Bye bye

O well ...15mins ago I waved good bye to the Husaburg as it went
up the road on it's new owners trailer.... Think age is catching
up with me... i like the more layed back bikes these days..
The Husaburg was a full on rocket... not that rider any more dam
I hate saying that..... I quess the days of having a national enduro raking
are a distant memoy now... looks like the TTR250 is it from now on....
I will see it from time to time... seen the guy before
at a few of the Enduro's I ride every now and then still...

So whats next? ... bloody arm chair with wheel most lightly...


The day I picked it up...

Well if it has wheels you could always strap an engine on it.

A lazy 4 stroke, larger than 250, is still a possibility for you! I mean, a street legal Suzuki DRZ400s or sm (probably not the sm because of the street tires) would be a good compromise. What about one of the street-legal 650's from Honda, Suzuki, or Kawasaki (KLR, baby!!).

I got rid of my dirt-only bike a few years ago; it was sad, but smart. I now just putt around on my 250 (or less) dual sport bikes.

I have a big ADV bike...one very tricked out Yamaha XT660R..
