Bought me a motorcycle...

Hey there, been a while since I've been on... lot has happened, sent out of town at least once, bought a motorcycle ('81 Honda XL250), the Tracker blew ANOTHER fuel injector (ended up rebuilding the head, I'm out about $400 but gained about 3mpg...)

Anyway, here's the bike:





It's an '81 Honda XL250S, picked it up for $800, took the classes and such to get my liscense (good timing, rode it to work for a couple weeks while I got the Tracker back together), it was sitting in a barn for 3 years, started right up, just needed a new fuel line, other than re-soldering a front turn signal EVERYTHING was functional other than the light for the front brakes... I've put very little money into it and it gets 60mpg (big improvement over the 15mpg of the Ranger, Tracker is up to around 28mpg again though...)

Anyway, it's fun, something different, and a whole different experience than driving a car...

I started on a KLR650. As far as enduro's go the small bikes are the way to go. Mine was a complete pile in the woods.

I took it offroad the other day for the first time, it's more stable than I expected going over rocks and such, was fun
