Moto Madness

Moto Maddnes:haha:
Went to take a look at a 08 KTM xc today with high hopes.
Figured if it was a good one I may just have enough left over for a tent trailer for my little pos truck.
First thing that caught my eye was shelf after shelf of moto dirt trophies.

This pos would not even idle after 3 min. with the choke on and I suspect it had never been taken care of. HAMMERED to the GRAVE comes to mind.:facepalm1:
The cam chain sounded as if it would come through the head or sleeve at any second. $3750 my arse.:lol8:

I told him I had drooped the price to sell on both my bikes and I just might have a buyer for the red one:roflol:

Maddness I say simply maddness.

Maddness of motos=
When you start to look for a used bike close to home:

The maddening part is every SOB thinks their ride is golden and then you show up to check them out and everyone seems to be clueless to true value. (well it used to idle ok)
OR I have only rode it three times in the last three years( the last race-yes race was back in Feb. Rhino Rally and he's trying his best to get the mud off today only cause I gave him a call and he knows dam well I'm on my way.WTF PEOPLE???????????

Seems a big part of moto madness is more patience than I have.:lol8:

Maybe it's just me and maybe I should ask the golden price myself but my hell what is up with these crazy basturds?

Screw it all at this rate maybe I'll give Scott a bid on his old BMW!

I'm tried of these igjets.

I know I would not need a fuel pump for some time.
What's up with these crack heads that think a bike that will not idle is worth more than mine that is ripe and ready and will smoke them from start to ?

Forgive me please, I know not all KTM riders are the same but down here I just can't figure out the hole mess. From the mess holes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

UN freakin believeable

I know breath in and breath out LMAO.

FR%$#*&^%*& Jerks

Some trails just get your attention and when the bike likes- I likes.

Something from AZ. high country.

K I don't know about you but the terrain I ride this race looks like something I would love to try.
Fresh, Dark ,Soft and ready to hook up with min. obstructions that I can see.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPOPfCkjfAY&feature=related


Does not really start to pick up till about 7 min mark but enjoy it all.

Moto MAdness is when you just need a fix and can't get to your moto.

That shit will drive you crazy after talking to fools trying to get more than top dollar for the hunk of stuff the deem as a small fortune.

:facepalm1::facepalm1::facepalm1:
I just want to ride a new ride with some simple shit please and not all the horse sh** glamour talk.
Just let me throw a leg over it and I promise after the first or 5th lap I'll let you know.

This is the best one poster thread alive! Now that's moto madness!!

When buying used whatever the seller has to say is of no use. You have to make your own decision. When I hear bought it for my wife ........... I start to laugh.

The other thing that cracks me up is when the ad states original owner never been raced and it has race #'s on every plate.:crazy:

I looked at an 08Rmz450 that only had 5 hrs on it. The problem was, the chain had at least 50 hrs on it! Hell, I beat the piss out of my Wr450 and the guy who bought it got a steal. That's because I re worked everything. Some of us have to sleep at night. :confused:

I'd be in for a white tim trip. I tried to put one of those together last year.

I hear you Garbo.
I took my YZ into the mech. to make sure the top end was tight and right before I dared to put it up on the market.
Besides paper work always helps. Lots of new extra parts don't hurt either.:lol8:

Maybe not moto? maybe just madness:

The only place on my truck it would fit was the roof.
So to the moto garage it went.
On my camping cabinet I built with nice white doors.
It's about 30"x30"


My good friend Butch gave it to me as an early Christmas Present.

@ moabmark -Ya and they're the race specific square stickers with a color back ground. for us one timers.:lol8:

I know for a fact my YZ has been raced once- a works race.
SOmething I really would love to try again. I had a blast.


After that I can only guess right fourtycal?:)

I paid $350 to get it to the doctor and all she needed was one valve shim and she has a clean bill of health and runs clean and very crisp.

Everything in the top end looks good and clean - Within factory specs.
Funny how money sometimes can make you sleep better at night.

Moto Madness= to young again:

Moto Madness= Trying to sale your ride and
When you slap the shit back on your bike that you swear you were going to keep but just can't get past the two week mark and need to ride again.

Madness I say - complete madness.

But I am getting faster at handle bar changes with all the trimmings :)

That YZ has a new 16 year old owner with a grin bigger than the grand canyon.
He is returning back to the track and I wish him the very best of luck with some advise: Ride it for at least one month before putting in the stock fly wheel on and tank and sprockets.
:stud::facepalm1::stud:I sure hope he don't kill himself.:lol8:
His daddy ran the baja 500 in his day for two years and took it for a ride before forking out the doe.
Perma grin from the two.
Perma grin from me too.

A design many want back but it may not happen.

Made it through heavy wind, heavy rain and cold temps to St. George. Now that's madness!
