18" Rear Tire and Graphics on the Hybrid

Post by Bouillion »

Updated picture of my 05 KX-DX Hybrid. Still looking for a good skid plate and radiator guards.

Looking forward to the LACC 2011 Series kicking off next week in Leesville, LA.

Sweet looking bike! Now just get rid of those KX graphics! :mrgreen:

Hmm, I just figured out what a KDX-KX hybrid really should be called, a KDX-X or maybe KDX2 (with the 2 being represented like the mathematical squared notation).

Yeah, I'm nuts! :lol:

I kind of like the KDX2 equation. Maybe one day I'll splurge for some custom KDX2 Graphics?

Personally, I'm partial to the KXDX moniker. Probably because I used to have a FXDX Harley.

Looks good. :supz:

See if you and Cody can keep Daniel out of trouble for me this weekend. He's working the Leesville race and I'm working 12 hour night shifts this weekend. I'll be looking for y'all at round 2.

Sorry to hear you have to work the weekend. We will be on the look out for Daniel. We should be at round 2 also. I believe Cody is going to try and ride the whole series this year? He also managed to talk my daughter into riding this weekend. That should be interesting.

Hopefully the weather holds out. I noticed they call for rain Sunday? 30%

I wasn't planing to ride anyway but I won't be able to make it there that weekend. From what I hear, they are expecting a large turn out.

Kind of depends what type of terrain you want to ride. We have several public riding areas. Brock Creek, and Mill creek are probably the best. Also depends on how far north you are willing to go. Just north of Mena you have Wolf Pen Gap and Fourche Mt. You also have the Bear Creek area at Kirby landing northeast of Lake Greeson. Some of the riding areas are either at or near state parks such as White Rock Mountain, Devils Den, Mt. Magazine, Crater of Diamonds etc. Lots of riding opportunity here, come on up we'd love to have you.

Yes, it will be ready. I already have all the parts to do a complete overhaul - top and bottom.

Daniel could have raced the KDX but he decided to work instead.

See you at round 2.

Weekend at Track

Post by Bouillion »

Took the hybrid to a local track this weekend to get a little riding in before the next hare scramble with my son and a few of his friends. Late in the afternoon, following a minor issue on his KTM 250XCW he took the hybrid out onto the track. It was one of those priceless moments when he rolled up back at the pit proclaiming "I hate this bike", when asked why, his reply "I'm faster on it".
