Mikelly Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 ...Actually Santa (ME) wheeled and dealed on his CRF 150 minimoto and sold it for what he paid for it, and bought his business partner's Yamaha WR250 for $2200. He upgraded to a 2004 KTM450 with a bunch of boltons... Barry is racing this year in the Pikes Peak race in July. I think he is NUTTS!! I'll have it tomorrow and snap some photos for you all... I'll even "try" to post them here instead of my yahoo account. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big-phil Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 Cool! I have a friend that had a crf 150, with alot of the cr 80 big wheel upgrades on it. I love my crf 50, with a 88cc kit, 110cc head, big valves, 20mm carb-intake. Be carefull of that 250. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikelly Posted December 18, 2006 Author Share Posted December 18, 2006 Well I rode it for the first time yesterday for about an hour... I'm sore all over today.. That thing is a BEAST and a bit heavier than I'd expected... manhandling it takes a fair amount of Umph! Fortunately no crashes to report!

KTM-EXC Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Any pics of the 450f?? Im a KTM man myself! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikelly Posted December 19, 2006 Author Share Posted December 19, 2006 Nope. He hasn't brought it by yet to ride... He's also got a KTM 560 Supermoto... He corrected me today and told me it's a KTM 400...It's got about $800 in suspension upgrades and I think he bought it for about $3500. Rode the Yamaha this evening again for about half an hour... It's punishing the hell out of me in my tight and twisty woods trail... Throwing it around is truly Work. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
