Uh-oh, there went the Jeep savings fund. :redneck:
It's an '00 TTR-225, street legal. Nothing special, just a bike to put around town and to work and back and take out on the single track trails around here and have some fun. Took it out the first night and went on the Beehive trail and the first three miles of the Devil's Gulch trail with a couple of friends, then we went riding again on Sunday and clocked about 80 total miles between Wenatchee and Leavenworth in all the canyons. Shouts out to snowboarder and mthompson. :redneck:
First order of business is going to be putting a bit smaller rear sprocket on that biatch... it's geared real low right now, which is great off road, but it's a real struggle to do 60mph with it geared that low.
BTW, I test rode a '95 KTM 400 the same day I bought this... but man, I'm a short guy and that thing was tall tall tall, and was left hand side kick start only, just too much bike for my short inexperienced self. I figure with the way gas prices are going these days, as long as I take care of this thing and keep it in good shape, I'll be able to sell it for at least what I bought it for down the road when I'm ready for a bigger bike.
