don't have any pics yet, but I sold the CB for $1200 (paid $250 for it and put less than $100 into it) so I took $260 of that an bought a kdx110 off some kid.
he had it posted on CL as a "kx65" and wanted $350 obo and said he "didn't know how to work on MX bikes"
well, I got there and its really a '05 kdx110 with a badly dented front wheel and the rear tire off the rim, but otherwise good shape besides all the stripped bolt heads fropm the kid using pliers to work on it :roll: I offer $260 and say that all the money I have and he let it go.
got it home, cleaned the carb (needle was stuck up), put some fresh oil in it and it fired on the 3rd kick :cool:
so today I';m getting a new rear tire and have to start looking for a front wheel or just a front rim :wink:
too bad its too big for Seth, I might try to do a partial trade with someone to get a 50 and a couple hundre bucks on craigslist :wink:
anyway, yeah, I'll get some pics tonight.

so, my buddy Dan and Mike both agree that I should just keep it for Seth and put some training wheels on it and just leave it in 1st. we'll see, I better pickup a nice bottle of wine on my way home so I can butter the wife up for the idea :wink:
