ENDURO!
Picked up a winter bike this weekend... Been looking for a nice single for quite a while. Was set on an sr500 for a while, but couldnt find one in decent enough shape to pay for.
At the same time i wanted something light and nimble enough to ride all winter through some snow etc. I came across this on CL and checked it out.. Picked it up much cheaper than listed because the dude couldnt get it started, I had to kick it over to get it started. Then when you popped it into gear the clutch was engaged and it would kill the bike. I got a deal. Brought the bike home put it in high gear and rocked the clutch loose.. haha... was riding it 5 mins later...
This thing is gnarly... no top speed but man will this thing wheelie...
Learning about these real fast, but i already have a ton of plans for this guy... Ill probably stick to things i can change overnight/weekend projects, as i will be riding it most of the cold season... But it will be super fun...
