If you ask nice they may not laugh at you. ;D

It's not the laughing that bothers me...

It's not knowing who's full of shit and who isn't.

I've got that covered here at least ;D

525exc here.  Nothing much to compare it to, tits my first dirtbike.  It's been a trouble-free blast so far!

I would trade the ss for one of those. Even a pink one.

I'm not really wanting this for dirt...

I want street wheels and rubber on it :D

Go with the SMC 690 then.  [evil]
Woohoohoohoo! Two personal records! For breath holding and number of sharks shot in the face.

Monsterlover

Lotsa $$$ for those.

I was offered the 530 with both street and dirt rollers, ktm unobtanium triples, pipe etc for $5k by one of the owners of the local ktm dealer...

Low miles/ hrs too.

I think a 690 would run me more...

Adjusting the valves every 20 hours and changing the oil in half the time is a pain....which is why I no longer bother putting the SM setup on my 525.
