I've got an 03 Buell XB9S and motarded 02 CRF450R (which I'm trying to sell). May pick up a cheap dirtbike whenever the CRF goes, but not many places to ride near Derby (that I know of)...

Why selling the motard? I have a plated and tarded CR500

I had a 2009 r6s but I sold it and bought a 2009 TTR 110 and have gotten big into pit bike riding... I love it.. a lot more freedom than a street bike... expecially since I became scared of it after my incounter with a deer... OUCH!!
I have a 1976 Honda CB 200T getting a little Cafe Racer treatment this winter.
Had a 1983 CB350, 1986 Rebel, and a beautiful 1992 HD 883 Sportster.

The CB350 I sold, the Rebel I wrecked :spin:, and Sportster Is in storage (Overcharged my Old Man on the sale:devil:)
the little old CB200T is stripped to the frame. Didn't take any pics of before :( Stupid me, but when it is semi back together; there will be Picture.
That would be awesome, Cafe it up. I'll keep my eyes peeled as well...

oh really I just bought a KLX 110... I think i may be going tomorrow to buy an extended swingarm and aftermarket shock for it. It came with a 143cc takegawa top end kit, pro circut bars, hydrolic clutch, IMS pegs, over the peg brake pedal, FMF pipe and some other goodies... also got a tall seat in the mail right now.

nice. after i get the extended swingarm and aftermarket shock for it in the next week or so from a highschool kid :lol: I am going to custom fab a rear disk brake and sell my KX60 front forks for KX65 front set this winter to pick up a disk brake in the front. do you ride around the yard/woods/road or do you actually track it? I just like to screw around on mine. Should bring yours down before the snow if you dont have anywhere to ride I have like 15 acres and a few buddies with them and a lot more land
any pics of you riding bike? u wear a helmet?

I think I found you a new toy... my sisters father in law is selling his bike.. if your really interested i'll get you more info. all i know is its between a 1970 and 1990 and most likely a jap.

Got my ATV almost all ready for winter. tore it down, cleaned the air box and filter, WD-40'd everything and installed the racks. waiting for tomorrow to get a few bolts to re-attach the heel guards. I usually like to run it without heel guards but if I take a passenger (which happens most often in snow storms) then without them they have to watch out they dont catch their heel on the tire (hurts a lot if your lucky and dont rip your leg out of your hip)
just about got the money together for my UP/DP for the car... after that im saiving for a race light for my CR500. prepping that for winter and doing some re-wiring for the new light is on tomorrows to-do list
I think it looks kind of ghey with the racks on but form over function I guess for now. they'll be back off (especially the front) in the spring

so its getting warm out everybody? anybody been riding at all? I went for a great ride on sunday with two other buddies also on mini's my big bike is still taken apart and I got half the seats out of my jet boat so i can re-cover them! heres a pic of the little bike from the weekend. On the little bike I went from a 22mm to a 26mm carb with a new intake manifold, and a two brothers exhaust system. Im about to switch to a disk brake in the rear and then start saving up for new front forks with a disk brake setup up front.

Unfortunately there are NO legal ATV trails in CT, At all. There is however one park where you can legally ride a dirtbike as long as its registered in CT. However, you can ride on any private property with the owners permission, carrying a written letter of consent from the owner as long as you are not causing noise pollution and your ATV/quad is registered in CT. Now you see why I hate CT right?
