what size rims you running ash GPQZ?? Last time out at Sibb 8" rims 18" tyres rear and 10" rim 20" tyre fronts. But have now lowered front on shock mounts to make it sit better and fitted 21" tyres, with 10" rims all round and 20" rear tyres. It's the engine sump that is the snag as it sticks 1" below frame tubes. It's really more suited to flat tracks as the weight is not well distributed for the muddy/lumpy stuff - too much on front end really.

Bark track was ideal but.......

You know when you really wished you hadn't started something Just trying to work it out around a couple of other things m8, might even ride there and back, only 64 miles each way Pork and Apple sounds superb.

Will your quad even make it to Sibby is more the question - seem to remembr last time you came yer bike was, er, rather poorly most of the day Then you get another one and promptly fall off it and have to abandon the bent and broken remains for weeks somewhere in the Scottish hills
