Yay! Bought a dirtbike!

[LoudCrownVic 5,000+ posts]

Since I was at least 7 years old I have always wanted my own four wheeler or dirtbike. And today, at the age of 21, I purchased, for 700 dollars, my very own dirtbike. It's an onroad offroad Yamaha with a 225cc engine //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif . Pics and more info come tomorrow, bad thing is I might have to pass on the Dayton RS 7" mids for now, but... I get to go out and ride around out in the boondocks behind our house and other associated nonsense and adventures //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I hope so //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif I had a chance to buy a Buell Blast there as well, but a couple guys really wanted it, ended up going to like $2400. I actually expected it to go for less than I got my offroad bike for.

Yes //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif it's a 1994 XT225. It's been beat and dropped but it has new bars, new tires, great brakes and it runs great. So far the only major quirk is the battery, prolly needs a new one.

It was a consignment auction, with a percent going to a local fire department. Lotta stuff going for dirt *** cheap unles sthe owner had a reserve on it. I had a 1998 F-150 4x4 ext cab with a 4.6 in perfect *** shape bid up to $2100 but the ho no saled it. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

Have fun and ride safe. Always wear a helmet!

2 strokes FTW!

Anyone suggest a good style of helmet to use onroad and offroad?

Or is it best to buy two seperate helmets for each kind of riding?
