So I took my 250R out the other day for the second time to shake her down. Man did she run good. I fixed the clogged jets issue and took it out to Carnegie.

Carnegie is comprised of Hill Climbs, Flat Ground, Whoops, Dry River Bed, and a MX Track. All you need in one place. Here are some photos:

Sorry if any are out of focus.

All loaded up and ready to roll

The first hill, note how small the 2 humans standing on top are. There are more hills, even higher behind this one.

That place looks awesome. I've seen places that look like that while driving and wish I could get out and ride.

Nice stock machine you have there, I'd advise about not riding with the original cover just in case something happens or covering it for a little protection. I took my stock seat off and put a gripper seat on because I find riding on vinyl intollerable.

sweet riding area! looks like early crusty or terra firma was shot there, but I would guess alot of Cali looks like that.

nice

Nice quad man, That looks like a dope place to ride. I love hills. Rip up most of them in 3rd gear I bet? Make the front end light, It'll just happen to pop up from time to time.

I love that shirt, where did you get it? Where can I get one man?

I have some video too and I will have to upload it to a host, It shows exactly what you were saying about getting the front up in the air. Actually the hills are really steap and I have to use second. If I had newer tires I could use third.

I am taking my wife out tomorrow to learn. I will post photos later.

Here are some from today, DONT WORRY I DID NOT CUT THE ORIGINAL PLASTICS....I got these from E-Bay...

Yeh so where did you get the shirt man, I want one!

And look at his stock exhaust, is that factory, it looks like CR250 exhaust instead of 250r exhaust you know wut I'm saying, It doesnt' go forward and make a 180 degree turn, it makes 2 90's and goes up like the bike, not like aftermarket.

Yeh man, that'd be cool, I was at a party and a guy was airbrushing shirts and I had him air brush 250r on the front he was real good so it looks cool.
