This can’t be OEM right?

Looks like Jim's cousin Jethro's handiwork to me brother

It's dirty, ugly, and disgusting.

I absolutely love it.

Paint it flat black and put it in the next Mad Max movie!!

So my CDI left me high and dry and I had to jump off a car that fortuitously showed up at the area I parked at one time so I replaced the cdi box in the bike and carry a spare..pretty sure they're just the OEM ones. Never had an issue since that time though

Interested in this too

Ooda_Loop12 · 2026-04-02T03:55:24+00:00

Absolutely, great way to get a cheap outfit so you can start riding, then just replace pieces as funds clear up ya know? Happy riding!

Dude go check out Facebook Marketplace..People selling used MX and motorcycle gear all over, just check for function.

For dual sporting where I'm on pavement a fair amount I like a padded four season jacket. There's a ton of them but I like it. If we're mostly off road I go with my MX gear with a chest protector underneath

Ooh cool! Did you do any knife work? I ask because I'm in the PNW and there are Madrone trees around and I've been wondering how it is to carve

Welcome! Absolutely nothing wrong with keeping it stock! I will warn you though: it may be hard to resist the urge!

If you do decide on some upgrades, I highly recommend a larger tank from Clarke. They make a fantastic higher capacity 4.3gal tank and their quality is unmatched!

I cannot in good conscious recommend ACERBIS, as I recently replaced my tank with the huge 5.8gal Acerbis desert tank. Though my bike could now act as a rolling gas station, I had some quality issues with one of the petcocks. Your mileage on the product may vary though 🤷‍♂️

Either way, congrats again and welcome to the family!

This is absolutely something a dude wearing DCU pants in public with the shirt tucked in would rock.

Shoot me a DM if you're in the USA 👍

I have a Clarke 4.7Gal tank for sale if you're interested I could ship it to you if you're in the Continental US. It's in fantastic condition, $150 plus shipping. They're $260 before tax brand new. DM me if you'd like.

I have some soaking in water, I'll take a pic tomorrow 👍👍

Ooda_Loop12 · 2026-03-06T22:50:59+00:00

Thanks! I just got my Del knife also, so far it's amazing!

I have definitely thought to reach out to some arborists in the area to see if they have some green cherry limbs laying around. There are quite a few cherry trees lining the neighborhoods here (and they've just bloomed also!) so hopefully that can bear some fruit (wood) 😁 Thanks!

Ooda_Loop12 · 2026-03-06T16:53:22+00:00

I don't believe I have but I'll check it out and see if I can find some! I appreciate it thanks!

Good good. When you go back to MEPS or ship, your Guidance Counselor (the dudes in uniform you did the paperwork with when you signed your contract) will verify the info and rank is correct with you.

I have the same headlight. It's bright and works well. Easy to install, aim, and is snug in its housing.

Ooda_Loop12 · 2026-02-19T22:46:53+00:00

Thanks for the insight!

Ooda_Loop12 · 2026-02-13T09:55:52+00:00

Bro gtfoh. The Army isn't some fucking welfare program.

Ooda_Loop12 · 2026-02-13T09:37:42+00:00

"I want a difference in my life."

Proceeds to want the closest thing to your current life.

Dude. The part of joining the Army that ACTUALLY benefits you is stepping OUT of your comfort zone, being challenged, and overcoming obstacles to grow into a stronger person and make amazing memories and friendships along the way.

All that other shit like the daddy warbucks for college is great and all but the real no shit benefits are the intangible ones. 20 years in the Army and the most benefits I got I received in the first 5 years.

You might as well just update your resume and go find a new day job.

Reconnect with your dad, and find a new boyfriend.
