Motorcycles BS Thread 2.0

I'd say that's pretty accurate haha

 

Throw it all out and get a Rokon, lol

 

It's not going to be. I suppose I'd just keep riding the 650 you have. But maybe you need a trail only bike instead and still ride the 650 otherwise.

Ain't that the truth

This is pretty damn true. Granted the non-street legals can be converted but at extra cost for those parts.

 

The new Icon Alliance GT!

 

Lol.
I can see your camera, in your visor, in your camera, in your visor.

 

All models are 2005. Taken from same source. Weight is dry. Prices are msrp when they were new I'm guessing.

Xr650l - 324lbs - $5599
Wr450f - 244lbs - $5499
Drz400s - 291lbs - $5499
525 exc - 249.3lbs - $7548
450 exc - 250.3lbs - $7298
400 exc - 257.8lbs - $7198
2012 350exc-F - 241lbs - $9699

 

The more I read about converting WR450's the more barebones I want to get haha

 

$10k for a dirtbike?? Ill stay street thanks. But thats new. Or check the used market..

 

What do you mean?

 

All the different methods people go about making these things street legal.

I'm just going to use the stock headlight and taillight, run a hydraulic switch from the foot brake to the taillight, wire a high/low beam switch, and install a horn. That's it.

 

That's what I would do probably too. Probably throw in blinkers too cause I hate using hand signals and people are dumb enough as is

 

I've been going back and forth on whether or not to add blinkers. I use them on my CRF, but only because they're there. I catch myself using hand signals 90% of the time anyways because it seems like nobody sees my blinker anyways.

I guess I'll get a headlight/horn switch that has a blinker switch as well just in case I decide to add them later on. The front blinkers would be easy. But finding somewhere to add rear blinkers would be a bit more challenging without getting a whole new taillight/mount assembly.

 

Man, Idk if I could get a new wr and add shit to make it street legal when a ktm 690 enduro is only $1500 more and ready to go.

 

Slightly off topic but I have been reading about how to go about getting any bike plated, even ones that read "offroad use only" on the title. Seems a bit skeptic and dependant upon what state you live in you may not have this issue, but figure I'll pass the link along to anyone who is curious. Looks like people are not having any major issues.

It seems that this thread turned to supermoto for know but couldnt find a better place to share my pics from a trip I did to south america last month. Any MX/ enduro people in here?

 

Looks like a lot of fun!

 

I have a 1988 xr200r that I wheel around the house with. For all the farther I'm going I could ride it on the highway but it doesn't go any faster then 45 lol. It's a really fun bike though.

 

Here is my 2008 RM-Z250:

 

My 2001 R1100rl. Most comfortable bike I've ever owned. The one I'll never sell.
