Lights, a license plate and a mirror wouldn't cut it IMO. How these are even allowed on the road is beyond me... I'm still serious about what I posted on facebook.

An assault rifle on the street is safer than this. You could stop someone from using the automatic weapon, it would require a special forces unit to get someone to pull over on this nonsense.

I have less than $1600 invested.

Warp9 wheels/rotors, PMP/Renthal sprockets, DID chain, TM Designworks slider kit, UFO fender, ContiAttack SM tires, Bridgestone SM tubes...

The real expense has been fighting with the website I ordered the wheels from because they screwed up my sprocket sizes and never sent the GREEN fender I ordered. I highly do NOT recommend Motostrano for your supermoto needs. The guy is a lying cheating stealing douchenozzle.

I've been on the fence about getting a wheel-swap kit for my Husky. I just don't know if it's worth the time, money and effort. I can have plenty of fun on knobbies.

I have a SM calibrated gauge cluster already. There's a guy selling wheels off of the factory SM630 for $600.

Is this a new full-time set up or are you going to switch back and forth with the dirt stuff?

Switching

It takes about 2hrs I think now that I have a system down. But we really only ride ONCE a week anyway and worse case we're keeping my 250F which is already setup for me so I can change the suspension clickers if I want to take it out midweek for MX.

Or I can just ride my 65 which is just as fun as any big bike.

I got lazy switching back and forth with the YZ, so now I just goon it up with knobbies on the asphalt. Well at least until it dumps me on my head. Again.
I agree on the little stuff. I steal the kid's 85 every chance I get.
