Well lets see. I'm 53 a grandpa twice over, have four boys all which have been introduced to the sport of dirt biking. I fell in love with motorcycles in 1962 and have owned them since 1967. I'm a DIY type of guy and really don't know if I enjoy wrenching or riding more. LOL.
I always find it enjoyable to associate with people in this sport who try to improve upon a bike and experiment, test, etc. I'm also one of those that are Happy but not totally satisfied - I know it can be better, etc, tinker, tinker, tinker, (my wife just does not understand)
I've enjoyed both the street and dirt bike aspects of this sport although I find myself more drawn to the dirt bike aspect the last ten years or so: Seems like the cages out there want to run over me while their drivers talk on cell phones.
Just found out about this site a couple of days ago - recognize a few names.
I've thought the KDX was an excellent trail machine since they were air cooled and competed against the IT 175/200/400s which I rode at one time. I bought a KDX 200 for my 14 year old boy thinking it would be a great step up from his TTR 125 L and something that would remain in the family at the yet-to-be-built retirement cabin in Montana.
I look forward to learning and sharing information with the members on this site!!
