    You can always get a KX100 for next to nothing and ride it stock... At IMI you could keep up with the 450s for the most part if you can figure out how to ride it. They corner faster and cost $1200.
    Not a shred of evidence exists in favor of the idea that life is serious.

    It's funny you mention pain killers. I just got the results back from my MRI, ACL torn all the way through, maniscus torn, and a broken piece of bone that is hanging from a piece of cartlidge in my left knee.

    I knew something was wrong when my foot was pointed in the wrong direction after cornering my crf450 on the back track at IMI. But once i kinda popped my knee back in place i figured it was all good..... apparently i was wrong! lol!

    So it looks like complete reconstructive surgery and i may be putting off the supermoto quest till the end of the summer. What a bummer, oh well, shit happens!
