Yesterday's ride on Oahu

[hawaiidirtrider]

This is just part of yesterday's ride. It wasn't long.. only had a couple of hours but it was a beautiful day. I got my fix. I'm lucky I have a buddy who lives close and we can catch a little ride before picking up our kids . We have a small area that we can ride very close to where we live. Really this one trail is beautiful. Short and sweet and just off the road and few know it's there. I'm on my 09 Beta 525 RS. I just got racetech goldvalves up front and it works excellent. I got stiffer springs but still have the valving for enduro/mx for a B rider under 44 yrs old.(I lied I'm 53 lol) with a big gas tank.. It's interesting what questions are asked on the racetech calculator.. gotta partly still read between the lines for what I do but still it's close to what I want. My dealer did the revalve and he gave me some settings he figured would be good . I didn't touch a thing and it works pretty damn close to what I want. I'm encouraged because it works so well and I haven't touched anything yet. When I start logging settings and playing around I figure I can't go wrong. I'll either get a better setting or a great setting the way it is. I have a stiffer spring behind but I'm changing to another longer shaft shock that I have later. I wanted to see the difference with the front shock first.
