Damn. She looks great. I was gonna brag about changing TTX fork seals and oil. But, damn.

I would definitely brag about that!! That is one thing I really don't like working on...

I used S12s for years. Been trying the dunlop AT81 non desert with tubliss at 4psi in a couple HS. So far, i like very much.

Thank you. I love my bike and treat her pretty well. But do love getting her dirty too!!

I have used the S12 before on my old CRF250x. I would have liked to get another VeeRunber Tackee that Melik had on it when I got it. But did not take the time to find one. The S12 is a good tire and holds up rather well. I am told that with the heavy tube they put in I can run it around 12-13 psi which is good for tree roots. I will keep you posted..

I took mine for a ride yestery.. fooded out eveywhere but lots of mud.. she was washed afterwards.

Jobs on the list
Fit 50T rear sprocket to the 2013
Add a little more rear preload to the 2010

Should probably look at pulling the forks and triples on the 2013 and lubing/changing the fluid post break in.

Curious. Do you have the TTX rear shock as well? If so, do you service it on your own? Thanks

Ideally you'd want a vacuum pump setup to fully bleed the TTX Stu. I'm sure with some logic and patience you'd get an ok handbleed done, but its likely easier just to pay someone else. The whole twin chamber design of the TTX shock just gives another area where air can be trapped.

Thanks Jake. I figured you might chime in. I am not due yet for service but will definitely pay to have it done.
