03 gone,, only my 97 left,,
- Thread starter Cruiser
- Start date
The Pt guys say I'm making good progress but keep telling me it will be a long road.. I just want to get back to normal! The hardest thing was when the guy was test running Her,, I just wanted to take a short spin..But I know I cant,, Just sitting here typing the pain is high and I'm getting muscle spasms thru my arms and back.. I keep thinking 515,, for the road? maybe the ralley front end?? Would be nice riding with all those KTM adv. 640's and 950 on a bike that can actually have fun off road..

Steve,
The first time it gets real nasty you will wish you bought a 2-stroke. Trust me on this, been there done that. So did Craig. The heat, weight, and the yank off idle make things miserable in a tough tight ride/race. Plus, your not that tall, so its harder to save a tipover in the rock gardens if things get slow. You will get through this tough time, and ride mine again before making a decision.
Hypermotard in two weeks!!

Glenn,
To tell the truth,, I'm thinking about two bikes if I can swing it,, a 2smoker for the woods and tight stuff and a 4 banger for ds runs and the more open trail exploring that I have access to.. I'm hoping to save enough while I'm down to do this.. I also kept the 97 for the really nasty stuff.. The cb motor is the best in the rocks.. just want to get a better set of forks for it..

If you can do it go for it! I can't sell my HD, so I'm trading it in on a Hypermotard. Truck is killing me on gas. I'm going to wait and see how the rumored GG 350F plays out, but I will always have a 2-stroke. Ask Ernie to measure his front axel. I have a good machine shop around here that will make one off stuff at a reasonable price if you need a special made.
Kamuggamugga ride this weekend. Maybe we can tape up your neck just tight enough but not too tight.
Just kidding buddy, heal up I'll talk to you soon.

If I was ok to drink I'd head up for some bench racing,, but that would push my liver over the edge I think..
I think I could make one heck of a play bike out of the 97,, I'm starting to feel ok enough to think about wrenching on the bike.. Problem is is when I try to do it I realize how much it hurts.. A couple more months of PT and I'll be up to a 10# limit,, still on the 5#..
