Hi all,
Been riding for 15 years and new to the VitalMX Forum... unfortunately had recently lost my 2018 Husqvarna FE350 dual sport up in the wilderness after an incident... I'm looking to get a new bike for the new year to start a fresh build, and curious on what the best options would be for someone who lives in California and is looking for a green sticker, LOL. I'm in the Santa Clarita area and Gorman cops are nasty aholes.
5'8.5" @ 140lbs and thin build. I do a lot of hardcore enduro, trails, and large gapped jumps. Just don't want another street legal, as I spent nasty $$$ turning it into a race bike.
TIA! - Jordyn

The Shop
I heard there were a couple bikes that got “LOST” up there and there was a reward to retrieve them ?
I’m in Santa Clarita, lots of riding out the back door. But even more a little north.
That looks like a Swedish Barbecue gone wrong!
I lost it up in the los pinos wilderness. Heat soak ruined the battery, and was fucked from there.
5% on cell phone, so I SOS'd after I couldn't walk anymore. Probably walked 6 miles in MX boots, ouch. Gave coordinates and was rescued by a helicopter and a 7 man search and rescue team that hiked 25 miles to me. Slept on the ground in mid 20 degree weather for 6 hours until I saw the flicker of lights on the mountains at 3am.
Turns out the maps at camp were wrong... but since I was in survival mode with no food or water left, I started to just follow the river. Was more traumatizing than it seems. Especially since I was with some pretty bad company and he just blamed me for everything anyways. As if i could control a dead battery on a bike.
Pit Row
I was so dehydrated that when I arrived in the emergency unit, I had 5 bags of IV fluids. lmao! Needless to say I will never try to accomplish that double black diamond trail again... unless it was a minimum pack of 5 riders. haha
Best mods/bang for your buck for a 2 stroke are RK-TEK head https://2strokeheads.com/ and Rekluse
