all in all I had a good time. The ride back to Livingston in the pouring rain with 18 wheelers going by us was a little unnerving but that's all part of what we do I guess, enduring and overcoming adversity. Then talking about here for a while until we do it all again the next time.
First shot at posting video. This is one of the Northern Bunch dancing with his KLR. Pretty impressive saves.

Still kicking. Left a note for y'all at Livingston SP office and putted on home with a couple of stops to clean off the love bugs.... BTW, where's garfey? He hit the slab Sat morning and we didn't see him again.
Telling lies with you guys Friday evening & Saturday morning was a kick
I figured it was time to clean the bike up, change the air filter, change the oils, and check the valves for good measure.
I found one exhaust valve loose (wierd, valves normally get tight) so I needed to pull the cam carrier to get at the shim-under-bucket valves on the CRF. The first thing to do is to release the cam chain tensioner.
Anybody want to take a guess why my bike sounded like a box of rocks?
Yep, the tensioner was kaput. No spring pressure what-so-ever.
I'm rather amazed I didn't skip a couple teeth on the cam gear and chew up my head on the few occasions on the second day I hit 93mph.
That would have been UGLY!
I had a great time and for once, the Berg did everything I asked her to do!
