Rick wanted me to setup a poll for headcount so he can try to work a group rate at the KOA. Please vote !

Location is Glamis North KOA near the South end of the Salton Sea, http://www.glamisnorthkoa.com/

Date is April 20-22nd. I will be there before and after those dates as well as a couple of others.

I'm really going to try to make it. As far as I can tell, its only 125 miles from where we are? Just hope wife feels up to moving up there. & maybe they have kiddie trails for wimpy old Quig? :D Don't care for sand. My weight, plus trooper = sink!!

I’m still in the maybe side of things & have voted that way. There is more for me to sort out first to make it happen. Firstly, I need confirmed dates and then I can start climbing into it. Jane, my wife is keen and as we still have plenty of time on our side before we commit, we will wait and see what develops.

Cheers Mike.

well maybe I can make it out , would be intrested in riding with more guys with troopers and seeing the mods. I could tent camp if the wife will allow me to go riding without her and the kids

yes that would work.they do have a tent area but maybe we can slip you into our area since the sites are so large.I see your not too far from me, im in yorba linda and so is bruhaw.

Last Jamboree I rolled over the greatest distance traveled prize money. Now it appears Lenny is going to beat me out this year. The last 3 Jamborees I have traveled the greatest miles, this year only 388 miles. So Lenny, are you going to forgo the prize money to attract someone else to attend? I do think there has to be a minim miles traveled since the location is so close to a metropolitan area. Rick & his Beach Buddies have it too easy, a few hour pull. Heck my fuel alone is going to cost around $350. So I think there should be a 250 mile minim. What ya think or have I ticked everyone off?

Lenny, do you remember how much the prize money is? You and I put it up and I think it was $20 apiece. I will add another $10 this year (the economy is worst this year) for a total of a $30 contribution to attract someone with a long haul.

I'll match your contribution and If I get it, I'll roll it into next year for someone else.

Yikes, I threw the idea out to my wife about me going but she seemed like she wanted to go . I decided to check out the cabin rates I think it was $279 for the weekend. WOW I checked the Koa in pomona across the fairgrounds since its a stones throw from my work awhile back and it was $60 a night for a cabin.

I will throw in $20 this year.

Rocmoc,

Yes you did tick someone off.Its Rick and his Beach "Bunnies" not buddies....(LOL)

Rocmoc,

So here is the way Isee the totals. First my wife Jeanne reminded me that I offered $25 per year for the3 last 2 years or $50 total. Rockmoc had offered $15 for each of the last 2 years or $30 total. These amounts have been rolled over to this year.

So this year it is at:

Lenny $50 plus another $25 for this year or $75.

Rocmoc $30 plus another $10 for this year or $40

Ricksrb $20 for this year.

Total for longest distance traveled = $135

No excuses for the farther away guys not comming. (Kinarfi?)

If this is incorrect, please correct.

Isn't Pomona nearly 2 hours away in the LA basin?

rocmoc n AZ

yeah, I was just sayin that I looked up the koa in Pomona since it was 1/4 mile from my work I thought it would be something different to go to for a night or 2 with the kids ,they could swim and play when I wnet to work.

Anyway I was shocked at the diff in the price between the 2 places

A little math from kinarfi, assume gas will be about $3.50, $135/3.50=39 gallon and at 9 mpg (actually Less) that's 350 miles and it's 716 mile to North Glamis, one way, That $135 would get me a 1/4 of the way there, which would definitely help, but what worries me more than the fuel bill is the dependability of my rig. But then who knows, every thing is subject to change, so no promises, to be or not to be - there - . :)

Yeah, well it’s looking more and more unlikely that I wont be able to make it, so the cash is yours if you do Jeff. My problem is Jane my wife can only get one week off when we thought she could have two. It’s way, way, way to far to come just for one week. We could do it but it would mean one day flying each way and only five days to enjoy. We went to the Cook Islands a few months back for seven days and that was not enough time. Rarotonga Island in the Cooks is only 30 kms round, how big is the West Coast of the USA? I want time to enjoy, relax and Tiki Tour (sight see).

Never say never so I’m not ruling it out, but it’s not a sure thing anymore.

Cheers Mike.

OK, Brostar isn't coming, Jamboree is cancelled.

LOL, ONLY KIDDING. There will be others in the future for you to make it to. Would have been nice but life's needs seems to get in the way of our fun plans sometime.

That's not what he said, he said " it’s looking more and more unlikely that I wont be able to make it" ..

I love double negatives and that's a double negative which is a positive. I used to tell my wife, when dating, that I won't do nothing, and did something, so, unlikely won't equals likely will.

Sorry for picking on your English Brostar, just wish that's what you were really saying.

      I have a 2020 axis 500 and I have replaced the TPS twice and the whole throttle body assembly once and still have code 122. I can barely drive the thing. It bucks and surges like crazy
    • By Hunterman22
      2021 Hisun Axis 500 UTV (From Lowes)
      Will NOT START
      MY apologies if this is to much info just wanted to give yal the most information possible for help.
      I'm a so called diyer. An Electrician by trade 21yrs. I got my S×S from my last job. The contractor purchased this S×S for this specific job brand new, from Lowes. They used it for hauling materials, tools, & a little bit of anything you can think of on an Industrial type job site. 
      I remember getting on the SxS one time & pushed the gas petal all the way to the floor & SxS had very little power. 
      So anyway ,when the job finished up back mid July this year (7/2024) , I asked the contractor what they was going to do with it. I was told to take it. Otherwise it would go to the contractors yard (storage yard) & most likely rust away. 
      Took it home washed it , it had a heavy coat of dust on it & in it dust was every where. My helper & I had to push it on the trailer to get it home.  After washing it throughly I let it sit & dry out for a good day and half, maybe 2 days. Before trying to start it. NO START. Will turn over & try to start but thats it. 
      So here's what I've purchased & installed. New Air Filter, new spark plug, new air idle control valve (AICV), new throttle position sensor, new throttle body, new oxygen sensor, new digital dash speedometer/fuel gauge/clock. 
      Also drained the old oil & gas & replaced with new oil & 93oct. gas. I should probably mention that I've changed the AICV twice. The 1st time I changed the AICV I was able to get the SxS started & let idle for at least 10-15min. Drove out of the garage, with very little power,  turned it around & barely got it back in the garage.That was the one & only time I've been able to start the SxS. I've also cleaned the Throttle Body and & intake with TB cleaner.  So after that the AICV was  making weird noise so I pulled it out & tried cleaning it, pretty sure I messed it up. So I purchased a Throttle Body that came with new AICV & TPS. Still NO START.  I've checked the fuel pump & the fuel injector.  I took the injector off still hooked up to wiring & turned the key over, the injector sprayed a lot of gas out kinda the size of a volleyball. I've also checked the clearance gap on the intake & exhaust valve. But today 11/2/2024 I'm going recheck spark plug gap & the valve gaps. And alot of other checking. Would the driver side seat belt have anything to do with it not starting?? I know the driver side seat belt has to be in gauged for full throttle "going fast". Thing is the drv. side seat belt will latch but feels like might be messed up inside of it. Tired opening it up but to no avail.  I've never had a S×S or 4wheeler so I was really excited when I got the S×S,not so much anymore.  I work on & fix my own vehicles usually no problems.  But this SxS is kicking my ass.
      So if possible & someone could help me with some ideas or tell me what Im doing wrong or did wrong, I would greatly appreciate it.  Thank you for reading thus far.

      Hello everyone.
      I recently bought a Can-Am Ryker and I'm looking to customize it with some accessories. I’ve seen a lot of options out there but wanted to get some recommendations from fellow riders.
      What are the must-have accessories for comfort, style, or performance?
      Specifically, I'm considering a windshield and better footpegs—are these worth the investment?
      Also, any thoughts on storage solutions like saddlebags or rear cases?
      Would love to hear your personal experiences with any mods you’ve done.
