That bike looks cool as $hit man.

I have yet to ride a supermoto, but from what this KLX feels like now, I can only imagine the fun. I tell my buddies all the time, I cant belive how easy it is to flip it around, its so light. Its like the time I decide to lean into a turn, its leaned over and turned already. I love the balance of it.
I just dont see how I can have both. And for now the dirt has more pull then the street.
But if I happened to find a 450EXC . . . . . .
and then some wheels. . . .

I can't wait for winter to end. The wheels I brought second hand, had to offset the 150 to limit chain rub. I have almost all the supermoto goodie's just a few thing's on backorder. This will be my first summer on the 17's, just hope I feel like I'm in my teens again.

Did you get them from a shop there in Canada? I think I may be the source of those to the shop you got them from.

www.vancouversupermoto.com Yes they're in canada. They are friendly, was going to order a set from them until I found these ones used. Gave me extra to spend on stainless brake lines front and rear, and my favorite that 320mm rotor (if it wasn't on my bike I'd sleep with it under my pillow) I love the look of supermoto. I may not ride like a pro but I'm going to try. There's some twisted, rolling, roads around that I like to hit. My ride to work may increase an extra half hour.

Just have a question about what you did to cover the holes on the rear fender where the tool bag was. I have a few ideas but nothing to effective yet.

Replaced the complete frender with a kx 250f and tirmed it to fix in the frame. I'm not sure if you can find a red kx frender but I'm sure a honda one would work.
