I've had my fill of electronic diesels. I fought my 01 diesel dodge for 3 weeks trying to diagnose a no start. If I ever need big power again, I'm going to go to a F-650 with a 12v cummins or other mechanical diesel.

I still have several of these if you need some for parts. I liked them but then I still watch black and white TV.

You must have been pissed when the Andy Griffith show switched to color in the sixth season.

Hey if any of you FFs are looking for the de facto OH ADV bike, the WR250R, a co-worker of mine is selling his 2012.

It has less than 900 miles, a few farkles and is $500 under KBB @ $5K

Yeah, I know you can get a lightly used 08-09 for $3K, but if you want something newer this is about as good as it is going to get.

They've been fuel injected since they were introduced in 2008

AFAIK mechanical diesels are extinct in newer vehicles.....thank you US EPA. And right now, rules are in flux about replacement engines for older vehicles.........

Anyone interested in a YZ250 two stroke, garaged the last 5 or 6 years. Waiting more details.

I have 1.5 more as spares. The .5 unit was a BMW Motorad with all the BMW shops in it. It was great until the screen started to frost over from the inside on a hot day. I don't think it was final drive failure related

Bring back the old Detroit 2 strokers. That was some diesel power.

Damn wind blew my bike over in the parking lot at work tonight

. Front turn signal busted and a couple more scrapes on the crash bars are the only damage. Must have been a helluva gust.

It's been howling here all night. Woke me up several times. My trash cans are probably halfway down the block.
