I'm going to try and make it. as far as campgrounds go some Val Du Lakes seems to be the cheapest if I remember and were not to strict on the rules. We stayed there last year, decent place and they have a bar at the top of the hill. I have heard horror stories about others. Pretty much all of them have a curfue but some are stricter than others as far as lights out and no campfires after 10 or 11 pm. I wouldn't stay at the Jellstone though, more of a family oriented place. A buddy's group almost got kicked out because they were sitting around talking (supposedly not drunk or loud) but they wanted them in bed and lights out.

I agree with Jon. Campgrounds are not for me...

What's the process for being able to ride at silver lake? Is there an out of state pass or something of that nature? If it's anything like the north east they love to take your money for any sort of fun activity....is this a sort of thing I'm going to need to get a tittle for

Thanks!

Need title and insurance

supernutt · « **Reply #23 on:** March 23, 2014, 08:57:18 PM »

I am not aware of any insurance that we need to have. We are supposed to be able to provide proof of ownership if requested to do so and the only way to do that is to carry a copy of the title with you. But I have never had to do that.

Title and all if you get hurt , other than that you will just have to purchase a state park pass which they will sell daily ones and you will need a Michigan Orv sticker to ride as well and a tall flag ( the flags are sold outside the parking lot) so you can park and go get a flag and ride. And you will need a spark arrestor too.

[MENTION=167]Morse250r[/MENTION], johann did you need to provide proof of title when you were in your wreck? This is new news to me. As far as everyday riding goes, no title or insurance needed. Marc [MENTION=124]silverlake250r[/MENTION] was asked for it one time, im not really sure what happened and how he proved it was his, but maybe he can chime in.

SPARK ARRESTOR IS A MUST!!!! Have one prior to coming, because you wont be able to get what you need there(on a normal day). Im trying to snatch up a few sparkeys with the rubber boot connector for extras incase people dont have them.

$26.50 for ORV sticker and State park pass(instate residents) and a flag is $15-25.

[MENTION=85]pinned250r[/MENTION] info on the rubber boot sparky please!

pinned250r · « **Reply #28 on:** March 24, 2014, 11:47:29 AM »

[MENTION=52]sameltoe[/MENTION], Sam this is a sparky http://www.ebay.com/itm/NOS-Cobra-Sparky-Spark-Arrestor-KTM-/360794370162?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item5401053072&vxp=mtr but they obviously come in all sorts of different styles and whatnot. Back when i had my Shee with toomeys, i ran these instead of the spark arrestor inside the silencer. I used a high temp rubber boot with hose clamps to attach to the sparky, and then to the silencer.

Using the boot and hose clamps avoids wrecking your silencer with scratches or permanent instal, some weld on sparkys. There are some sparkeys that you literally just crush and bend to fit your silencer, 1 it looks like shit, and 2 it ruins both parts.

No insurance but I did have to pay because I damaged personal property ie truck. They never checked my vin or anything. I don't remember much got taken out in a dnr truck
