Default Hello all from N. IL!

Whats up Kawasaki people? My name is Chris and I am going to pick up a 2006 KLX250 w/4000mi. What leads me to the Kawai is interesting. Back in 2005 I purchased my home in an area that is motorsports friendly....well supposed to be. At that time I also accosted my 05' Z400 quadsport. Being employed at the time, I also had the money to travel to ride my quad, pay @ riding areas, etc.. Finding out the hard way, my neighborhood is not so motorsports friendly via a couple of tickets. I also found out the joy stealing friend of the cops lives 3 houses down. Basically the typical too-much-time on my hands old man that thinks he owns the neighborhood. Keeping in mind when I got my tickets, it was a blizzard w/ 6+ of snow on the streets. I live 3 blocks from the lake and was trying to get there. So, I haven't ridden my quad in a year and have had no luck selling it. I figured I'm not going to give it away, so I will trade it for a DS. I had an 02' DR400s and sold it.On Sunday I am going to trade the quad for the KLX. I'll plate it and have no problems

Smart thinking from the sounds of it in your locale. Bummer, but that happens around here as well.

Riding bikes for 24 years, I really miss the dirt bike aspect of riding. I have a 2008 Strom 650, but it has limited jumping/off road capabilities. Everyone likes a street legal dirt bike

Hey Chris welcome to the forums. You'll love the KLX. It uses the road to get to the trails. no trucking it. Well once in a while you need to truck it, but still. LOL
