Does anybody ride anything other than the big KX? Street, dirt, atv, water, bicycle?
Just curious. 8) Being, riding is a serious addiction, most people enjoy alot of diffrent sports, riding wise...

I skateboard? and ride snowmobile.

I ride Sportsters on the street.... and off the street from time to time. :wink:

The only two riding type hobbies I have is the KX500 and downhill mountain biking.
Here in Idaho, the ski resorts add racks to the chair lift and, for a small daily fee, you can ride the chair lift up and the bike down. Top speed to date coming down the side of the mountain on a ski run on the full suspension mountain bike is 44 MPH. :shock: Way to fast in spandex. We have only had one bad crash, and that was my brother in law. We found his bike hanging in a tree 10 feet up, and he had a compound fracture of his lower arm. :cry: Ended his riding for a while, but it was the last day of the season, and we were the last ones down the mountain. What a way to end the summer....
As for street bikes, I promised my wife that if she let us get nuts in the dirt, I would stay off the street, so no street bike for me.

I ride a CBR600RR right now, but I've been looking at the new '04 ZX-10R. Probably won't happen anytime too soon, but man that thing is BAAAAAD-ASS!! :twisted:
-
...Oh yeah, and I have a couple of YZ490's as my back up to the KX.
-
Id like to get a ZX-10R,but like Rick I agreed with my wife, no street bikes.I know Id end up in jail or dead because that things so fast and I wouldnt be able to resist riding it WFO!
-

Demographic realises that his nip to work bike is slightly embarrassing and backs slowly out of the thread, hoping that nobody spots the fact that he was ever there :oops:
I have a Honda CB 125 twin that I can go to work on for about a week and it uses less petrol than my KX would in about half an hour, I can also leave it outside and if it gets nicked it was so cheap that it would not be worth claiming on the insurance cos the excess is only 25 quis less than I paid for it......
There, I have admitted it, Happy now?
:wink: :lol:
OK so it would not pull the skin off a rice pudding but it's cheap and that means that I can spend more on the KX :D .........
And the new house........
Oh, and I need double glazing for the new house........
And central heating........
The loft conversion looks expensive also, even though I am doing a lot of it myself...........
Could do with a new shed........
Bugger, no wonder I am so skint :cry:

I've always wanted a CB twin. I purchased a CB750 four K. Needed carb work and I fixed it and have not yet put it back together. :-( I'd like to have a small bike to ride around on..
-
KX500s and plenty of spares (New bike in crate on the way for those rainy days ahead...)
KLX400SR for trail-duty/dualin'.
KX250 for the tight stuff.
KX250F that ain't mine; but, I ride the heck outta it!
TRX250R for real 4-wheel fun...
TLR250 for pretending I'm a trials rider...
Jet-Ski 550s because sitting down gives you a rash!
KLF 300 Bayou 'cause trail work requires power tools!
An old pick-up to haul all this crap around...

Haha, funny you mention that, I JUST purchased a Cheng Shin 23' up front for the bike from dennis kirk. Being it was only $30 too! Very slim and tall bike to ride, man, I can do a top-end on that bike in about 5 minutes MAX. That thing is a riot and the powerband is explosive. But, then again, ebay is the only way for parts. :(

I still have my '79 RM 125 from the 9th grade,it runs but its retired.I would love to have a '78 or '79 CR250,those bikes were trick!
-
I have a 1966 Royal Enfield Interceptor 750. Motor is froze. Talking about hard to get parts!

Errr....... trust me on this one, you don't want a CB 125 twin :(
Its only redeeming feature is the face that it cost 275 quid.
Oh and it's ok for showing my girfriends daughter how to ride a bike on
