NEW BIKE!! It's offical!!! I FINALLY got a NEW (to me) BIKE!
After many many many nights spent on KSL and many other internet sights and after much help and advice I finally can say I'm part of the off road bike owner Gang! I spent so much time looking and testing riding bikes my wife finally just told me to buy a bike and get it over with...Well I did....sort of. Instead of buying one bike I bought two!! :ne_nau::crazycobasa: Well I bought one and found a killer deal on another so I decided to by two. My reasoning was that I could see which one I liked better and then sell the other one. :crazy::nono:
So the two bike's I now own are a 2008 KX450F and 2005 CRF450R (new SS valves).
At first I was dead set on a CR500 and that is all i was looking at. I test drove some and loved the power, but the cheapest I could find one that was indecent shape was 2k and I didn't want to have to pay that much for bike that at minimum was 10yrs. old. So then I started looking at KX500's. I rode one and they just seemed so big that I rulled them out. Then I rode some two stroke 250's and I really liked them and was going to buy one. I was dead set against the 4t's because i had heard that there was more maintance and more cost to buy and repair:ne_nau:. So how did I go from being dead set against a 4t and then buying one? Well, I never test road one and so i decided that before I buy a bike I should a least ride one. Well, I rode one and the thing that I liked most was the smoth power delivery. Still I didn't know if wanted all the precieved maintance. Long story short I just wanted to get a bike and found what I thougt were some great deals so I bought them.
I don't have pic's now but will post them later tonight.
The big question now is, where can I ride them this saturday? I've got the Ich and need to get out. I live in Davis county and I think that the closest place to ride them is 5 mile? Is that still rideable?:ne_nau: If anyone knows of a place to ride and wants to show a guy that has been out of dirt bikes for 10 yrs. some trails that would be great! I was going to go with Redfox saturday but he can't make it now. So let me know if you can go or if you know of somewhere better to go than 5 mile.
Can't wait to ride!
