RE: your other ride...
My other ride is a '97 Ford Ef-One-Fiddy Flareside. That's what they call the stepside, BTW.
I am pleased to announce, however, that since I picked up my KLX250S on Thursday, 8/17, I have only driven my truck once. That was to pick up a large cabinet. I don't think that I could have managed that on my little green machine.
I am about to flip 400 miles on my odo on the KLX. With the gas mileage that I get in my truck (plus having to run premium), those 400 miles would have cost me $80. With the KLX, though, they have only cost me about $6000 (including mods).
Not a bad deal in my book.

RE: your other ride...
My other rides are as follows. I have a 1989 ford ranger king cab 4x4 STX model. Its a pretty rare turck as I only see ford xlt rangers and have never seen another truck like mine. the other motorcycle besides the Klx is my 1200R model sportster. I've included a pic below for your viewing pleasure.

RE: your other ride...
Missing from the picture are my 86 Concours and my 74 Honda CB350F.
I love to ride, I love to ride, I love to ride!
About the only time I ever take out my 1998 Ford F-150 XLT Supercab truck is when it is raining in the morning when it's time to head to work. I might be taking it one day this week because of Ernesto.
However, my V-Strom, which was delivered on June 13th, now has 7500 miles on it.
Bonafide - nice "Kit Car" - snicker, snicker! I gave up on cars since with my bad hip I can't slide under them any more. I would have liked to play on the 1/4 mile - you and your Cobra vs me and my Dodge Colt! Would have been fun!
