I wonder if I can steal a RZR and make it???
Yes but they wil be seen on UTVWeekly first. I'll let you know ASAP.
Well I finished the build at Marshall MotoArt, put the RZR on my truck and drove it to Long Beach CA to put it on the boat to Jakarta.
Wow I've been busy.
Marshall MotoArt is building a new cage with an integrated front and rear bumper that will
have 2" receivers up high for the winch to move front and back. Large roof rack and maybe
perma doors.
Working on Seats, winch stuff, dual battery setup, beadlocks, 8 ply tires, chassis stiffener, upper shock supports, lights, radio.
Taking spare fuel pump, hub, not sure about spare axle, spare studs, oversize studs, spare tie rod and ends, filters, oils etc.
Did a deal in the desert with Badley so he has my stock cage.
Had to get my passport renewed, international drivers license, deal with shipping the rig which is a whole new experience.
Looks like I be sleaping in a Kamprite Tent Cot, off the ground at least.
Thinking about a dual sport helmet like the Aria. Suppose to rain and I think I'll need to keep the
rain off my face or feel like I'm in a chinese water torture after a few days.
WOW! That is going to be one heck of a trip! I look forward to reading about the trip when you get back. How many do you have onboard already?
I'm not sure. People from all over the planet coming. The organizer is in the Netherlands. 30 rigs max is what I heard.
I am the only UTV so far.
You will see this in plenty of TV and magazine coverage.
I'm really hoping to be able to blog via satellite and send photos each day.
Still working on that.
We start the build up this weekend. The S is getting a bit of an overhaul.
Yeah I won't make the Nov Moab trip. The S will be in a can headed for Jakarta.
Guys,
I am going on an expedition 1500 miles across Borneo December 6-20.
4x4s, ATVs, MC's wlecome.
There is room for more of us. Only about 30 rigs total will be allowed.
I am shipping a cargo container with my RZR around Nov 1. from Utah.
We can get a larger contain and split the costs if you want to go.
Basically it will cost you $2K to enter, $1K for airfare, about $6K to ship
your rig. Sleeping in the Jungle most of the trip and you'll supply your food and tent etc. This is real Jungle expedition stuff.
Chance of a lifetime and going fast.
If you seriously think there is a chance you would go PM me and I'll give you more info.
I wrote an article about this on UTVWeekly.

If you missed the UTV Jam in Marysvale Utah in August here are some snipits.
UTVJam.com if you want to join us next year.
It really was a quality event. Lots of Vendors, perfect venue, boatloads of giveaways.
Here is the article I wrote for UTVWeekly.

I like the idea of a separate power switch.
Makes for an instant "mute" when you need to talk to your passenger.
But this one will be pink right Ramone?
If you missed the UTV Jamboree in Marysvale here is a short article I wrote for UTVweekly with quite a few pictures.

UTV Offroad Magazine should have an article in a month or two as well.
For all you folks who can't make we will be broadcasting much of the event LIVE on the web Aug 12pm - Aug 15pm.
All you have to do is go to XXXoffroad.com and there is a live streaming video running in the middle of the front page. You can pop the video out and sit it on your desktop separate from the browser if you want.
There will be a few different camera angles of the main event area and our RZR is equipped to broadcast on the go so a at least a few rides will be live from the trail.
If you go to the web page and it looks like its playing a recording it is, during times when we are not live it plays pre-recorded material.
It switches automatically if we ride into an area where signal coverage is bad. When the signal returns the video switch back to live automatically.
If you subscribe to XXXoffroad on twitter.com I will be adding tweets as we ride and giving notice of whats next.
Anybody get pictures of the moron in the Parade?
