    The Honda XR650, with 13x52 sprockets, does 55mph on road but will climb trees. I like climbing trees.

    Tfogger is getting me 14x48 sprockets. More speed could be dangerous.

    We shale see.

    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.

    Don’t let the age of that 400 fool you. That’s not necessarily a great “learning” bike - it’ll likely have some ridiculous power.
