Attempted the chutes today, didn't go too well. Broke a valve stem that luckily held enough to finish the trail and get me home, and got wedged badly, had to use a hi lift as a comealong to get out.

Awesome! What kind of maintenance? I spotted oil next to one of the spark plugs and I am going to check it out and should be good to go!

Speaking of maintenance, I finally got the notorious '00 cylinder head crack so I'm in the process of pulling the engine apart. Definitely trying to hit some trails once I get this new heavy duty casting in!
Anyone with experience replacing cylinder heads looking for something to do this weekend?
I believe I can do it, but if someone who has done it can lend a hand or brain, I would totally show my appreciation with beer.
