[QUOTE="Patman, post: 1021204, member: 16962"] While I still really dig my KXR284 (I better since I built it for me!) I think given the parameters of [b]ultimate[/b] and [b]do it all[/b] plus money doesn't seem to be an object in this little exercise there is one really good starting point. The Service Honda CR500AFX. It's reasonably light since it is a 2 stroke 500 in a CRF250X chassis which also makes it a pretty darn nimble mount as well and I just don't think power is an issue. Until you have ridden an open class 2 stroke that is well setup don't think they are all 600 pound gorilla's with a tooth ache. There's great low end for those tight trails and PLENTY of power for climbing crazy hills or blasting in the sand or impressing the heck out of Tim Allen [b]Arr, Arr, Arr, ARRR![/b] :think: Then of course you have the mega cool factor of having a hand built Honda that can be delivered to you with a vast assortment of modifications. What else would make the AFX the ultimate bike or at lease the ultimate starting point? I don't know that it get's much more low maintenance that a CR500 engine. No frame "paint" to worry about (unless you want SH to powder coat it for ya').. Many stock pieces from various Honda models fit up so you shouldn't be hanging out in the cold if you bust a radiator or something similar. A monster lighting coil and the juice to power it plus pretty much whatever else you stick on it "stock". Give me a little while and I'll come up with some ideas to make the ultimate bike even mo' betta'! :) [/QUOTE]
