I have a sort of dilemma. This summer I have raced my first MX races on my EX. It has a stock motor, stock arms and axles. Everything is stock minus what is in my sig. Heres my problem. I really like racing MX, but there is no way I'm gonna be able to compete unless I do some serious work. Basically some good motor work and +arms and axles. But where I live we ride trails 3-4 times a week. I don't want to quit racing because I really like it and feel I can get good, but then again there is nothing like hitting the trails all day and hanging with your buds. If I mod it for MX I will have to quit that seeing our trails can't accomodate a bike that wide or low to the ground. I would like to do both and swap out everything, but I know that will become a hassle and swapping parts out 2-3 times a week would cause premature wear on parts. I can't afford a second bike and if I go MX I will probably just get a new bike all together when I get money because with all the new stuff, modding an EX is like beating a dead horse. Is anyone else faced with this problem and what do you do?
