the only time my car is in traffic is when it goes from school to mums work for the day other wise, from home to work theres one round about, and to school we take back roads cause it's quicker than going the main roads

my mate fitted an xt 500( i think it was xt, was the old twin shock frame) motor into his xr250 frame.. the thing would not ever pull up if you were pinging it flat to the boards out of second gear unless you dropped a few cogs and layed it over lol :lol: could wheelie 4th gear everywhere

i was always brought up on s**t 2 strokes without power band but when i got given an xr250 ive always loved them, have ridden a few husky 125 2 strokes and yz 250 2 strokes, the 4 stroke just seems better for an everyday rider, if i was racing id probably get a 2 stroke

i havent ridden in 3 odd years, need to get back on soon :|

ktm and yamaha are the only 2 stroke producers now, 4 strokes are getting alot fast now, fuel injection and the likes, i want to race a 450, first 2 stroke i rode was a cr125 and it blew me away with it's power to weight ratio, then a road an rm 125 and found it s**t house
