Well the grom went in for a trade in at Honda of Covington and I came out with this! A 2014 Honda CRF250L man she sure does ride nice biy only gets 73mpg... Now i can learn some trails too.

You are so lucky you can ride those cool little bikes. I keep reading your posts and I keep getting jealous. When I get on anything that small, I look like a giraffe riding a clown scooter. I had to learn on a 750, and I barely fit on it. And bikes in my size only get 30-40 mpg.

Here's my Magna. Bought it a year ago.

Only 73? I was stoked with 40-50 on my 600.

Sent from my truck doing 85 down the interstate.

Best place to shoot near Covington may be Honey Island.

Wasn't it a bike picture thread on here or was that another forum I was thinking of?

Nice bike by the way and welcome to the addiction.

Oh, and SportsBud, great choice on the CRF250L. Take a little care of it and it should last you years. There's no backroads now you can't take!

Congrats. Man those dual-sports look fun, been thinking about one myself for a while

Also she does have some pretty good acceleration up to 60 she shoots right up, in the city I am beating Beamers when they gun it, seems the top speed on flat ground is 75 or so, enough for short hops on the freeway(heard putting a 13T front sprocket allows her to go 80 sustained may just do that if I have to some freeway trips)... oh and Cochise you should try out a dual sport they sit pretty high, I am no small guy 6 foot 1, and I sit really comfortably on the bike... But I do have long legs, Only downfall I have is she does not brake very fast, kinda scary at first. And if anyone wants to ride her just feel free to PM me, and I need to get out some on trails... but slowly at first... I am really missing the 120MPG of that Grom...
