Well guys its about time I finally joined you all.
Have been looking at one of these for 2 years now!
I came off a wr450 and 300exc.
Firstly the bike is a work of art to look at. Minimalistic which I love.
Secondly and most important is the bike oozes character. My previous bikes had none.
Then the suspension. 09 sounds good but this is far superior to any Ive had. The 05 300 on long rides would belt me to a pulp. And the wr fell away the faster you went.
Finally the power is unbeleivable. It has 2 personalities. Calm or crazy. Ha
I'm about to do a desert ride as the high country is pretty much on fire.
I have done this ride before on big bikes and have been underpowered.
Not this time though. Cant wait. Nice big tank, 5 min oil change, and lovely tall 6th gear.
Dirt Rider Mag US rated this engine the best enduro donk of all time!
Thanks to you guys. I constantly read what you had to say, and you sold me.
This is my 10th dirtbike over 30 years and already my favourite. I love it
Pete.
