Things to do before I hit the Dunes?
Just getting ready to take the DS on its first dunes run next month to LS, OK and wondering if I need to do anything maint. wise to the quad. I have a Mr HP endcap, rejetted, 14T front sprocket, and will prob be running 22 Sand Stars. I am planning on getting a no toil or KN filter before I go. I will be at the dunes for 3 days straight. Do most of you take a couple filters or at least clean yours everyday? I am also going to repack all the bearings before I go. Anything else you guys can think of? Also anyone still have the ATV connection flags for sale?

Sounds like you ready. I wouldn't recommend cleaning the K&N that often. Dunes generally don't kick up that much dust and besides K&N actually recommends NOT cleaning it too often because it works better with a little dirt. With that said, if you are blasting thru the desert and there is allot of dirt and dust then I would just watch how dirty it gets the first day and make adjustments then.

You may want to trim the tabs/ears off your heel plates. I run 22 haulers which as I'm sure you know have a much shorter paddle than Sand Stars do and the heel guards will kiss the tires occasionally i.e. g-outs etc. I'm going to take the dremel to mine before the next trip.
As far as the air filter goes I've ridden 2 days at Glamis, 1 day at Amargosa, and 2 days at Dumont and the air filter still doesn't need cleaning. You gotta love having something that'll run awesome with an enclosed airbox.
