[QUOTE="cnielse5, post: 1028203, member: 59291"] I just read the Dirt rider rag update on the build off and they did not have a clue what we are doing here. Are we keeping everything a secret on purpose? here is what the article said: The invites went out, and after the slight fog of confusion lifted, five different message boards have begun their cyber-builds. Each message board, Thumpertalk.com, KTMtalk.com, CRFsOnly.com, Dirtrider.net and our own, Dirtrider.com, have begun working together to design their ultimate bike which will be featured in Dirt Rider magazine. The challenge of the Internet Bike Build is for each board to discuss and design a bike that best represents the members of the forum. And not only that, but actually build it and get it to us by April 1. Each bike will be reviewed by the Dirt Rider staff in the conditions for which it was built. The Internet Bike Build is not a direct competition between the boards, but rather a project to see what each site comes up with as the bike that best represents their members. Check out the progress on each site so far: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ThumperTalk.com Spawning from a DRZ400S, Thumper Talk is ready to surprise everyone with a "DRZ475TT" - street legal, but also an off-road weapon. This bike will be able to do it all from trail riding to supermoto. While most sites have just decided on a base model and purpose for their bikes, the over-achievers on TT already have a long list of mods from suspension and motor right down to lights and tires. I guess we can plan on seeing theirs arrive first... KTMTalk.com The "in-it to win-it" KTM crowd has chosen the 300 XC-W as the base model for their ultimate pumpkin. It looks like theirs will also be an off-road bike, and most likely a seriously competetive one. The many discussions on KTMtalk.com about the Dirt Rider Internet Bike Build are still buzzin, so if you want to get your $0.02 in, there's still time. CRFsOnly.com I'll give you two guesses what this board is building. That's right, a KDX200. (I'm kidding, of course.) CRFsOnly will be starting with the venerable Honda CRF450X, and building the off-road bike of their dreams. Jetting is at the top of their mod-list, and they're quickly working their way down to everything from suspension to accessories. Dirtrider.net Apparently I "do not have sufficient privileges to access this page," on the Internet Bike Build discussion on Dirtrider.net, so their progress shall remain a mystery. We'll just call their bike a wildcard. Maybe they'll complete the rainbow with a Kawasaki... whatever they're building in there will be a welcome surprise. DR Internet Bike Build Do you think the Dirt Rider YZ250 motor should be stock, or overbore? Stock YZ250 motor Max Power YZ285 Dirtrider.com - Join in the Build! Our very own boards are busy at work on the Dirtrider.com YZ250 - a GP-style bike that is a competitive off-roader with motocross versatility. Our boards are still busy discussing the direction of the YZ250, with the latest decision of the motor mod still pending. Join in the DR.com build by voting right now on whether the motor should be stock or bored to 285cc. Let's get this going so we can put Jimmy to work on the build! I think that we should que them in.
