First time dual sporting on Lifan 200

vman1313 · 10-04-2013, 01:12 PM

Greetings! Just wanted to share a quick video of my first dual sporting experience on my Lifan 200cc. If you know this North Georgia Area, I started on Blood Mtn (129) and then rode some Forrest Service Roads out to the Russell Richard Parkway (365). From there, I turned on 180 towards Brasstown Bald, up the mountain, and then back again. The footage on the video is the climb up to Brasstown Bald and of one of the Forrest Service Roads. I sped it up in places to get more footage in. Not a great video but hope you enjoy!

Great video. Looks like a wonderful place to ride.

Thanks for posting the nice video.

You're hooked now.

I was living on the Forsyth/Hall County Line off of 53 where that Dollar General is BUT NOW I live near the WalMart closest to the Mall of Georgia. I miss being so close to all the mountain twisties and forest service roads BUT I am not that far away I guess. Living down here has added about 15-30 minutes to get to my Mountain Enjoyment. HAHAHA! We should meet up and ride sometime.

I am a little TOO hooked and so is my girlfriend. She was on the back of that Lifan during the video having a blast as well. We went and looked at the new Honda CRF250L and will most likely buy one pretty soon. Fuel injection is sweeeeeet! HAHAHAHA!

I live in the Northwalk subdivision, by Jot'em'down/Bethel. You were 2 minutes from my house! Small world. Mrs.O, my grand-daughter, Daisy (dog) and I just left Port Royal marina, after a nice boat ride/swim off 3 sisters island. The water is still 74. Incredible day! I went for a short ride on my Redcat this morn. I need to get these bikes registered, but I envy your ride up thru Cleaveland up the 129/11 ! Sounds like you and your girlfriend had a wonderful time.

Katoranger, I know you love where you're at now, but it sounds like we'all would have had a great time.

I know Spud. Go figure!

I know exactly were you live. I also have been to the spot on the water.

Stopped a few times at that DG on hwy 53. Watched a sailboat burn to the water line at Port Royal.

Vman. I don't think I would like living near the Buford Walmart. I didn't shop that one much. Usually the Hamilton Mill location. It was on my commute.

katoranger · 10-05-2013, 09:19 PM

The water looks like its up in the lake.

Thanks for the vid. Life is good on an air cooled 200cc four stroke DS, especially on the trails.

The highest it's been in years. Most of the beach line is under water. We're not complaining though, nice to have the water.
