    Handlebar height...

    This was brought up in another thread and I thought it might make for some interesting non-covid discussion. Do you think a lower bar height is an advantage in technical riding? It has helped me up my game in the last few years and I'm an old guy. You can teach an old dog new tricks.

    Chaincase gear wear

    This is the wear on my 3500 km 2017 M8000 lower chain case gear. Any opinions on if this is normal and what the replacement schedule should be? My understanding is this is an aluminum gear. I bought the sled just over a year ago and this is my first look at it. I haven't had a sled with a...

    Do you have any tattoos you regret?

    Looking at some of the women in the Motor Boating thread and I couldn't help but think...I wonder how many of them regret their tattoos. I'm thinking...the older you are when you get your tattoos, the less likely the risk of regret.
