Can't go wrong with that one, but MX bikes are a big labor of love though.

aye, the G4 fity - nice!

Had a long talk with 2 of the guys who rode for BMW at the Pine Barons 300 a while back... the one where BMW bought out the whole event and invited GS owners to try the new bikes.

One guy rides the X650 and he claims it feels REALLY light compared to the KTM640. He rode a few enduros on it, loves it.

why not Joe and Tammy's track? LIMX? much better facility.

I prefer the longer rides / races, camping, etc.
Got out of MX racing 15 years ago... although, I'll go to e-town every so often for a change. Get that thing registered with some lights and come to some woods events with us.


oh and Congrats on the new bike!
