    Revzilla will price match. But you havent had much luck with them. And cant beat getting it instantly vs the week+ that you normally wait :rofl:

    I would much rather have the WR especially the 2012 and later ones with the fuel injection. There aren't many unmolested ones here in south florida unfortunately, then the cost of turning it into a supermoto and getting it titled would of been out of my budget. Beautiful machine though.

    Thanks. This thread was the first one that caught my eye when scrolling. Been a bike guy since I was a kid.

    Getting the supermoto wheel setup isn't cheap I know that much. Thats why I'm in no rush to make it street legal. I ride dirt with that one. I also have a 04 cbr1000rr

    I think I got a pretty good deal on mine - paid $4000, it was all stock with around 2800 miles. I immediately did air intake, exhaust, ECU flash and performance rear shocks. It's really fun to ride and sounds great.

    I would have liked to get a Sportster (especially a Forty-Eight) but couldn't find any near that price range, all were much older or models I didn't want.

    They both fit. Guess I am keeping the KTM. Looking forward to this summer of camping and riding.

    I understand completely. You're in a good situation. One very capable bike for the street and one very capable bike for the dirt. Nice!

    Revzilla is cheaper than direct from saddleman. So If the dealer has it and will price match I’ll probably just buy there so I can ride home with it

    Fuck. The OC Harley dealer doesn’t have any saddleman seats in stock. I’m sure as shit not going up to the HB dealer. Maybe the Del amo will have them

    yea for sure not cheap to get quality...

    keep an eye out for used maybe?? I have come across some really good like pennies on the dollar type of deals out there

    ebay is loaded with used excel wheel, a lot of them have ridiculous lofty buy it now prices but I have found that sending the sellers a text looking for a lower price tends to work out, if not even take the listing off and sell it for significantly less given no ebay fee involved, deff always a risk but you can kinda tell the good sellers from the bad by checking out their other listed items their previous feedbacks and sometimes they even have full blown store websites.

    Go in and test it out. They ask how it is. "Oh I love it I'm gonna get one." Ok let's go ring you up. Oh no, I meant I'm getting one online, fuck your dealership. :rofl:

    Jackets here. It fits better. It’s a little loose in the torso area though. I bet if I put on a sweatshirt and some armor in there it’ll be better. Think I’m gonna keep it.

    Nice. I think a 06-08 DRZ SM will be the next bike I buy for my collection. They are so much fun to hooligan around on.

    So the jacket feels good on the bike. Much warmer than my mesh. However the sleeves pull back a little bit more than I’d ideally like. However it’s not a deal breaker. I think I’m gonna keep it and get longer gloves

    Yeah they are great fun, unfortunately the cops love them too haha. Easy to get parts, easy to work on, huge aftermarket support and they take an absolute beating all day.
