I'll try to make a long story short (not my strong suit): some of you are familiar with my friend Dennis, who passed away late last year and was known here as dgorms. Dennis never met a motorcycle he didn't want to own. I was on the horns of a dilemma the other day, trying to decide if I should buy a used dirt bike as an upgrade for my son (1990 Honda XR200R now, looking at a 2002 KTM 200MXC), and my wonderful wife Laura asked: what would Dennis do? I'm picking it up tonight.

You'll love the KTM. I did a similar last year and bought a 2005 KTM 250EXC 'for my son'. It is an absolute beast and a blast on the trails. Almost too much bike for tight trails, but hey I don't want to sound like a wimp.

Oh, get it; bought a new '94 300EXC and it was too much. I never did really gel with that bike, and bought a'99 200EXC that I'm still riding. Fastest bicycle I've ever been on!

Trying my seat on the MXC while making a shopping list: tires, fork seals, front wheel bearings...

I had a plated 08 200xcw.  It was an awesome bike for the woods in PA.

I love it!  And as a bonus, it's going from a 4 stroke to a 2 stroke.  Should be tons of fun.
