Well, after talking to a couple of friends who know more than I do, I've decided to get a small dual sport, instead. I've never ridden off road before, so it makes more sense to start small.

Thanks, guys. I should probably note that I do have a bigger bike already that is suitable for the interstate. I just wanted something smaller and lighter that I could take off road. I'm leaning...

Shorter seat for Tao Tao?

Does anyone make a seat for the Tao Tao TBR7 that would make it ridable for shorter riders? I know CSC makes a seat for its TT250, but it's an extra $250.

RX3 or RX4?

Hi guys. I'm trying to decide between the two bikes. Basically, what I am looking for is the motorcycle equivalent of a capable SUV. I want something I can take on trails but also down the highway....

I have a highway bike already. It’s just that it’s big and heavy, and I find that I don’t care for riding it in the city. So I’ve been thinking a small adv might be nice. Been looking at the RX4,...

So now that you’ve had it for a bit, what’s your opinion on it as far as a sort of do-it-all bike? Is it capable enough to ride two-up over the interstate? How is it for a daily commuter?

RX4 as a rental?

While I’m absolutely ok with getting a TT250 or Hawk for the reasons mentioned earlier, I’m wondering if the RX3 is a decent answer, as well. Can an RX3 be made to run trails well? Or is it also too...

I had read that someone registered a Hawk in Maine before. That might be my best bet.

Ah, crap. I didn’t realize Maine is a CARB state. We just moved here last year.

Is the Brozz Recon not CARB Approved?

Me too. They even talk about how it’s slow and the brakes suck, yet they still preferred it over the CSC.

As far as a KLR650 goes, I’d be down for one of those, too.

I hadn't heard of the Storm. I just checked it out. Found one for around $1300, but that price didn't include shipping, so I'll have to get a quote on that. Great. Now I have another bike to add to...

Seat for the Brozz Recon

Does anyone make a lower seat for the Brozz Recon? I’m 5’7” with a 30” inseam and not sure I’ll be able to use it with the stock seat.
