Tech head
I enjoy wrenching on cars, trucks appliances and bikes. The 250r is my 5th bike. I had back surgery and could no longer feel comfortable handling my klr650. I am 5,8 and the back strength was missing at first. So I decided to go back to street bikes with the 250r.

Typical Danmoto exhaust, Pirelli Rosso II tires, Dyno jet kit, new brake EBC, New Throttle Cable, New NGK sparks, K&N air filter, and that is all sine I purchased with 9k miles. Still needs a wash I know, but it has been cold here. Getting ready for spring. More to do I am sure. But for now I am reading and reviewing.
