007banshee Posted August 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Ok cool, my parents live in Holly and I'm always down there,many trails down there? Working on my bike now, frames getting powder coated soon then I can start piecing it together. We will have to get a Michigan ride organized for the spring !

toytech Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 (edited) how are the atv trails in kalkaska? the saint helen trails and ogemaw trails are fun! we ride the dunes 4 or 5 times a year, kind of a pain in the a to get a big group together, the way things work there. I;ve never rode the U.P. how are the trails around gwinn, are there many? It would be fun to get a big group together to trail ride some where north, there are several guys around our area that would proly be in for a group camp and ride.

gwinnraptor Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Trails around me are good, but can get dusty. I can ride from my house north about 40 miles or so on the main trail, lots of little trails that branch off, a few sand pits. I can also take off from my house and ride about 30-40 miles south to Arnold, maybe a bit further but i havent ever went further. Down south of me there is alot of hard woods and hard pack trails. The trails that are to the north (from gwinn to marquette) are majority sandy. This is a pic of the trails near Marquette, sandy, wide open, but can get a bit dusty. (yes thats a monster truck in the trail, i ran into him this spring while riding the rhino) Im up for anything, never done a group ride before, but not opposed to it. Been riding most of my life, just sort of new to the banshee scene. This is a pic just heading south of Gwinn last fall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fastassbanshee96 Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 I'm down for a group ride. I live in Roseville just north of Detroit but always ride out there, Atlanta, St,Helen, bull gap in Mio..... We are always looking for other people to ride with. Haven't been to the dunes yet cause I can never get people to go but can't wait to get out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

007banshee Posted August 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2012 What kind of parts do you need? Spindles, thumb throttle, front brake master, stock head. clutch and flywheel cover. I basically have everything else. Trying to work out a crank issue with Nieskis right now, sent me a crank with a bent rod. Hope we can work it out and I won't be out $115.

Well I'm at work right now but when I get home I'm pretty sure I have a few of those parts. If you pay the shipping cost I'll send them out. Anything to help out a fellow hqer.
