    the only thing about the trailer in a bag, is it does not provide much protection for the bike.

    Not bad, can you get them through work?

    btw- I thought you were buying a turbo? vf34? but your location says looking for an LGT...I'm confused

    Yes through work. Umm well Dave in a perfect world I would have bought a LGT but I didn't so more than likely I will think about the modding of the silver thing before I pull the trigger ...

    Yeah it's a dirt bike though, so it's no stranger to being dumped in the woods. :biggrin:

    Too heavy, imho. Those would be better suited for mountain or open desert riding.

    Most of the hare scramble guys are on yz125/250s (modded for woods of course) or the smaller displacement KTMs like the 200/250xc or 144/250sx (modded).

    Pingers 4 lyfe, y0! :p

    Speaking of riding, I took a pretty nice spill in 3rd gear on Saturday up in Gilbert. Apparently big sheets of ice and singletrack don't mix well. lol.
