    Tricked out. The 640A is no more (Enjoy her jwashburn) - there's a new girl in town. :evil

    TE510, street legal, 60+ (?) HP, Ti exhaust, 258 pounds. This will take some getting used to. :lol3

    Can't say I am much the sticker fan, but they don't bother me that much. Besides - you shoud see some of the other plastics - they are covered.


    One of the first orders of business will be to get a larger front sprocket. :lol3

    To be honest - I was wondering when my next "sick day" would be..... Brown's Camp on a weekday is calling me. If I can simply keep you in view (as opposed to finding you napping at the next turn-off like last time) - I'll be happy. :D

    Take it out where theres no cops to get the wheelies out of your system,I am too much of a dirt squirrel to be trusted on the street with one of those. Nice rig though.

    Hey DireWolf, it was great meeting you. We'll have to get out for a ride soon. I've been offline all day wrenching on the bike. I'm a tinkerer and I can help but pull everything apart :D The fact that it didn't need to be pulled apart is no reason not to do it! I put the Orange plastic on.

    I love that Husky and it hurts to see it go but this is a much better all-around bike for what I need. The fact that it went to such a great home dull's the pain.

    Hey Wachs! How the hell are you? Speaking of pain, my back still isn't quite right from my get off at China Hat. One of the things that pushed me toward the 640 was you reminiscing about yours on the trip to the Summer Lake hot springs.

    Sweet bike... I was watching someone's youtube video riding one of those last week and was amazed. So much power and awesome offroad manners. The guy kept pulling up the front end as he accelerated onto straights... Sometimes, I wish my KLR could even pull a wheelie. On those it looked effortless.

    Congrats on the new ride.

    Dig it - nice to meet you finally as well. I hope that when the weather lightens up a bit - we can get out into the Coast Range.
