Who's still riding? (Fall & Winter 2020 Edition)
- Thread starter PrivatePilot
- Start date
Bike doesn't need a lot of maintenance.. oil changes ever 12,000 km
Still have to get to NWT, Yukon and Alaska. Most likely next year l, small chance for this year.

I typically go through 4 rear tires and 3 or 4 front tires ever season. The way I have been maintaining my chains (until my current bike) has allowed my chains to last over 80,000 km so a new chain roougly every year and a half. Front and rear pads when I need them. Not really a ton of stuff but I do make notes in a spreadsheet when I do stuff.
..Tom
Surely you have to adjust valves?
Usually I get them done once in the first 30,000 km and check again somewhere around 80 to 100,000 km. They generally dont move after the first check.

Yes, it's called blackfly season and for about 2 or 3 weeks you won't be able to stand it outside no matter what you are doing. It's horrible.
lol I think I need to go put on a full coverage helmet and take the KTM out for a lake ride before it gets too dark,

lol That would be stupid fast on the lake but you would never be able to ride it back off my lake afterwards, the hills are too steep and snow is still too deep. Most of the lake surface snow melted and turned to ice, there's better then 18 inches of ice here now.
Lake riding is a lot of fun for about 20 minutes, not a lot of exercise though, you just kind of sit there on the saddle, point and shoot, Way more fun if you use the lake to get a good run at a steep part of the shoreline, that's pretty cool and something you can't do in the summer season

Rode for a few hours today.
Felt good.
The Forks were empty when I came through. Nothing open when I came by. Played in the dirt for a bit. Grader went down Fallbrook Trail near Glen Williams. Lots of ice ontop of the dirt under the trees. Slid out once. Started playing with the slide on the freshly graded dirt, then the slide continued on the ice... dropped at 5k or so... **** happens.

@Trials might be onto something with his fairing talk.
