Hope I don't sound too pedantic, but that's an off road bike, as it's got no lights or indicators, right? Are you talking about track bike? Like taking up supermotoing?

Saw the exact same road legal bike today, whizzing past. Let me confirm; they sound like a monster. Twisted Evil I have a feeling I saw the same one a few months ago as well; I can also confirm they wheelie, very easily. Laughing

Go for the Super Duke - the dog's danglies and mental to ride Twisted Evil . If I was chosing my next bike it would either be that or the GSXR1000.

The 525EXC has Electric and Kickstart.

Presume the 525MX (if such a thing exists) are kickstart only.

I would go for the 300EXC - 2 stroke with similar power but less weight.

My KTM350 Enduro 2 stroke could be interesting with road rubber; but not sure how long it would last.

My brother used to have a 380 2 stroke, he took the 640 for a spin and he said it wheelies good, he said they are quick bikes, i am gonna buy a super moto myself.

Have to be careful when wheelying the 300 2smoke, they have a habit of destroying the rear tyre instead of lifting the front.

destroying the back tire can be just as fun Razz lol!!

i tried doing a burnout on my tzr 50, got up into 3rd, that was my first burnout and i changed gear :S :S :S

From watching the videos of burnouts on video i think u just follow what you see or the bikers instinct kicked in Razz

ohh it was good fun though!! lol

Rear tyre should be fine if it's a road one.

I did end up on my arse trying to wheelie my 350 over bumpy ground with knobbely tyres though - didn't hurt at all though, which was nice Smile.

Could be tempted by a Supermoto at some point, though not for a while yet.

Yoko, I think it's about time your restrictors fell out.
