Get real Boonit,,,
If he bought one of those, he wouldn`t be able to join in on most of our events in NSW :whistle:

Aido does travel up sometimes,,,,

Aido,
My two bobs worth, the Berg 450 is a great piece of kit.
If I had the $$ i would have got one.
I did a heap of research and reckon its the ducks guts…

Cheers

Never thought I’d hear the words ‘I’m thinking Euro’ came out of your mouth mate. :laugh:

Good luck with whatever you buy. I wouldn’t think you’d go Berg again. Have a look at the Beta’s R model. Nice bike by all accounts and the ‘R’ model gets nicer suspension. What about Sherco? Excellent bike in my opinion and the 300 has WP suspension now.

1inarow gets his efi WR this week hopefully and we’ll get out for a ride soon enough. When this bloody rain eases up. He has always had WR’s so he’ll give a honest review of the bike.

Here’s another biased review on the EFI WR. 😆

To be honest i have never seen one in the five years i have been riding so i wouldnt even consider a RMX an option

[Jason AndersonMember]

Go with something totally different Aido.

get a Maico 700

no one will give you grief about the way you ride or your choice of bike.

all you have to say is, ” do you have the ‘big ends’ to buy and ride a 700 2T?!. when you do, then you can give me grief! “.

👿

or just go mental and build something like an Aprilia/RGV/ 2T twin into a an alloy framed dirt bike. and when they ask WHY?!?! just twitch and say “Cos i can, can your dirt bike do a dollar sixty five down the free way?? on knobbies? well can it?? huh?”. and i’m sure they’ll leave you alone for sure.

:huh: :laugh:

yeah i sure do at the moment Aido. i’d be out riding in the mud, but with only 40 fun tickets in the jar for the next fortnight after buying some upgraded medical equipment means i won’t be going far for a week or two.

just as well bench racing is free. :woohoo:

and with my TIG dying Tuesday i cant finish of the rust repair of an XC guard for a family friend P plater for road worthy. i’m lacking motivation to venture out into the gloom to see what i can turn my hand to to bide the time.

the V8 coverage doesn’t start until some time after 1pm. so i’m bored out of my brai….. um skull..

you can borrow my bike until you can get a look at the new W recked R ide

Spoke to a bloke today aido who went over to coffs last week end to test ride the new WR 450.he said it was unbelievable ….all good things come to those who wait.

Bol :woohoo:

Ha bol.

Do you know if they gave him a price..

..spud..

Spud

My local dealer rode at Coffs launch ( probably the same bloke that Bols spoke to and normally rides a 2 fiddy ) tells me it handles like a 2 fiddy. He said he had it on a middle of the range setting so that it wouldn’t pull his arms off and didn’t even notice the weight of the bike in the tight stuff.
I believe the shop is going to demo a bike and I will be taking it for a ride before I make my final decision on whether to stay with a 450 or drop down to a 250.
As for price, he is quoting $13750 on road which is on par with other brands.
If the bike is true to it’s design specs it will be well worth the wait.
