    Max tire size on stock tailgate?

    I was running the 285/75/17 toyo open country MT's on AEV wheels on my stock carrier.. and I can say it does not work.. not off roading it but the expansion joints on the highway would bounce the jeep bad and the carrier cracked bad.. These mounts are not made for more than 32's and light 32's...

    Neon mods?

    So far my mods to my neon have been basic and few.. Mounted a bike rail to the a-frame/tongue of the trailer but I'm really wanting to go fullsize on the wheels.

    Craigslist Trailer's-opinions

    just a fyi,, that 416 is the one with surge brakes,, they have a slightly heavier duty frame and the axle they used has the modern sized bearings,, meaning these are the ones that you can swap out hubs.. It should have a big inner and smaller outter bearing similar to what is used on most 3500#...

    The new steel horse... KTM 1.0

    If you can find one cheap,, look for a 12L tank and seat from a 2001ish dukeII they fit nice without being bulky like the 18 or 28L and give you some extra range. And We need some more pics..

    Dual Sport Shopping F800 GS / F650GS / other?

    The 800 has a 33" seat height?? The one I sat on felt higher than the 650 dakar.. but both are lower than my 625 sxc.. But I ride tight trails.. I need ground clearance.. and the BMW has too much doo dads electronic wise for me as an off road bike.. Which is why the little 650cross country BMW...

    Dual Sport Shopping F800 GS / F650GS / other?

    Mainly price,, if your gonna play off road your gonna trash the bike,, its easier to trash a cheaper bike,, at least for a 1st bike too,, and at 5'8" I might be wrong but the seat height of the 650 is lower,, or when I sat on them it felt lower. I was at a dealer that had a new 800 and a older...
