Having visited here several times, you are well familiar with the elevations in East Idaho.

The U.S. Delphi EFI does an excellent job at all altitudes. This bike makes good power for a 250cc engine.

Another displaced washingtonian checking in. Grew up in Kent, Everett, Lynnwood area. Went to the great UW as well. Have property up in Concrete, where the North Cascade HWY goes right through. Sadly, never rode that area as I started motrocycling much later in life.

Can't complain though, it's high 70's here in So Cal.

Concrete is a beautiful location, one of the all time bad names though... I've been to the airport there a couple times.

SoCal is wonderful. Best weather on Earth.

Only mid 60s here today but no state income tax LOL

It only reached a high of 52 degrees here, and this was the warmest day in over a week.

After this weekend the high temperatures will drop even lower.

That's where the amazing Rasar State Park is. Mrs. Weldangrind and I love that area.

If you ever get up here with your RX-3 kumatae definitely let us know. I suspect a ride/meet up with Weldangrind wouldnt be out of the realm of possibility, and between the RX-3 owners I've talked to locally I think an 8 man RX-3 ride sometime this spring or summer wouldnt be impossible either.

As long as you fine people would accept me on a non-RX3.
