I read the other thread the other day and figured I would start my own!
A little hstory:
I have always loved the Green bikes and when my son first started riding back in 2005, I bought a 1997 KX 250 to ride with him. I eventually sold it and got into rock crawlers, UTV's, and everything else. Then, when I moved to the desert, I found another 1997 KX250 that was an ex-motocross bike (as in raced). I picked it up for $750 and rode the hell out of it for a couple of years. I added an IMS desert tank, bark busters, ASV levers, new tires, and all the usual goodies to ride in the desert with my son on his 1996 KX125.
Last year (2015) we raced my 1970 Husqvarna 400 Cross at the NORRA 1000 and took the KX down as a chase bike. Unfortunately, a friend of mine had mixed some Autozone 2-stroke oil in the gas, so I blew it up.
By this time I lived in North Carolina and the bike was at my sons house in EL Paso. I decided to have the old girl shipped out, and build a KX300 for my son to race in the 2016 Norra 1000 since we were taking the Husky back down.
Ok, enough of the Chit Chat....
