So...coming to a head with the bikes atm...The dt is almost done now - USD forks fitted, switch gear modded etc...its slightly more ahead now then when the pic was taken - handle bars and everything fitted. That means the yz is next on the list and I dunno what to do! Should I just keep it as a crosser? Its quite likely Ill sell both both bikes and buy something else...or a car and a bike or something. Anyway, Im thinking if I slap the sumo setup on the yz250 and road reg it, and sell the dt with the off road yz setup on it, I can make more money..?

I need a bigger bike, but ill wait till august to do the test as ill be 24 :D So I just dont know. Had a go on a quad the other day...was quite fun...might buy one.
Just cant decide what I want...I need a car, should I just buy a ****ty one and keep the bikes, or sell the bikes and get a snazzy car and a crosser? Went and looked at a 1987 Triumph Spitfire the other day - love it. Oh and a few classic bikes...I just want something fun...no golfs or astras...uykiuygtkuygh.jpg

you'd more than likely get more money from a road reg'd sumo'd YZ so that would be my first port of call

Pretty sweet dt.

Snazzy car is nice and more practical. Bikes are more for fun than anything else.

Give you £300 for the DTX setup. Wheels, forks, brakes and speed-o drive. ;)

I wouldnt, supermoto the YZ250 the close ratio box on them is just to close for a road bike even if you gear it up they are reved out in top to quick as you know, they make a great enduro bike if you register it and stick lights on it though.

I did it with a brand new 04 YZ250 I nearly cried when I sold for a KTM 525EXC mind you the 525 would make a great supermoto cause they have the legs.........

Yeah I havent been riding the yz on the road with the dt plate on thats for sure. so i dont understand how fúcking beasty the yz on the road is...with wiseco race crank, piston, k+n air filter etc...its not like it wheelies in every gear ever when you dont want it to... :D

thing is i could get a westfield 2.3l if i sold the bikes...ultimately - I have a house in london and a house in oxford so i need something to do motorway journeys on...or at the very least long a road journeys on the rgulaarrr

Yeah it would just be a weekend thing...I might sell the dt and buy a car for long journeys and keep the yz...it will have swappable sm and enduro setup so can do either....Im not too fused about going faaaaast...i much prefer thrashing about in cities anyway
