A little background info here, I rode dirtbikes almost my whole life up until 2 years ago this month. I was riding a trail here around my house and I wrecked and broke my leg right below my knee and it also tore my ACL. After being off work for almost 2 months, I decided I couldn't afford for that to happen again so I sold off everything I had motorcycle related and bought a Jeep.

I have had a lot of fun with the Jeep, but I have had an itch I just haven't been able to scratch here lately. Yesterday I found a 2003 400ex on craigslist for $800 that needed a timing chain. Well I got the guy talked down to $600 before even seeing it and went and picked it up. It looks just like you can imagine a $600 bike would look. It needs some work but my goal is to have it ready to ride by fall and ride all winter and spring to prepare for the Snowshoe GNCC next summer.
