What do you guys think? Will my ATV fall off the truck?

Not trials related, but some of you old timers might remember this... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bY2jvzAWR2k

Do you guys think this would help improve my balancing skills? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sFUcxnvAeMc

A guy walked into a crowded bar, waving his pistol and yelled, "I have a .45 Colt with an eight shot clip and I want to know who's been sleeping with my wife." A voice from the back of the room called out, "You need more ammo".

I need to replace the oil seal behind the countershaft sprocket of my 2010 evo 250. What is the best way to remove it with the least aggravation?

Not sure if this applies to your problem, but, I recently purchased a rear fender and the decals were peeling off too. It turns out they had not been placed correctly and some corners were under stress. To fix it I cleaned up the fender real good, peeled off the decals enough to release the pressure and reapplied them. I used a hair dryer to warm them up before reapplying (made a huge difference)... This worked for me and they are still holding...

The front brake on my 2010 250 evo stopped working after the bike sat for a few months. They worked fine when the bike was parked and now there is little/no pressure. There seems to be no fluid leak. If I pump the lever several times, I get a little pressure and the brake works somewhat for a short time. I'm thinking the problem is at the master cylinder and need a rebuild kit for it. Is this the first thing I should try?

The problem is the heat. I agree that mx gear provides better protection, but if riding in Arizona I would compromise for a cooler option.

I'm currently using the Thor Prime Slice pants. https://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/p/741/43762/Thor-Prime-Slice-Pant-2014?term=thor%20prime You can't beat the price either.

The best trials gear I have come across is Thor Prime line of motocross gear. It's way, way lighter than my old Jitsies. It's the only gear I now wear. "With the evolution of riding reaching new heights, we needed a gear kit that met the demands of today’s new riders. Prime gear is an evolving concept that is built around a very lightweight, breathable chassis to allow complete freedom of motion on the bike. The pant is extremely light and flexible compared with traditional pants and is intended as a "race day" or track pant. That doesn’t mean it’s not durable, it just means its not the best choice for a ride through the pucker brush and tight woods. Up top, Thor’s new Prime Fit jersey takes things to another level with it’s form-fitted sleeves and tailored torso construction resulting in reduced wind flap and interference. Utilizing a unique layered look, Thor has combined the benefits of compression technology while allowing great air circulation around the torso and excellent moisture wicking for those long hot motos. Refined chassis for increased comfort and performance. Stretch polyester-spandex chassis. Large leather inner knee panels. Double and triple stitched for durability. Ratchet style waist closure and adjustable side cinch. Sewn in liner."

A man is sitting in a saloon in Paso Robles, California and was far from home when Barack Obama came on TV. The man looked at the TV and said, "Obama is a horse's ass." Out of nowhere, a local jumps up and punches him in the face, knocking him off his bar stool, then stomps out. The man got back up, rubbed his cheek and ordered another beer. Shortly after, Michelle Obama appears on the TV. The man looked at the TV and said "She is a horse's ass too!" Out of nowhere, another local punches him in the other side of the face, knocking him off his bar stool again. The man gets back up and looks at the bartender, "I take it this is Obama country?" "Nope,” replies the bartender, "Horse country."

I tried everything, but couldn't get the clutch to stop dragging completely. What fixed it for good was switching to the Surflex friction plates. This was on a 2010 250 evo.

It turns out the pistons have a lip in the inside for a slide hammer to grab and pull them out. I got the pistons out and there was nothing in the inside that would prevent them from going back in. I did notice however that they were not being pushed in straight. I believe this was the cause of the problem as the pistons got wedged, probably when I tried to pry open the old pads with a screwdriver. So the next time I'll be very gentle pushing the pistons back in so that they go in straight and don't get wedged. I'm yet to test the brakes on a ride, but they seem fine in the garage.

That wasn't the problem as fluid flowed freely in both directions. I then disconnected the caliper from the hose and still couldn't get the piston to push back in. I'm now trying to get the piston out to check why it's stuck. What's the best method to get the piston out of the caliper ?

I'm trying to install new rear brake pads on my 2010 EVO 250, but can't push the piston back into the calliper to make room for the new pads. I removed the master cylinder cap and loosened the bleeding nipple but still no joy. Any suggestions on what to try next ?

One day a nun was fishing and caught a huge, strange looking fish. A man was walking by and said, "WOW!! What a nice Gauddam Fish!" The sister said, "Sir, you shouldn't use God's name in vain." The man said, "But that's the SPECIES of the fish, a Gauddam Fish." The sister said, "Oh, ok." She took the fish back home and said, "Mother Superior, look at the Gauddam Fish I caught." Shocked, the Mother Superior said, "Sister, you know better than that." The nun said, "That's the species of it, a Gauddam Fish." So the Mother Superior said, "Well, give me the Gauddam Fish and I'll clean it." While she was cleaning the fish, Monsignor walked in and Mother Superior said, "Monsignor, look at the Gauddam Fish that the sister caught." Nearly fainting, Monsignor said, "Mother Superior, you shouldn"t talk like that!" Mother Superior said, "But that's the species of it, a Gauddam Fish." Monsignor said, "Well give me the Gauddam Fish and I'll cook it." That evening at supper there was a new priest at the table, and he said, "Wow, what a nice fish." In reply, the sister said, "Thank-you, I caught the Gauddam Fish." And Mother Superior said, "I cleaned the Gauddam Fish." And Monsignor said, "I cooked the Gauddam Fish." The priest looked around in disbelief, quite shocked, and said... "I LIKE THIS F***ING PLACE ALREADY!"

I think if we are start calling a spade a spade, people will stop complaining. Please don't tell me it is non-stop when it isn't. What am I to do ? Go along with the charade... seriously ?

As it stands today the no-stop rule is a joke, everyone stops. So why continue the no-stop charade ? Either fix it or get rid of it.

Any system that depends on the fairness and consistency of the people enforcing the rules to succeed is inherently doomed from the start. The only fair and consistent system is one that uses a fair and consistent set of rules that can't be interpreted by the people enforcing them.

The clutch of my 2010 evo has always dragged some. While usable, I'm always looking for ways to improve it. I ran into this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvsdbgmTuuM where they use different washers to adjust the clutch feel. Has anyone tried doing that ?

Good one... reminded me of this one: Bill worked in a pickle factory. He had been employed there for a number of years when he came home one day to confess to his wife that he had a terrible compulsion. He had an urge to stick his penis in the pickle slicer. His wife suggested that he should see a therapist to talk about it, but Bill indicated that he'd be too embarrassed. He vowed to overcome the compulsion on his own. One day a few weeks later Bill came home absolutely ashen. His wife could see at once that something was seriously wrong. "What's wrong, Bill?" she asked. "Do you remember that I told you how I had this tremendous urge to put my penis in the pickle slicer?" "Oh, Bill, you didn't." "Yes, I did." "My God, Bill, what happened?" "I got fired." "No, Bill. I mean, what happened with the pickle slicer?" "Oh... she got fired too."

The most common place for coolant to get in the transmission is through the water pump shaft seal. It's an easy fix. That is the first thing I'd try.
