Post by: ToomanyKaws on April 24, 2009, 03:34:05 PM: My cousin lives in Reno yet. He keeps trying to get me to drag up a dualsport and do a club ride every May. Problem is I sold the KLR650 and KLX250. Thinking of getting a TE610.
Not enough time or planning this year for the race up there. Kind of want to try it next year on the KDX200. Lighter bike and easier for me to pick up and drag when needed. :-)
