Real estate is now the place to be, if you can afford to get in. Like many analists have said, housing may not be this low for a long time. Buy low and build your own rental empire ( your own SS).

Comming from coastal NCounty it is 2 hours to get out there. I use two custom made wood planks! Princess ( Sallies and Pansies are to common )

I believe those 06 models are pretty small.

I think that FMX just goes to show that honda does not want to give up on that motor. I has been bullet proof. Lots of other countries use them like crazy because of the simplicity and durability. Honda makes alot of money on that. I would love to see them keep that motor, update with Fuel injection and HP hop ups. Maybe integrate the old Nx Kick and electric start(same motor) and add the xr 400 oil cooler. Then maybe upgrade the suspension. They will make this bike and it will be around for another 20 years.

Your right. That 150 SCOOTER is much better. Come on!

Flaming troll! -
The fact that the minor offenses of lifting the front wheel, misproperly attached tags carry the same fine as going 50mph over the speed limit is what confuses me.

I believe the Dakar 650 is a legal street bike. I dont think it needs to worry about any registration problems.

In reading the specs for the enduro bikes I found the compression to be very high. Could someone ask if regular fuel can be run in the f 800 and 650x with 12:1.

ADV Bum replied to Crawdaddy's topic in Upcoming Organized or Promoted Rides and Events
If riding from here, how long in total will the trip end up being? If riding from here, what type of tires will you guys be using considering the amount and type of offroading you want to do? -
The 650l lives on. 17 years and running. That has to be the longest production run without modifiying.

Race fan, why I like the World Enduro series

So is this baiting or trolling? This is why so many topics end up worthless. Stop bitching if you are going to feed it! ADVrider is just a click away. -

Do not be fooled. I have heard such filth pour out of his mouth on more than one occasion. He can be mean and aggressive! -

Welcome to the site. Good luck on the wood chopper. If you aren't willing to buy a bike sight unseen. The real picture is from Europe, disregard the Alabama poster in the background. I'd bet it's danm fun to ride, a real headturner for sure. It was always said that my old XR650L was a 50/50 on/off road bike. After sitting on a Husky 610 for a few days I'd have to say it's closer to 30/70. It is suprisingly smooth on road and it appears that it will be much more capable off road than the XRL although I've yet to ride it outside my neighborhood. There are a few guys here with KTM 640s and you're welcome to swing by for a lookie loo but I can't tell you anything about owning a 610, since I don't. So is it true Klroger gave you his 610?

I absolutely agree that FI is better than a carb. They just have not produced the right DS bike with FI yet. IF they had I am sure you would of bought it by now. I have ugraded my carb to the adjustable edelbrock, but it still has different issues. I would love to have FI on the L.

A little!

Never say never. Not that often, yes. My 2005 dodge's fuel pump went out after 25,000 miles.

I ride for FREE! Does this mean if you help him fill his tours that you get a free ride on the lush mobile? -

Is he giving you a commission for selling his overpriced adventures? -
THis is a classic case of screwing someone. 99 percent of the time it wont be covered and you end up owing them for doing the work at some astronomical price! I was down there two weeks ago, and they gave me the slime ball impression as well. They are on my ignore list!

Even LONGER way home....
ADV Bum replied to Crawdaddy's topic in Informal Local Rides & Who's Going Riding!
Bum that is a great idea. I would like to do something like that for a couple of my bikes. Where do I look for gel pads? The cheapest place I found was on ebay. People age getting rid of used ones all the time. You really dont care about the covers, so you can get them cheap. Ebay under "gel pad". -

ADV Bum replied to Crawdaddy's topic in Informal Local Rides & Who's Going Riding!
Buy a gel pad and have a local upholstry shop add it into your seat. If there is enough seat tucked under and stapled to the seat pan you dont even have to buy a new cover. When I did this to mine I had them shave the foam a little bit so it was a smooth under the seat cover. Depending on what gel pad you get, you can cut it so that it adds just a llittle width to your seat. It made a world of difference for my seat, and I think I had 70 dollar total into it. -
Similar situation. Major surgeries when young. Took a swing a dentist who only had one of my arms tied down. I went to a dentist who does the sedation dentistry. He does a lot of sports guys. I took my wife to make sure I did not do something stupid while drugged. He gave me 4 of those pills. After 20 min I was still to conscious. His comment was " I have never given anyone 8 pills before, but here we go!" Did not remember much of the rest of the day! They should just dart my ass every couple of years like a wild animal. Seaside dentistry oceanside.
