Well I finally got a new bike... I have been bikeless since March. Since I started riding again in 98 I have gone from a DR350 to a 380EXC to a FC550 to a 380SX and now I have a 525SX. So I have gone from a 4-stroke to a 2-stroke back to 4 then to a 2 again and now back to 4-stroke...... Well I think I finally found the bike for me. The only way I can explain it, is that its a perfect combination of the 380 and the 550.. It has tons of big bore power, but its not very torky like the 550. Its more revy. It has less compression braking than the 550, which is really good thing (my biggest gripe about 4-strokes)... It feels very light. Lighter than the Berg. I think this bike will be very forgiving like my 380's were. Right now my only complaint is the 4-speed. She runs out of gear real quick...
I thought I would be a little more rusty than I was. So other than being totally out of shape, I felt pretty good. Im looking foward to getting the suspension done. Hopefully I will be back up to speed in a month or 2.
