    Haven’t bought it yet so I’ll have to update but I definitely think a street and trail dirt bike will make life so much better, especially where I live.

    I’ll save so much on gas. All the places nearby like local restaurants, friends houses, and my job all have back roads and trails I can hop on to get to faster. It’ll be so much more fun. When something does break or need replaced it’ll be easier to do myself. A bike will just be so much better.

      You need to PRACTICE and be constantly aware of just how shit knobby tyres are on roads, just how shit road tyres are on trails and how overwhelmingly mediocre dual purpose tyres are at both… If you want to stay upright.

        More often than not I’ll want to stay upright. I’ve rode my 125 on the road a few times even though I’m not supposed to and it’s not too bad but that is only a 125. I’ll definitely be playing it safe for a while, on the roads at least
