I guess I missed where you switched from foam. What material did you use?

Any help in driving I value as I'm learning

I would like it noted that I'm not commenting with my "nasty, immature sense of humor"!

One thing I'll say is to run in 4wd on anything slick at speeds even gravel. The machine is very short wheelbase and tall which is more likely to get sideways. Running 4wd helps to pull the machine around.

Should everyone carry a spare tire? Is everyone going to same tire size for front and rear?

Opinions will very soon on this. Personally I do not think a spare is needed. We've been doing this a long time and many different vehicles. We have had many flats and there hasn't been one we haven't been able to fix with a good tire kit with glue and a small air compressor. Takes up little room. I've had three flats on the last 1000 alone one in sidewall still running.
With a spare you have to carry that a lug wrench and a jack and it's still a good idea to carry the rest. IMO and we're always riding amongst "pokie things"
I will be running a better tire with 8-ply soon to lower the chances of occurrences

There's no measure of how much I actually refrain from saying.. so sadly that's not an option, as that's what I'd been doing since we talked some time back!

You're doing great! I wish you didn't have to hold everything back but maybe like an alcoholic they can't have just one drink now and again

It will all work out little brother. I'm looking forward to seeing your build on the new 1000.
