Hello all,

My name is Andy i live in Cornwall which is in the South West of England. I first got into biking in 2006 Just after i got married, with a SV650 me and my mates would go out on ride outs and stuff so on and so on and as you can imagine became pretty boring. Just before i went away on deployment in 2007 me and my mates discussed about getting some trial bikes to knock around on in the winter months. We were all up for it i came back 6 months later, they had there DRZ's and there CRX and poor me was bikeless. My mate let me have ago on his DRZ and i dont think nothing prepares you for that sort of encounter, i swear down i could not stop grinning :grin: even after i had taken off the helmet i just wanted a crosser there and then.(SV650 im sad to report just gets me to work and back and dosent get treated no where near as much as i treat Lucy, Yes thats right people i named my KDX Lucy) :supz:

Fell in love for a second time with a beautiful 97 KDX220 which someone i knew was selling for a friend, he needed a quick sale on it as he was moving to Aussie. Picked it up for what i think was a very good price of £700. Much to the jealousy of all my mates who had heard such good things about KDX's.

So far i have had to do a top end rebuild with replate. Ive had the stock rear shock re-built and serviced. Most recently i have purchased everything i need to carry out the KX250 USD MOD. Absolutly cant wait to get that on the go.

Well i think ive bored you all know hopefully get to find some intresting info on here on how to make the beast even more special to me
