    Anything over 75 or 80 on a dirt bike spooks me a little anyways.

    Got rid of the "geezer glide" lol (hey I'll be 63 very shortly) and picked up this little runaround scoot. Brought it home yesterday after an exhaust change and dyno. It's a total hoot to ride and for my day rides it's just perfect. Can't tell in this pic but it has very nice pinstripe on the tank and tail piece in orange.

    I guess I can say I ride a DT50MX now. Well still a work in progress, but it rides again!

    Looks like now I ride this Yamaha TTR-225 and this older 2-stroke 400cc Yamaha. Pretty excited to have a good bike to learn on! The only other bike I've ever had was that Honda 185XLS from like 1989. It was a good bike, but I was a kid with no way to get anywhere to ride.

    My wife had one of those 225?s. It was the first four stroke dirt bike I ever rode. I found it very easy to ride wheelies on it. Wasn?t much fun catching air as the suspension was a bit lacking.

    I don't know anything else, so I'm still excited. Plus I got a great deal on everything, so that helps.

    Be careful with that 2 stroke. They start winding up rpm wise, next thing you know 2500 rpm's jumps to 4K. Along with the front end.

    My grandmother recently passed on my mom's side. We have been helping to clear out the house so they can get it on the market (Canon City if anyone is interested). My uncle had the bikes there, but says he already has enough bikes. Some of you may remember that my grandfather on my Dad's side passed a few years ago and I came into some old bikes he had. Since I don't care for old shit, I talked to my uncle and traded straight across (+ $560 on my part) for these newer bikes and a mower! I'm super excited!
