Alright so I finally took the 310 for a good ride today. It was pretty fun and I learned some more about the bike. First off, I think it needs 1 or 2 teeth added to the rear to help it out in 3rd more (to help pull the low end on the hills). Suspension still isn't very good. Also that the little black shrouds break a lot. I've already replaced it once before and I broke it off again today!!!
Tires that come stock on the bike were not that great today. Several people reported that they felt like they were riding on ice when they rode my bike today (their were 10 of us most of them are A class guys that ride GNCC). I will be switching to an MX51 in the front and a trials tire in the rear. Been hearing great things about them. So for the ride report...it was exciting to say the least. Some parts were tough, but over all it wasn't to terribly tough (mind you that I am not an A class rider, I am more of a C class guy). However, some parts were tough. A guys always seem to find tough stuff to ride. IT was going good until I blew out the front tire in some rocks (it was nothing but rocks and mud really). I asked how long till we got back to the truck (cause its pretty tough to ride on a blown front tire) and they said at least 45 minutes. So we started heading back. I was going up a rocky hill climb in 4th gear about 3/4 throttle tring to keep the front end light (so it didn't try to understeer from no air pressure), and hit some bigger rocks and went for a tumble. Bent the bars, tweaked the handguards, turned my bars in the bar mounts, ripped my plastic outta place, bent the aluminum tabs for the seat (on the sub frame), ripped off the black shroud, and blew out my rear tire also. Also drove my face into a pile of rocks. Messed myself up pretty good. Hit my shoulder and my head on the ground and than drove my chin into the ground (that hurt, it bled for awhile and took all the skin and hair off when I hit the ground). Also gave me a pretty good head ache. Worst part? Still had another 20 minutes until we would be back to the truck 
Sucked it up and put my head down and limped it the rest of the way back. Ooo and we went through some knee deep water and big rocks on the way back, that was actually pretty cool. But the day was good other than the crashing part. Those guys told me the cycle goes a little like this; crash, clean, fix, ride, repeat... and that sounds about right. Over all though, I enjoyed the day. Met great people, and learned some more about the bike.
