No KTM. Lookin for something more reliable and affordable.(CRF maybe?)
I was thinkin I'd ride the trials bike and see if you could follow me up a couple of new trails that we found on the sleds late season. But if ya got a CRF for me to ride, I'd for sure take you up on that one.

Get my number from Matt and call me friday night, and the 06 450R is for sell as the 450X is the perfect bike for me, just wish it had a little more top end like the R, the local honda shop says 2K change change that, but it also takes away from what makes the X such a perfect bike for me.....oh well, cant have it all
Im thinking $4,600 for the 450R, two sets of plastics, complete spare paddle tire rim and other stuff i cant think of right now
IMO the honda and yami bikes are bullet proof
this is the 450R
Where do you pick up trials bikes around here? I would love to try to get into that a little more, hoping rocks, boulders looks like A LOT of fun!

Phatty,
I compete once a month at different locals all over the state, usually the last weekend of each month. I know of a few trials bikes that are for sale. How much do you want to spend?
A good bike will run in the $2500-4500 range. There are some bikes that are better for curtain things, so it depends what you want to do with the bike.
Let me know and I'll help steer you in the right direction on a good bike.

Every trail at AF is free of snow...finally left the chest protector in the trailer this ride, what a bad idea....pulling all of third gear at the lower trail and did not see a big tit rock that launched on the rear tire, knew i had to bail as the bike was going straight for the brush pinned in third, for some reason my big dumb arse stayed on the bike and went tree bashing...felt my body fly in the air (you know the feeling when a big crash is coming, everything gets silent and you start thinking about weird stuff like am i going to walk away from this?...well, for what seemed to be 2 minutes of my failed superman trick i finally came back to earth, my eyes were closed and my body very limp (ive done this before)...BAM! my back lands on what appears to be a rock or something solid, back got stiff real quik, took a few minutes to stand up, brushed my shoulders off like "mr cool guy" and rode the rest of the day, a few cuts and black bruising on the back, no big deal
Trust me, my no skills arse will always ride with full gear
Mostly rode around the Cascade Springs side..

Glad your OK! Ray!!!
I had a two wrecks on the Mtn bike on Sat. One at 20-25 mph and another at lower speed, that hurt worse than the high speed wreck. Had the same slowmo effect and opening the eyes to find I was alive and un-hurt. Thanks to wearing the right gear and having the skills to miss the big tree.
Hitten 35-37 mph on the single track on a Mtn bike after climbing 2000 vert. gets the blood goin!

you really think he is smart enough to run one????
any of you Ut's ride the dunes up in ID???
I havent for a few years, but I love the wide open riding up there.
10 miles from my parents house, so i grew up riding them... i hate sand now, it gets everywhere and in everything,
oh yeah almost forgot ill be there this weekend
St. Anthony's sand dunes are much funner than little Sahara's. It's worth the extra hour drive for us. We get up there 3 or 4 times a year usually.
I will let you know when we are going, I have a rope for anything your riding!!! 14 hours for me
