That must be a serious white-knuckler...
A buddy of mine is into vintage motocross. Looks like a great time.
I was wondering if you were going to get hit. The ‘atmospheric river’ that was forecast never came, just some rain. Supposed to be more rain early next week but nothing like they predicted.
Just rain at the house. Not much wind thankfully. We just hired a new guy, so it's not just me this year. My brother is driving up from the bay area for the holiday. Hopefully the Siskiyou stays clear.
Ooooh, a Pacer!
Niiiiiice. Yep, time to back up for sure. Snow all around makes for gorgeous riding as long as it’s not on the road. Snowmelt in the spring on shady corners can be a real concern though.
Ride link!
I ended up turning around at 2,500 feet and about five miles from the viewpoint. Perhaps try again in the spring.

Not me, too slick. Here’s my most recent roadblock trying to go over the mountain.
If you have Heli-bars, finding a spacer is no longer an easy thing to do, as you need .75" and most spacers are 1"
1" is too tall when combined with Heli'bars, the bars will contact the inner windshield, and the hydraulic lines and wiring harnesses will be too short.
You can sucessfully do this with 4 round spacers vs a whole plate too.
Just be aware as you search, and I will look too.
You might find the superbike bar conversion to be more the way to go...
@sixpack577 @SSGT_B @c10 and many others had them on their bikes and swear by them....
My Dad made me four 1.5" risers out of stainless steel for my Gen2(Gen1 works the same) then cut them down to .75" when I added the Heli-bars.
This is what they looked like.

Yeah, this is the best way to go.
I had them on my Gen2, and now have them on my '03 Gsxr1k.
It's just a top-clamp swap with longer clutch and brake lines, the wiring harnesses reach fine.
It's an easy install, and you can install multiple bar bends, just like a dirtbike.

And that is why I didnt use the spacer I have with Helibars wehn I ran those. I have the 1" As for the Superbike bars, those are the way to go.
!!!!!DO NOT USE THE COMPANY I WENT WITH!!!!!
I used an ABM top clamp on both bikes, and bought both from Spiegler in Ohio.
