Default First atv trip

I just had my first atv trip last weekend!! it was pretty sweet! My legs were dying the next day lol It was an 18 mile mountain trail, full of rocks and puddles...bumpy as hell. Does anyone else do riding like this with their ds650??

oh yea buddy 90% of the trails i ride on are like that, adjusting your suspension helps with the fatigue either way your going to be tired by the end of the day.

so much fun riding technical terrain

and also put di-electric grease in your connections and go to canadian tire or w/e and pick up some RTV (think thats what its called) and seal your oil pressure sensor and the ones around your thermostat

new england is nothing but mountainous rocky, muddy, rooty tight trails- we'll cover between 40 - 60 miles easily per ride (6-7 hours) my wrists are usually the only thing sore the following day.

I think i would enjoy a slightly slower pace the first time around so theres no suprises lol

You should always creep threw trails you dont know ,that doesn't mean you need to ride like a bit.ch but definetly be aware and on top of things .before you go real hard threw them, I've experenced barbed wire across trees(some azzholes), cut outs with 80 foot death drops and so much more!


Good you had fun and a good time.
