Been waiting to get the "bare minimum" installed before riding OHV trails: handguards, handlebar and grips, adjustable mirror, skid plate, lower pegs and side rack. I also had a welder strengthen the subframe, but that's for whether I put any weight on the tailrack which I haven't installed yet. Right around 39-40 degrees. Lots of rain of late, so lots of puddles and mud. Only about 20 miles of offroad trails and FS roads, but a very fun couple of hours.

I've been coming to this area for about 15 years. I'd say this has happened about half a dozen times. Totally preventable, as I slowed too much, put foot down, slippery! and down! But the side rack and hand guards did what they're designed to do, no damage to bike

Found a new to me road and wanted to take it deep into the woods, but my toes and fingers were getting numb. Only 275 miles on the bike, but I'm hopeful for several camping trips this spring and summer.
