I had so much fun on this bike, I had to buy one…had it only 48 hours and have over 250 miles on it…Pictures to follow.

Bottom Line – Fun, Adventure, AND Excitement!

I truly recommend this experience if you are prepared to go “off-road”!

Jock,
Great pictures and definitely a different perspective in doing "The Dragon". :2vrolijk_21: It's been ages since I've been on a dirt bike but seeing your pictures brought back some fond memories.
