    I don't know what your plan is, but OK. Sounds like a plan.

    This one looks fun. I bet I could get someone to store it for me until daytona...

    Yeah. last time it was blue jeans and a helmet. This time I'll do it right and get the boots and everything.

    Help me pick one of these skis... (sorry!)

    For a 100lb girl, she won't have trouble with any of those on your list. She could probably stand in the tray with engine off without falling over. Go ahead and do it right and get a superjet. It's probably best to buy a pre 08 unless you can find a super deal to make it worthwhile on an 08

    yes mainly trails, but the biggest riding area that I would have is an entire mountainside full of trails including some good jumps at the bottom. The top has some rocky areas that would be perfect for a trials bike. So, my answer is yes.

    Now that looks like a plan. It's not that I'm dead set on this style of riding. That's just about all there is. Tracks and the high injury potential don't really interest me or the wife and there are plenty of free trails around here.

    It's the same company. I doubt I'd want to ditch the front forks. They're probably the most expensive component on the bike.

    It's 121lbs. You could push it out.

    Yeah, it will take some thinking to justify the value of it. There are a couple places with hundreds of acres of trails open to anyone. Who knows, I may end up with a KTM. I am just really liking this concept for now and I think that by the time one is available to buy, I'll have my mind made...

    I tend to like to be in the woods alone. I can ride with groups, but for me it doesn't matter either way. I ride my mountain bike alone always. I rode my dual sport and my four wheeler mostly alone. Actually, I tend to like it better. I can go at MY pace and go where I want to go. Group...

    I get it. Not a full sized dirt bike. It's not supposed to be. It's based on downhill mountain bike components. It weighs 121lbs. It's meant for mainly technical trail riding. It's not meant to run side by side with the big boys. You can pick it up and throw it in the back of your truck.

    It's more of a mountain bike with a motor. Even back when I had a weak little dual sport, I mainly did trail riding. I could probably use a ktm trail bike, but this seems very interesting and about what I need. It's like X-2's. Not for everyone, but some people really like them.

    Here's the deal. I DO NOT have the wife's blessing to go out and buy a dirt bike today. We did discuss things a bit and here's the deal. With her blessing (reluctantly) I am going to add my name to the waiting list to buy an FX Bike http://www.fxbikes.com/index.html I emailed the US rep in...

    Missing Motocross!!!!!

    I understand what you're saying, but what are you supposed to do if you are new? How do you get track experience if you aren't supposed to ride on the track? Segregation by skill makes sense, but it's a bit elitist to say that those that aren't already experts can never ride. Kinda limits the...

    So it wouldn't fit in our storage unit a mile down the road? Honey :smlove2:

    Looking for 1st dirt bike.

    risk of injury and for the immediate time, money. Money will be fixed soon enough after I get a few boat projects behind us. I guess it's because I had a dual sport when we first started dating and I got screwed up pretty bad when I hit a dog. I had terrible road rash and a sprained wrist. I...

    Looking for 1st dirt bike.

    No, because then we'd end up with a new dog or cat or some BS like that. I'd hate to have to kill an animal over this.....
