XMR/trailbike or XT/mudbike
Im looking to buy a bike and turn it into the best trail/mud bike that i can and what ive come up with is either buy an 800xmr and buy some good all around tires so I can swap back and forth between mudbogging and trail riding and upgrade the clutches then upgrade the suspension to elka stage 4’s or should i buy an 800 xt install a rad kit, snorkels, clutches, elka stage 4’s and then buy some good all around tires as well as some mudders?
All advice is most welcome

Mettowee off road park, upstate NY
Has anyone taken their Rzr to the Mettowee off road park in Whitehall, NY? There site is pretty cool and allow over night camping. Just trying to get some info before I go. They hold a big"Spring Fling" (tons of YouTube videos) and it looks like a blast!

500 rebuild by ATV newb
First gear is gone on my Foreman. ’07 model with 1200 hours. Engine ran fine other than first gear.
Everything has to come apart to remedy the situation. I have the shop manual, plenty of tools and experience with engines and sequential gearboxes on racecars. No experience on bike engines.
I have the engine out, the cylinder and piston off and the front case cover off.
So far the piston rings are out of limit.
My questions are:
1) What "gotchas" should I look out for.
2) I haven’t spec’d the piston. If the piston is good should I just replace the rings? Should I hone the cylinder?
Any suggestions/recommendations would be appreciated.
Thanks.
