Yesterdays lesson, when your scottish neighbor pulls up on his four wheeler drinking a beer and says " hey have you been down the power line, its not muddy at all" he is lying.





I sunk it to the frame and had to lift it out a couple times. Also fell on my azz in the mud trying to get it out and lost my boots and had to dig them up too. Im sore this morning, Im too old for that crap.

You are partially correct, some holes I would just twist it and bail off to get it through and end up on my back in the mud. At least then I didnt have to dig me AND it out.


Theres a very FINE line on that thing between enough throttle to look like a genius and "oh ****, Im hurt". Im trying to err on the side of caution. I know Im "only" 35 but things hurt more now than they once did.

Im going to get some riding videos as soon as I rig up a helmet mount for my camera. This thing is NASTY the audio Ive tried to get of the engine really doesnt do it justice. Everyone Im sure is familiar with the old Black Max Mercs and how badazz they sound at idle out of the water, well this thing makes that sound like a fart from Charlies wore out sphincter.

He wasn't lying, there's just a hell of a difference between 4 wide tires and 2 narrow ones... LOL

My dad rides a 1500 goldwing and rode the KX yesterday for about 1minute. Scared the chit out of him and he got off. He couldnt hardly get on it and said "its too high". I said they aint for sitting on, they are for GOING. LOL


He road my 750 Katana once too, scared him. He think his 6 cylinder GW is "fast" but now has a better understanding of power to weight ratio.
