Bought it for $2700 with 650 miles on it, orig owner was an older guy who trail rode it. He didn’t care to much about how it looked but it sure ran good. I then bought a baja designs street legal kit for it. After 4 trips to DMV it was taged and ready to ride. Put about 1200 miles on it in 2 months until i brought it downstairs for the winter.

Heres how it sits now

I am droping everything off at powdertech on monday - everything is going black. From there i am re-build the bike top to bottom. New Excel 17" rims, FMF exhaust, all black plastics, clarke tank, protaper bars/clamps. I want it to be spotless and functional on the street. I love messing around in office parking lots, and doing endless wheelies. I will be ordering alot of my parts for myself for christmas so keep looking for updates

Fixed. :aww

Yeah I’m pretty set on buying one, I want to get a KTM 450 or a KXF 450 and convert it. But if I come across a deal on a DRZ or YZF/WR i’ll prolly pick it up.
