Especially the respect in a certain aspect. We all looking out for other bikers. The infamous "wave" is always great to see in the world of bikers,,, true bikers on the roadways.
Yeah, I'm thinking dirt, too. When I was using the mini dirt bike crf 70. Just for a few days. I got use to using the front brake anyhow those three days bc obviously the foot brake was kinda difficult to mash down with bigger feet than a typical youngster that the bike is intended for.
So now I'm still looking at the yamaha TW200 for the big rear tire for around the farm. Yet will still check out a test drive on a Honda, Kawasaki and yamaha 250 or less for being an agile trail bike. So smaller yet powerful low range is a must in first 2 gears as I don't need speed whatsoever. And yes I'll get proper gear as well. I don't my knees and elbows and shoulders messed up. Helmets.... There's a wide variety for all kinds of crazy money.
Hayfields will be my perfect playground to get the hang of how the bike will really show its true colors. Plus I will have a softer landing that dirt road or trail typically...
Thanks again to all of you for your input.
If any more questions come to mind once I test drive or find someone that has the size bike I woukd want to get... Maybe I can leave them the keys to my truck just for collateral if they are unsure with me taking their toy fifty yards and back to them. Only makes sense, doesnt it?
There are two within a few miles of here but they are distant neighbors that may be unsure with me test driving theirs for a short distance. I think they are both Hondas. Not quite sure what size engine. But soon I will ask them when I catch them out ridingto talk it over how they like it and if they are willing to sell to get a bigger bike.
