The four stroke engine: That's one stroke for producing power and three for wearing the engine out.

Getting ready for my next desert ride.... Building a new front wheel.

Nearly everyone I ride with has a quad.
I'm one of the few bike hold outs.
Anyway, they always go on a night desert ride.
Having no lights I have to sit back at camp and have some Reposado 1800.
While having some Reposado at night, in the desert, while sitting around the camp fire, has it's own merits, I'd much rather be riding.
The last time I had a bike set up for desert night riding, was 5 years ago.
It was a XR650R set up like this:



My plan was to ride my KX during the day and ride the XR at night.
I never got to the night ride.

The next evening, I did get to watch my buddies ride my bike at night while I sat around the camp fire drinking Reposado  :lol:
