Welcome to the site Larry!!
To Post a picture:
http://www.crfsonly.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8471On the handguards, I use the Cycra Probends. I'm sure others will chime in with what they prefer.
On the Skidplate issue, I use the Flatlands racing Skid Plate. Same issue as above.
The reason the metal plates seem louder is that they reflect all the engine noise upward.
The plate itself doesn't rattle, just makes the engine sounds more pronounced.
I actually have issues with my plate rattleing at certain rpms. I am going to get around to fixing that one day!

I live at Area 51. My friend owns it. I'm even there on weekends in the winter working on the equipment. You should go check out Silver Springs race track. It's in your neck of the woods. They have a nighttime supercross track they race on Saturday night under the lights. I always stop at DiSalvo's pizza on my way there. Come ride at Area 51 Wednesday from 5 till dusk. They separate the classes in skill level so don't be worried about getting run over. It will all start in April or May.

hey red rider ,You seem like a nice guy .So Im gonna give you a tip on eating italian food in warsaw .Go to NEW YORK pizza on main .real nice pizza and Italian food .The guy moved up from NYC . he had a place near the world trade center and when the first bomb went of in the basement of the parking garage ,he moved out . any way they know how to make it .
Silver springs racetrack seems nice and its close Ill have to check it out sometime . Your area 51 sounds nice also and I may come for a look some time I wouldnt mind learning on the track ,or improving or you know .
Anyway Ive never been on a track ,I have trails in the woods and around the yard ,but I wouldnt mind learning some technique ,you guys give lessons down to area 51? Sounds nice the way its broken into classes .
Sounds like you have an interesting and enjoyable job.
Where in Batavia is this place ?
Did you ever go to copper ridge trails ? Id like to check that out too .
talk to you later .

O & A are growing on me. I used to hate them. I still like Shredd and Regan better.
Buckets, I'll have to try that pizza joint you are talking about. Corey Kandefer offers motorcross schools. It's for all ages and skill levels. I try to make it to all of them to help him set stuff up. Corey also does private lessons and a kick a$$ bootcamp that is a weekend long. You can get info on the website area51motocross.com . The track is located next to the I-90 between Pembrooke and Batavia exits. The website has directions to get there.

It's be 60 in NJ this weekend, but there's a threat of rain. No biggie for trails but the tracks will be a mess.
