I Discovered a Hidden PINE FOREST In the Middle of the MOJAVE Desert (& the XR650L has CDI Issues..)

In the least likely place ever, I rode up to a small forest in the middle of a vast desert! On top of that, the CDI on this XR650L is potentially broken.. For this video, I was invited to an Adventure Riding Motorcycle Rally over in Mesquite, Nevada and I borrowed an XR650L to do some exploring with. Of the various routes in the area, I chose to do the one that appeared to reach the highest elevation I could get to. Over the course of the ride I'll go from dry desert terrain all the way up above 8,000 feet to a small patch of forest where theres even flowing water! Just goes to show you that you can still find water in the middle of the desert. Then, on another note- all throughout the entire ride, I was experiencing a high RPM sputter on the XR650L. I know this bike fairly well and I have never experienced that. Initially I thought it was a carb issue, but I am not concerned that the CDI unit may be going bad. This could make total sense considering that the CDI is one of the weakest components on the XR650L and it is known for having issues.. If anyone who watches this video has experienced this, please let me know! Hope you guys enjoy the vid!
