Just looking at some of Erik's more recent patents, and noticed some new pics of the dirt squirter I never saw before. http://www.freepatentsonline.com/20090008179.pdf | ||

Field of dreams.... If they build it, I will run it. | ||

Looks geared a little high though... look at the rear sprocket. Maybe that was the "salt flats" edition  | ||

Need to be able to run the highway to get to the really fun local dirt, that means 60-70 mph. | ||

any one tried the dirt conversion on a blast as a dual sport? | ||

I had a customer do it. She is riding the hell out of it. I probably should have gone that way DR650 front forks, wheel, brakes, really the entire front end. Chain conversion Swing arm from a 990 Ktm modified 18 rear wheel, 21 front, knobbies all around new taller shock, 13 inch air coil over Mid pegs mount it was about a 3k conversion in parts. Her bf did the labor, she got the bike for cheap and she is out running the hills with it. | ||

I will see if I can get her to send me some, she winters over down in Arizona. I had some on my phone, that took a cr@p on New Years. Honestly thinking of following her lead and selling the City-X | ||

I was lucky enough to actually hold the frame section for this bike in my hands. I also am patiently waiting for this bike to materialize! | ||

not unless Erik Buell Racing decides to 'race' supermoto Which I would SUPPORT I would buy one for the street, one for the track |
