Granted I haven't reached the tired of riding stage just yet. Hope I never do really
Well I've had a 7 year run of riding with only one pause for a leg injury. But I'm not done yet, all three bikes started up today and begged for a spin, I told them soon,,,,,, soon.

I would love to have time to ride, I'm not even complaining about the weather, I would have been out today if I wasn't working.

I'm hoping to sell my landscape/property preservation business this spring/summer, I am sick of 6-7 day work weeks.

Sounds like here would be the place to mention it. You have a couple interested already.

Guys, shoot me a PM if interested in the FE570. I don't want to clog up this thread with my spam.

I guess it depends how much street riding you plan on doing. Clearly the 500 would be less stressed on the road.
That's nonsense. I've been riding a 525 in the Ohio woods for years. I just picked up a new KTM500 for Ohio woods duty. Just shift up, and turn the handle.

Gents, hope I'm not out'a line here. I'm posting this up only because this is a relatively local thread and figgered there might be some interest. I put my '08 DRZ up on the board today. I rode this at Hanging Rock last year and in CO last fall. Not a Street Queen, but still lots of miles left in her. If this ain't the right thing do, mea culpa....

Unless I overlooked something, you don't list a location that isn't some attempt at smartassery.

Subject line of his ad says SW Ohio/Cincinnati although I did get a kick out of 'your girlfriend's bedroom'

Sorry, Meef. Didn't realize you had exclusive rights to that on this board. My bad....

Welcome to Ohio, I'm near Chillicothe, retired, and can ride about anytime!
Cruise, adventure, off-road, or scooting, you name it.
Great about riding anytime. My work schedule is weird leaving me with both last half of day on Fri. and Sat. to ride. Glad that might fit someones schedule.

Ideas for that diesel. Visit suckindiesel.com/thingy
