I miss my DR already. Love the CRF250L but the DR was old tech - easy to fix if need be, lighter, shorter, stone simple and incredibly fuel efficient. Sadly, it was also slow as molasses which is why...

As a newbie, I have to ask - how do you mount something like that fully loaded? I had a couple of step through Burgman scooters and that was a no brainer loaded up. Do you put your left foot on the...

These are large and CHEAP at $29 at tractor supply store. If you search for that brand name on ebay they come in different colors and configurations as well. I bought but returned as I checked my old...

Selling used bike

Yeah, every time I've bought or sold or consigned I feel like I've been screwed over. When the dealer pulls out that NADA book that doesn't consider mileage or condition or accessories you know...

So here's the CRF250L on day 1. I have about 400 miles on it and I have to say I think it's a keeper. I can't imagine needing any more cc's than this for bopping around. The DR200 was great but a bit...

I've got about 350 miles on the Honda so far and I have to say that if you want that little bit of extra power it's worth it. MPG is down to about 75, coming off the DR200 I'm not happy about that,...

Sorry, didn't read your post well. I'd drain off that extra 150 mils. Also make sure you have no gas in the oil, if you do you should add a real shutoff switch to keep your gas tank from draining...
