Thought i'd share my supermoto track bike for those of you who are interested. I strongly recommend doing a few supermoto track days to learn how to REALLY ride fast. Even if it's just a little xr100! Enjoy the pics!
Never owned or rode a dirtbike before last summer. I work at a Honda shop so I can trade it out pretty easily Figured it was a good starter bike... The one time i've rode this thing, the power was incredible. It seriously is comparable to my CBR on the low end.
If I must... Hahaha. :th_salute:

I had a street legal 2005 Honda CRF450X supermoto for about a year but then traded it for my current 2006 Honda CBR1000RR last year. I am liking the CBR, but sure do miss the supermoto. It was rock solid and a blast around town.
It just wasn't very practical, but when is a supermoto ever practical, right? Plus, I couldn't justify 3 bikes in the garage. Maybe someday I can justify a 3rd bike. However, I think my next supermoto will be a KTM 525 EXC or KTM 500 EXC.
Don't get me wrong, the Honda 450X is a rock solid street legal supermoto, but just wish it had a bigger motor for a big guy like me and a 6th gear. Yeah, I know they make big bore kits, but I like things straight from the factory.
Just replace the titanium valves in the CRF with kibblewhite stainless steel valves and you are set other than regular oil changes.
Also, I will admit that I felt more stable and safe riding the supermoto full out then riding this CBR at half it's top. It made me an instant hooligan. If you want to feel like a kid again, then a supermoto is for you.
