    You may not want to attempt these trails on a KLR, but the KTM450EXC shown in these videos is the absolute perfect woods and Colorado weapon, and can be yours for a mere $2500. (shameless plug:deal) I just put it up for sale yesterday.

    Scott, I was going to ask what you're riding. Are those Kenda big Blocks?

    Daylight savings this Saturday, spring is here! New tires for my KLR are sitting on my landing, have friends with skills and magical machines that can actually change the tires for good beer, (and balance!). Going 50/50, Kenda 270 rear, Shinko 244 front.

    Count me in! I got the KLR running today and it looks like she's ready for some Missouri mud again this year. Will try to get Horseman off the farm for a couple days and bring him with too.

    Looks like a great ride. I noticed they're asking for payment but didn't see anywhere on the web site what that payment is? :huh Do you know what the cost is?
