Removed 50 or 60 feet or brittle, burned wiring and installed over 300 feet new wire. The only accessory I added was deck lighting. This video shows the first power up after everything is connected and neatly tucked away.

    Almost the double in size of a olympic hill. In 1994 in Lillehammer they set a new hill record 135,5 meter, and the hill record in Copper Peak is 158 meters. So, no its not almost double in size. And the record in the small hill in the olympics in 1994 was 104 meters. The hill looks like a difficult hill to jump in, you dont seem to get much heigt, sy you really must work.

    Wow! Thank you so much for posting this video! I had seen vvmapping before but I didn't really understand what it was or how to use it. Like you said, cell phone coverage (especially here in northern Michigan) is spotty so I couldn't get much use out of the apps that I was trying to use. They have really opened up a lot of roads for ORV use here in northern Michigan which allows you to travel from one ORV route to another, or to town to get gas or food. Knowing what roads are open right there on the GPS is fantastic! Even when we are riding just the ORV route, it's very easy to miss a turn and get off track, so it would be nice to have the GPS. I just ordered a Garmin Drive 52 for $99 and the SD card from vvmapping for $40, so it is a much cheaper option than other GPS that I was looking at. Thanks again for sharing this information, I can't wait to try it out!

    So, how did the roller fairlead work out, with the strap, over the long-term? I just replaced my steel wire cable with a 10,000 lb strap (keeping the same roller fairlead, but polishing the rollers smooth for the nylon fabric) because I was tired of repairing the winch cable. Just tried it out and seems to work fine so far, other than the strap sometimes gets off to the side of the fairlead, which looks like it might chew up the edges and wear that out prematurely.

    My bike will only rev up with the chokes on, it won’t rev with them off. It just goes blahhhhhhhttt and dies. The plugs have always been very sooty and black, which tells me it’s too rich. Since the Mikuni starter circuit is different from a standard choke, is it giving me more air to the mixture while it’s on and throttle opened? Which is why it can then rev with the choke on? With the throttle closed, it will barely idle with the starter circuit on. Been chasing down the tuning with these carbs for weeks. Air screw is almost falling out to achieve a rise in rpms; I have smaller pilot jets on the way. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Honda 400cc with Mikuni VM 32’s.
