Finally broke down and bought a Honda...

...But it's not what you think :D

It's a 2000 XR250. Just the thing to get back on two wheels (been nearly two decades since I'd been on a dirtbike). Not too big, not too heavy, and not too powerful. Still, I'm rather certain I'll hurt myself soon enough....

I just got done flogging mine 65 Miles through the woods on Friday. Considering I haven't ridden it in a year and a half, that was painful!
P.S. The tank only holds 60 Miles worth of fuel!

That thing must be a torque monster, huh? Looks good, when are you taking it out?

I had an '87 XR250r back about a year ago, first (and only) dirtbike I ever had. I loved it, wasn't extremely powerful but that 4 valve RFVC motor was plenty enough for me. Never got hurt on it, just broke my ankle on a 3 wheeler instead lol. That looks like it's in decent shape, most of the time you find them missing most of the plastic, or, at least I do anyway. Nice score.
