OF course... you're too late to the game. The inlaws are still in the same house where the wife grew up - It's actually West Chazy.

If you go back up that way with the bike - I found a number of marked ATV/Snow machine trails to the west in the area of Lake Ozonia.

Not really.  I live in San Diego now.  I'd be amazed if I ever visit that area of the country again during my lifetime.  It is beautiful country but none of my family lives there anymore so I really don't have any compelling reason to go back there.

I grew up in a little chalet style house right on the lake, near the base of Lyon Mountain (near where the ski lodge used to be).

see, now this is why I don't clean my bikes. The protective layer of dirt waterproofs everything.

You and zooom hold the same theory
- Cleaned out the plugs with contact cleaner and comp air, then stuffed them with enough grease so that it ooozed out of the seams. Some silicone tape will probably go over as well.

How about just cutting out the factory plugs and replace with a weather pac connector like what GM uses (rubber gaskets etc to keep out water)?
