So I take it the MX track ride went well except for the '' Mothers knuckles drag on the ground Syndrome.''
ie stretched arms.

Shit I just realised I have never ridden a 125.
Or a 250F or a 450F for that matter.

Was pretty much all new trails apart from the last couple of K's where we come back into the control. Nah fuck riding the 500 in enduro's. Have a KTM 300 for that. 500 might be ok for the Indy 500 though....

Each to their own.....Im a KTM man but have 2 Honda's. KTM have enough world enduro,Australian Enduro, and GNCC championships (and 1st,2nd at Finke this year) to speak for themselves.... So there is not much of an argument there !!

Posted: July 5th, 2009, 5:31 am
by juddy
yeah the 380's are sick.I know I'll probably rock the boat but my opinion is they are a fast as a CR 500.

WOW!
That looks great, I also see you have what looks like a gen2 on the bench getting the CUT and SHUT.
How many bikes have you converted now.
After spending some time on your gen4, what do you think of the handling and have you encountered any problems with it.
What did you do for a rear pipe mount?

johns will be our 3rd 01 cr 02 cr and my crf
i havnt got a rear exhaust mount yet but i put a second one on the muffler so im waiting to see what happens if the pipe cracks
my crf handles really well im looking at sending the forks and shock to terry hays at shock treatment for a rebuild/service and race tech treatment. the cr 250 is a much easier conversion
