Saw this just now on Craigslist, looks decent at a low price. It looks like a '81 due to the tank and sidecover being silver-gray. Do not reply to NWTT, use...
I think this is the SR that was offered a few months ago. If it is, I have not seen a scruffier SR. I've picked up much better bikes for $250. Maybe the...
Well, I survived the trip! 5,500 miles in two weeks. Up to the Arctic Circle, down to Anchorage, up to Dawson. We found about 800 miles of dirt road. XT500...
Rode the SR all weekend, (Note silly grin,) and decided to do the commute this morning. Fired first kick, warmed up, and off I went. Temperature was about 60....
Appreciated the offline reply from Steve, Was wondering how a valve clearance problem could have an effect with minimal temperature changes, but I was looking...
My old riding budddy from Kansas City had me buy him a 2005 KLR 650 to ride to Alaska. I found one in Bellevue with 200 miles and bought it for him and off we...

It's great to ride midweek, but some of us have jobs. Your a lucky bum. Congrats on the Alaska ride Mark. I'm kicking around doing a weekend or a long day in...
Anyone else headed to Anatone and the FSSNOC lunch on Sept. 10. Looks like 3 of us are going from Moses Lake, Me on my savage, Brother on his HD, and BIL on a...

I'm thinking of going... maybe leaving Friday afternoon, and be back in Snohomish Saturday night... Then IoV. Seems crazy, but maybe I will. Now to decide...

I've been looking at commuter bikes for those days when I won't get drenched going to work. My SR gets about 60 mpg, give or take. My old SL350 gets about 70, ...
CJ, It has been my experience that the engine needs to be the right size for the job to get the best fuel economy. Larger bikes obviously don’t do as well...
CJ, I used to ride a SR500 with a Supertrapp and a round slide 36mm carb. I would get about 50 mpg riding backroads and the occasional blast down the Hwy 512....
Hi Guys, I'm pickin up a new bike in a couple days and I wanted some advice from all you NWTTers. What do you know about the 1988 Honda NX650? Anything...
Thanks Don, I'm having a hard time finding out a lot of info on this bike. Weird. Because it seems like a good bike. I've tried Dual Sport News, Google, the...
Sure, I'll chime in. The NX 650 is a great bike and although I sold mine, I loved it. It was in mint condition with 12K miles and had been well maintained by...
Excellent! Thanks Mike! I feel good about this. But, you said it's not as powerful as a KLR650? My brother in law has a new one and I think it's kinda...
I gather it is a nice engine to install in the GB500. I do have a NEW Acerbis 21L tank for it in medium blue. Would like to find a home for it... $250. Mark...
I had one for about 3 years and should have never sold it. Wonderful bike. Nothing ever went wrong on it. I bought mine with 12K on it for $1,200 and sold it 3...
I'm selling my Honda XR250L. It 's a '94 model I bought new in'96. It has 3,400 miles. I took the tank and seat off it when it was new and I also have some...
