    Awesome! Taken it for a spin yet?

    By the way, sure looks like you bought three, not one.

    The 2 blue bikes in the background are not mine.

    I took it for a spin around my property this afternoon, it's a peppy little bike and it handled the rocks and hills pretty good

    Honestly, I bought it for my 2 nephews... They were going to start coming up my house for the weekends and I was planning on putting them to work around the yard to earn a few bucks. I knew they'd blow the money on video games and phone cards so I spent their money ahead of time for them

    Re: It's a sickness that can't be controled

    I feel your pain, Mark! Two brandy-new ATV's in '07 for us, one brandy-new Raptor so far THIS year. And sadly, I found that '81 4-speed manual Corvette I've been looking for. Cheryl may end up killing me, but I'm making an offer on it today...

    Oh, the bike! What size is it? Are you bringing anything dirty with you to 'you-know-what, you-know-when'?

    It's a 110 4-stroke.

    As of now, my plan is to just ride the R1 up you know when, weather permitting So no plans for any dirty action as of yet

    They asked where I have been..I don't even stop in as often as I used to because I'm now 25 miles away from the dealer vs 2 miles like I was before...I think that was half my problem with bikes in the past, I'd go for an oil filter or something and come home with a R1.

    If my land wasn't so rocky, they'd have the quad that they wanted. I figured a small quad would get destroyed before they outgrew it...and I'm the one that would have to fix it

    One of these days I'll get around to installing the big bore kit & the rest of the junk on that TTR50... Some 12" on it, and it's GO TIME!

    sweet, now we have a 3rd mini for the ice, plus there is nothing quite like trail riding in the pitch black night on a mini with nothing but a flash light strapped to your helmet.

    Nice choice of bike. Nothing wrong with a bit of dirty action now and then. Those Yammies scream!

    Man the memories of those nights riding with the LED lights strapped to our helmets was priceless Beleive it or not there is a nice line around my trail for the mini's, once you ride it a couple times, it flows pretty good. Maybe a mini day sometime soon?

    Your WR looked pretty clean, has it even seen the dirt yet? One of these days I'll put together a dualsport loop and you can make that bike look like it's supposed to with mud stains and scratches
