I agree. She's been through a lot already in her 5 years of riding and come a long way. You nailed it on the head - time to progress again. She's just really worked hard on her track technique and street riding. I hope I don't throw her all off putting her in the dirt. Either way, it...

No offense, but this is absolutely not true. The FZ09 wheelies way way easier than the FZ1. Having owned the FZ1, currently owning an FZ8, and having ridden the FZ09, the 09 was by far the easiest to wheelie of them all. Not even close to be honest - the 09 comes right up. In no way would...

So funny that your friends talked you into a dirt race. I remember several years ago racing an enduro in Florida.... I was riding a KX250 in 2000 (2=stroke) and with all the palmetto roots I fell every 15 minutes! Eventually it was so hot and I was so exhausted in the 3rd hour I just leaned...

Thanks guys. I'll have to wait a few months but the KTM WILL APPEAR next! I figure it will have to be an awesome shot to get your votes again. I'll be thinking about it all year.

How do you like them? Where are they made? I saw these available for the KTM and didn't know about the quality. What's your review of this product? Quality levers in your opinion? Very curious.

It is. It's a little screamer. Revs to 14,000 RPM and weighs 189 pounds. 22HP. Rode it for all of 5 minutes today and couldn't stop smiling. Makes my KLX250 seem like a joke.

Thanks! I'll let her know.

Funniest darn story I forgot to share! My wife was having trouble starting it - she's never kicked a bike in her life! My 11 year old daughter came outside and fired it up for her!!!! That was the funniest damn thing I've seen in a long time. The kid kicks her 80 to start it all the time so...

Well, here we go again. My daughter is ready to really get into some off roading this season so we decided to get something for Michelle to ride to go along with Lexi's CRF80 and my KLX250S. We got a super deal on a 2013 Honda CRF150R Expert so I bought it. Was brand new sitting on the...

KLX250 work Put the forks back on the 2009 KLX250S after new seals and oil. Cleaned up the rear caliper and put the wheels back on the front and rear with Kenda DOT knobbies for off roading. Sorry about the horrible phone pics.

To this day one of the best bikes ever made! Beautiful bike. Gear position indicator and fuel gauge in the mid 80s! Way ahead of it's time. Miss mine.

That's such great news! Now I'll have to buy a calendar! She will be very happy. Thanks to all the voters who appreciated the shot!

My vote is in!

Sounds great! Can't wait to hear your ride report and see some photos! Ride safe and enjoy it! Sounds like you got the one you will love! Congrats!

Ha! I do this all the time. Honestly, I never cared about a GPI until I had one. Now I just love having it. Like I mentioned above, the Geartronic II also has a shift light across the top of the GPI so for me it's easily worth the small expense. AND I stopped shifting to 7th! :)

This is really valuable information. I was actually going to suggest after reading you owned an SV1000 (which I also owned, 2007 SV1000S) taking a look at the Suzuki GSX-S 1000. Priced well, brembo brakes, TC, etc. Mentioning the Yamaha card explains a lot. (I have one of those, too!) That...

Someone will have to remind me to log in and submit it!

Exactly my point. If you want an FZ1, I would find a really clean unmolested used one with the same tech as the 2015 for thousands less. This is kind of why I wouldn't buy the new one for the price quoted by the dealer. Personally I wouldn't throw thousands of dollars at it in mods, but...

Just my opinion, but... The resale value on the FJ09 will be much higher than the resale value of the FZ1. Should you decide at some point you want to get out of the FJ09, there are a lot of options and buyers for it. There will be a much larger market for a 2015 FJ09 than a 2015 FZ1. I...

I'm in! Had to throw in a super cool photo of the family Ducati!
