Hey all...new here.
« on: September 29, 2003, 11:43:07 PM »
Just wanted to say hello.

33 years old. Had a few CR's and KX's back in the day. Last year I had about 6 months on a 2002 CRF450....it was really nice...but I decided that a 500 2 stroke was MUCH easier to start after a stall and most of the time. ALso...I think the KX puts out about 10 more HP. The CRF required SO MUCH maintenance it was stupid unless you were a racer. I don't race. Just play. Live in Upstate, NY.

I own a 2003 KX500. Just picked it up all the way down in South Carolina. What a long drive from up here in NY (left at 7:30 PM Saturday and got to the bike at 1:30 PM on Sunday...drove without sleep). At the TOP of NY too! Right near Canada. My wife came for a ride down with me. After I picked it up...we headed STRAIGHT for a motel! I didn't wanna keep the bike out in the truck at the motel as I was in a strange town and a strange place. So.... :twisted: I brought her in the motel room with us! Look....see?  :twisted:


There are a few other pics from the room at

The bike is stock but has a graphics kit that ain't sticking to well. I'll try to fix that soon.

Well...I'm getting ready for a ride! :twisted:  Later!

rhinogrrrly...hahaa that's funny!  :lol:

Not jealous...Just cautious...That beast would rip my arms off!  :roll: It's all in the throttle, though...I would have to use sparingly!  :shock: heeeheeeee

BTW-Arizona is beautiful...Good hunting (from what i hear) and good fishing (just went on Sunday!  :wink:  )
Plus, the sunsets are to die for...Rain becomes a treat to get giggly about and you rush to load up the bike...

In Phoenix, you're two hours away from high country and pine trees...and 4 hours from sitting on white sand on the beaches of Mexico, sipping Corona...or glugging!  8)  And you're still fairly close to Glamis what...4-5 hours? Anyway...It is very beautiful with awesome riding available!

Thats right, 4 - 5 hours away from the big sand box. NOTHING on Earth pulls like a 5 hunny with a 10 blade 5.60X18 paddle on the back. Oh my shoulders ache just thinking about it :lol:

Welcome!

BTW, you can "Break" your K5 down and UPS it anywhere! I've even put bikes, in parts, in gear bags and "checked" them on airplanes as luggage (Pre-9/11).

A creative guy could ship his scoot out here for, I'm guessing, about $75-each direction, and sneak in some "Snow-bird" time in the desert! 3-4 boxes! The big brown TRUCK!

Get those plane tickets and your shipping forms out!

See you at Glamis!
BRRRRAAAPPPPPPP!
