Hello all, Im a blue collar, full blown mid life crisis having new dirt bike owner. I bought a radrover e-bike and it completely resparked my dirt bike aspiration of my youth. Now I'm not trying to Mx...I just want some moderate adventure riding with some technical stuff. Problem is I live in the plains of Illinois and there is hardly anything near by. So I ran out and bought a 2020 KLX250S camo! I'm loving it so far but I have SO many questions! And in addition to being completely green on a dirt bike, I've also never posted on forums or followed any forums regularly...so this whole process is bran new to me too!
So with that all being said, I'm digging for answers in here. I'm not finding a lot of what I need but the new members questions seem to be more for me. I can tell already that I may have a thirst for something with more power but I know I can mod the 250 for more. Either way I have to have a street legal ride so I can get to whatever a trail exists. I look forward to chatting with you guys and finding out all I can about adventure riding.
