I have 2006 KDX200 and a 2008 KLX450r I started riding again in 2007 after a 25 year break. Found the KDX new as a leftover and bought it- figured I'd ride for a few weeks and get the mid-life crisis thing out of my system. Still plugging away..... barely. I like the characteristics of the 450-...

Thanks.... I did see the pics on the gg site.... anybody have a tissue? I guess my goal is to just see if the GG makes more sense. I know that when you compare the WR to the XC-F, people say that the KTM costs more for a reason- and that the bikes are worlds apart in components, quality, etc...

Anybody seen the new 250f? I'm all over the place on bikes, but have kind of decided that I'd like to try a 250f. I was looking at the WR250f and the XCF-W, then remembered that the GG 250f uses the WR motor, so it's an option. Pretty sure it doesn't have the hydraulic clutch like the KTM, but...

I had some of my monitors at work die... So I bought some parts, got the solder out.... yeah, right! I couldn't even see the end of the soldering iron. Getting old sucks! 46, btw.

Those things are glazed I bet, and the water makes them "chatter" on the disc. Might be able to rough them up and see if that helps.

DC Plastics I know their stuff is vacuum as opposed to injection, and it's not fair to compare but....... 3/4 of the stuff I get from them is pretty scary stuff. I mean, if you need the part, I guess you have no choice but.....

Best wishes for your new lease on life! Enjoy.

On a 2011? Seems the gasket would be fine- unless original thickness of the gasket was not sufficient- if two solves the problem, that may be the case. The e-start kind of worries me. I don't know why, but my impression- admittedly just from pics and some discussion- is that it was an...

Tough Stuff guys. Really sorry for your losses. I guess as we get older, all those stupid things we were told when we were younger; Nothing lasts forever, life is short, don't not say something because you may not have the chance again, etc start making sense. These must have been some special...

Just terrible.... Prayers for everybody there. Looters.... I can't even imagine that. Though nothing suprises me.

2/4 Anyone who likes the wide power spread of a 4 stroke only needs to ride a GG 300 2 stroke. Was that directed at me? :D I think that's the way I'd like to go.

Good read- Was that current? Didn't see a date. Just curious. I have a 450/4 that I kind of like and want a new 250/300 "something" and was leaning 4-stroke, but the repair/maint issues do concern me. I love the power delivery of a 4, but know that new technology can make a 2 feel like a 4- in...

Might have been good over some Pasta with a little grated cheese. That bolt is pretty cool for us U-Boat commanders- I've dumped my bike in rivers where it's completely under water- that bolt would be nice to have.

Total loss to the Manufacturer.... About $80. Talk about junk.

You need a special type of self control to deal with people like that. And I mean that seriously- their mindset & personality is so foreign, that it's almost to the degree that you literally can't deal with them. Hard to put into words- Probably similar to those that are in the Military and...
