I had 2 bikes stolen at the same time many years ago & will never forget it. Unfortunately, if someone really wants to steal your stuff, they can usually get it. However, most thieves are lazy & not really clever, so with a bit of thought & work, you can dissuade most of the pricks. *Never leave you...

Trick Dual-Sport kit for CRF250X, CRF450X or WR. Includes headlight, handlebar switch, front turn signals, horn, AC line in, CRF-X tail/brake LED & both brake-light hydraulic switches. New, never installed. (sold the bike). Paid USD$480 plus shipping, open to offers... check out www.trickdualsport....

I think Claude is right. Lots of people exceed tow capacities & get away with it, but why take the risk? Your cars brake's, transmission & frame have a design allowance of 1000# tow cap. Knowing engineers, there is probably a safety margin built in there of 10 or 15%. Depending on the bikes, they ar...

$6000

Yeah, decided I wanted a street-legal dual sport type bike for more gravel & fire-road riding instead of single-track.
New DRZ400SM will be here in a couple days.

2005 Honda CRF250X. If you are even considering a CRF250X, you need to have a look at this one. Ridden only 4 times for a total of less than 20 hours. Nicely ‘dressed’ with the following goodies: • BRP SUB Scott's mount (sorry, damper not included) • E-Line carbon fiber Skid-plate • E-Line carbon fi...

if you have been considering a steering damper, a SUB mount will raise yr bars an inch or more. see www.brpit.com
there are also taller seats avail to make the transition sitting to standing easier for you big guys, but I don't have a link. google it or search thumpertalk & you will find it.

duz anybody know of a venue to sell old riding gear? Mostly street-bike stuff...
I've got a bunch of stuff gathering dust & really hate to throw it in the trash.
forget about ebay - I'm not interested in joining that cult.

took my own CRF out for it's 2nd time today.

It goes through roots & up hills with ease that would have been a challenge on the old XR.
Great bikes.
As we were loading up 3 other CRF250X riders stopped by to ask directions.
Honda must have sold a lot of these.

How do I change nickname?
Now that I bought the CRF-X, I don't kick anymore!

Let me tell ya, I have officially found the crappiest tire I have ever seen. It was a Pirelli but don't know the model.

Let us know which Pirelli it was! I have heard great things about the MT16 rear.

what pressure was he running in it?

Alpinestar Tech-8s seem to keep out the water reasonably well.
A quick couple steps through water over the ankles & feet stay dry.
I haven't tested them standing in water any length of time.
Knee deep water = wet feet every time.
